Özet
Urbanization, which is defned as an irreversible global-scale problem nowadays, necessitates the foundation of new settlement areas. In general, no sufcient scientifc assessment and analysis were performed during these processes, and thus, various natural disasters cost the loss of many lives and properties every year. Nevertheless, considering the areas that are risky in terms of natural disasters during the selection of settlement areas might prevent a large-scale loss of lives and properties because of natural disasters. Within the scope of this study, it was aimed to determine suitable settlement areas in the Alanya district, which is one of the signifcant points of interest for tourists in our country and has a large population and new settlement areas because of this increasing population. Within this scope, besides the risks of food and landslide that are the most important natural disasters in the region, and a forest fre that is among the most signifcant risks for the region, also the biocomfort zones were included in the assessments. As a result of the study, it was determined that the most important natural disaster risk was fooding in a large portion of the region and that only 6.72% of the study area was suitable for settlement in terms of all the criteria examined in the present study.
