Kutlubey Campus Pond - Greenmetrics eng

The Kutlubey pond, which has become one of the symbols of Bartın University's Kutlubey Campus, is an important implementation carried out within the scope of the university's "Green Campus" project. The main starting point of this project was to solve the high groundwater and drainage problems in the campus area, along with collecting rainwater from building roofs.

This area, located at the entrance of the Kutlubey Campus, was also evaluated as a prestige area, aiming to offer visual beauty. Implemented within the framework of the Green Campus studies that started in 2017, this pond remains an exemplary sustainability project, created not just as an aesthetic element but also with its ecological, social, and economic dimensions taken into account.

Main Features of the Pond:

*Rainwater Management: Solving the drainage problem by collecting rainwater originating from the roofs of the buildings and impervious surfaces within the campus.

*Sustainable Water Source: Using the accumulated rainwater for irrigating green areas, thereby ensuring water conservation.

*Ecological Balance: Contributing to the preservation of the campus ecosystem and biodiversity by creating a natural habitat.

*Education and Activity Area: Offering a unique social and educational area that allows students to engage in water sports such as canoeing on the pond and conduct open-air classes.

*Aesthetic Value: Enhancing the university's prestige by creating a visual feast through landscape arrangements, given the pond's location at the campus entrance.
