Standard classification function, discriminant function, and constant coefficients for 41 morphological char- acteristics were determined for two geographic Turkish honeybee subspecies (Apis mellifera anatoliaca and A. m. caucasica) used intensively for commercial queen rearing. Then, the morphological characteristics of unknown worker bee samples from the Turkeli area – where commercial queen bee usage is common – were investigated. The model showed that the area was subject to genetic mixing because of commercial queen usage. The subspecies of 15 unknown test samples were predicted with 100% confidence, and the native bees from 25 of 30 samples from the Turkeli area were successfully predicted using the model developed. Using the model proved that there was a commercial queen bee introduction into the Turkeli area, mainly from the A. m. caucasica subspecies.

    D.Ü.Ziya Gökalp Eğitim Fakültesi Dergisi 5,67-106 (2005) SİNOP İLİNDE ETKİLİ BİR DOĞAL AFET TÜRÜ: HEYELAN One Of The Effective Natural Disaster İn Sinop: The Landslide Nevin ÖZDEMİR * Özet: Sinop ilinde en çok meydana gelen doğal afet türü heyelandır. Bu çalışmamızda Sinop ilinde pek çok yerleşmede hasara neden olan heyelanların nedenleri üzerinde durulmuştur. Afet İşleri Genel Müdürlüğü’nün verilere göre, 1960–2004 yılları arasında, Sinop ilinde 465 köye bağlı toplam 1828 mahallenin, 290 tanesi, heyelanlardan zarar görmüştür. Burada meydana gelen heyelanlarda arazinin jeolojik yapısı, eğim durumu, yağışlar gibi doğal çevre faktörlerinin yanı sıra yanlış arazi kullanımı, yol yapımı gibi yamaç dengesini bozucu insan faaliyetlerinin de etkisi olmaktadır. Anahtar Kelimeler: Doğal Afet, Heyelan, Yerleşme, Türkiye, Sinop. Abstract Landslide is the most occured natural disaster in Sinop. In this research, we focused on landslide which causes damage in housing locations in Sinop. According to data of the General Directorate of Disaster Affairs (GDDA), between 1960 and 2004, 290 of the 1828 towns in 465 villages were damaged by landslide. In addition to the geological formation, slope, and rainfall that are results of the natural environmental process; inappropriate land use and road construction are also regarded some of the most important characteristics that destruct the stability of the ground. Key words: Natural Disaster, landslide, Settlement,Turkey, Sinop 1. Giriş: Türkiye; jeolojik yapısını oluşturan kayaçlar, yer şekilleri ile iklim, hidrografya, toprak ve bitki örtüsü özellikleri nedeniyle çok sık afetlerle karşılaşan ve bu afetler nedeniyle önemli ölçüde can ve mal kayıplarına uğrayan ülkelerden biridir. Afet İşleri Genel Müdürlüğü’nün verilerine göre ülkemizde deprem, su baskını, heyelan, çığ ve diğer afetler nedeniyle son yüzyıl içerisinde 86 000 kişi hayatını kaybederken, 150 000 kişi de yaralanmış ve 600 000 konut hasara uğramıştır.

  • SINOP Ingilizce Kapak.Indd
    It is believed that Sinop, lying at the northernmost tip of a peninsula extending from the Anatolian landmass into the Black Sea, derived its name from the Queen of the Amazons, Sinope, who lived there once upon a time. According to another story, Zeus, the King of Gods was so enchanted by the beauty of the nymph Sinope, the daughter of the River God Asopus that he settled her in the earthly locale commensurate with her beauty and the city was named after her. With its history going back six millennia, its rich cultural fabric woven by the several civilisations it has nurtured, its pristine natural beauty and clear blue sea, Sinop, home equally of the philosopher Diogenes and the famed women warriors, the Amazons, remains unforgettable after you leave its shore. 2 Historical Heritage of Sinop Sinop owes its diverse cultural richness to its beautiful natural harbour-perfectly sheltered and calm, a haven from the tempestuous Black Sea. The strategic importance of Sinop Harbour brought Sinop to the fore as a centre of trade across millennia. The city’s strategic importance, however, lead to successive conquests, and each civilization that made Sinop its own adorned the city according to its own fashion, building fortresses, churches, temples, and mosques LQLWVYDULRXVTXDUWHUV7KHVLJQLÀFDQFHRI the harbour still lingers, although the galleys of Antiquity and the Middle Ages have been replaced with the modern sailing yachts and ÀVKLQJERDWVEXVWOLQJDWGDZQ'XULQJWKH season, Sinop Harbour is one of the most preferred stops for yacht tours, including KAYRA (The Black Sea Yacht Rally), and also hosts national sailing regattas.

The Trichoptera fauna of two provinces in the central part of northern Turkey, namely Sinop and Samsun provinces, are listed. They were poorly known prior to this study, with only seven species recorded (Sipahiler & Malicky, 1987; Sipahiler, 2004 and 2007). Most of the listed specimens were collected from the mountains. In the region, in Sinop province, two mountain ranges, the Küre and Ilgaz Mountains, run parallel to the coast, separated from each other by a large plain; the mountains become lower through Samsun province. In this area, 59 species were found belonging to 18 families; of these, 50 species are recorded for the first time in the region (Fig.

Sinop is at the northernmost tip of Turkey, in the middle of the Black Sea region. Archaeological excavations of the entire Sinop province have uncovered artifacts from the Bronze Age dating back to 3000 BC. Most ancient sources indicate that Mithridates is buried in Sinop. It is alleged that the Tumuli on the crest of the historical peninsula, called Boztepe in Sinop, could be the resting spot of Mithridates. There are three tumuli in this area known as ¸SahinTepesi Mevkii (¸SahinHill Site). In order to determine the location of the burial chamber of the tomb, Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) measurement methods were used, which is a geophysical method capable of three dimensional (3D) measurement and evaluation. In the area of the tumulus, measurements were made in a 57 electrode array using a 42 x 36 m (total 1512 m2) spread elec- trode pattern with 6m spacing.

    Sinop Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Dergisi Sinop Uni J Nat Sci 1(2): 59 – 68 (2016) ISSN: 2536-4383 Research Article Investigation of Solid Waste Handling and Collection System in Sinop Province Oylum Gökkurt Baki *a, Ahu Nogay b a Sinop University, Engineering and Architecture Faculty, Environmental Engineering Department, 57000, Sinop b Sinop University, Institute of Science, Interdiciplinary Environmental Heath Department, 57000, Sinop Abstract Solid waste amount increases day by day in parallel to rapid population increase, technological developments and rise of the living standards. The municipalities spend considerable sums for the collection, transportation and disposal of the wastes. A substantial part of these expenditures (85%) comprises waste collection and transportation services. In addition, just collecting these wastes and transporting them from various points of the city to the disposal areas does not mean that this problem is solved sustainably in terms of both economic and social terms. Accordingly, numerous studies and methods are applied in regard to the collection and transportation of solid wastes. The aim of this study was to investigate the urban solid waste collection and transportation system in Sinop province center. It was also aimed to create recommendation plans and solution suggestions for the elimination of handling/collection system problems existing in the solid waste management system in Sinop province center. Coordinates of all container locations have been recorded in the study. In addition, data including the number of collection staff, collecting vehicle capacities, the number of vehicles, container’s discharge minutes, vehicle discharge minutes and the number of workers were determined. These are the updated data and the data obtained by practical study for the Sinop Province.
