Abstract

This study addresses a critical gap in understanding the vulnerability of port-hinterland connection (PHC) to sea-level rise (SLR) by developing an innovative assessment methodology. Combining the Coastal Vulnerability Index and Count Overlapping Connection Analysis, the research applies this approach to five ports and 18 industrial zones in Izmir, Turkey. Results reveal that 61 % of the study area falls within high and very high vulnerability classes, with 54 % of the road network in these zones. Notably, 77 % of high connection density segments overlap with high vulnerability areas, while 13 % of PHC is classified as high or very high vulnerability. Economic implications are significant, with potential reconstruction costs estimated at €1.12 billion for PHC and €14.2 billion for essential roads in high and very high vulnerable areas. This research provides critical insights for targeted investments, policy formulation, and long-term planning to ensure PHC resilience against SLR challenges.

海平面上升对港口-腹地连接脆弱性的综合框架：伊兹密尔

本研究通过开发一种创新的评估方法，解决了在理解港口-腹地连接（PHC）对海平面上升（SLR）的脆弱性方面的一个关键空白。结合沿海脆弱性指数和计数重叠连接分析，该研究将该方法应用于土耳其伊兹密尔的五个港口和18个工业区。结果显示，61%的研究区域属于高和非常高的脆弱性等级，54%的路网处于这些等级。值得注意的是，77%的高连接密度段与高漏洞区域重叠，而13%的PHC被归类为高或非常高漏洞。经济影响是巨大的，PHC的潜在重建成本估计为11.2亿欧元，高和非常高脆弱地区的基本道路的潜在重建成本为142亿欧元。该研究为有针对性的投资、政策制定和长期规划提供了重要见解，以确保PHC抵御SLR挑战。

期刊介绍： Transportation Research Part D: Transport and Environment focuses on original research exploring the environmental impacts of transportation, policy responses to these impacts, and their implications for transportation system design, planning, and management. The journal comprehensively covers the interaction between transportation and the environment, ranging from local effects on specific geographical areas to global implications such as natural resource depletion and atmospheric pollution. We welcome research papers across all transportation modes, including maritime, air, and land transportation, assessing their environmental impacts broadly. Papers addressing both mobile aspects and transportation infrastructure are considered. The journal prioritizes empirical findings and policy responses of regulatory, planning, technical, or fiscal nature. Articles are policy-driven, accessible, and applicable to readers from diverse disciplines, emphasizing relevance and practicality. We encourage interdisciplinary submissions and welcome contributions from economically developing and advanced countries alike, reflecting our international orientation.
