Özet

Plants are important components of native landscape should be handled in accordance with their features, enabling them to be recognized, defined and utilized in natural and cultural environments. Road corridors are the best places to observe changes related to succession and fragmentation in native vegetation in the mountainside. In the present study, carried out in the road corridors in the mountainside within the boundaries of Trabzon province in Turkey. It was aimed to define the vegetation visually and ecologically based on the native landscape features. While native plant compositions were ecologically defined, they were approached as an ecological corridor. Patch Analyses based on landscape metrics in the vegetation around this ecological corridor were carried out via GIS. As for visual studies, photographing, visualization and surveys were used to define the design elements and design principles of plant composition and the visual effects they had. Thus, come up in planting design, it was determined according to which design principle design elements came together and what kind of a visual effect appeared. In the final phase, the relationships between the values produced by ecological and visual parameters were stated. Consequently, some significant relationships were found out between patch analysis metrics and visual parameters, area metrics and potential effect of seasonal change of native compositions, habitat features and fragmentation values etc.
