Murat Gül

Prof. Dr. Murat Gül is a faculty member at the Faculty of Engineering, Department of Civil Engineering, Muğla Sıtkı Koçman University. His research focuses on geology, environmental science, coastal erosion, sedimentology, geotourism, and remote sensing.

Education: He holds a bachelor's degree in Geological Engineering from Hacettepe University (1995), a master's in Geological Engineering from Mersin University (2001), and a Ph.D. in Geological Engineering from Çukurova University (2004).

Research Interests: Prof. Gül investigates coastal sediment dynamics, geotourism potential, deep-sea sedimentation patterns, climate change impacts on coastal zones, and geotechnical properties of rock formations. His work often integrates field studies, geochemical analysis, and remote sensing tools.

Scientific Trends: Recent publications highlight his expertise in microplastic pollution in coastal sediments, grus deposit formation mechanisms, eco-toxicological risk assessments, and natural hazard evaluations using InSAR techniques. Collaborative studies span Turkey, Nigeria, and Pakistan.

• Scientific Awards: No awards explicitly listed.

Advising: Supervised 14 students on topics including microplastics, calciturbidites, mass wasting, and coastal geology. Grants: Participated in TÜBİTAK and international projects on environmental geology and remote sensing.
