Abstract

The frost event that occurred in different regions of Turkey with the change of the climate zone deeply affects agricultural production. Accordingly, it is necessary to predict the regions and periods where frost risk may occur, according to digital models, in order to reduce losses in agricultural production. Study has carried out in the Susurluk basin, where the daily minimum temperature values of the meteorological stations in the basin were used. The days when frost is expected to occur at different probability levels in the spring and autumn periods were determined by geostatistical methods. The results obtained were determined by giving frost risk maps for 80%, 50%, 20% probability levels in the spring and autumn periods, together with the digital elevation map (DEM).
