General Information Muratlı HEPP Project is located between two provinces (Sivas & Giresun) that’s why it has land parcels from both of these two districts. We can classify the entire area into three groups as private owners’ lands, village legal entity lands and forest areas. The project is located in a mountainous rural area at which there is not much vegetation on the lands utilized for the project. The district is not a densely populated area and the habitants of the two villages concerned do not live there in all the times of the year. The details of the land acquisition are explained below. Of the total 383,167.37 m² surface area of the lands, private owner lands are 228,099.24 m², village legal entity lands are 42,775.13 and the rest 112,293 m² belongs to forestry. First two groups of the lands were obtained by expropriation (private owner according to article 27, village legal entity according to article 30 of the expropriation law) and total surface area of the expropriated land is 63,490.26 m². The third group which belongs to Ministry of Environment & Forest (MoEF) has the land usage permission. Types of the private owner lands are generally gardens and fields and there are no 2 agricultural facilities on the lands, we can say these are pasture areas. Also there isn’t any facility on the lands belonging to the village legal entity. Total compensation amount for expropriation and for forest land utilization permission is 430,156.93 TL. • Sivas province, Gölova district, Yaylaçayı village: 1.

Giresun University, Alucra Turan Bulutçu Vocational School, Giresun 28700, Turkey 2. Karadeniz Technical University, Department of Biology, Trabzon 61080, Turkey Abstract: 20 localities were randomly selected in Eastern Black Sea Region of Turkey and samples were collected from around the beehives from April to September. Total of 4,640 dead adult worker bees were examined during the study. Total infection rate in worker bees was 21.23%. Nosema ceranae was identified in all localities with molecular techniques. Temperature and humidity values were measured from around the beehives during field studies. The infection rate of N. ceranae increased proportionally with increasing temperature and humidity factors. Humidity was more effective than temperature on the infection rate of N. ceranae. The seasonal activity of N. ceranae was studied. The highest infection rates were observed in June and July. N. ceranae infection rate was higher in localities that were in low-altitude than in localities that were in high-altitude. Key words: Temperature, humidity, geographical distribution, Nosema ceranae, Apis mellifera, Turkey. 1. Introduction approximately 50% in terms of honey production in Turkey [2, 3].

Although the intensity of the efforts varied greatly, place name change would continue through the end of the Ottoman Empire and on into the Republic of Turkey. By 1968, when a volume containing all the changes was published by the Interior Ministry, roughly thirty percent of settlement names in Turkey had been changed. Renaming continued sporadically until the 1990s. This thesis inquires into these attempts at name change in Turkey with a focus on how people responded to the changes in their everyday lives. The value of place names as formulated in human and cultural geography is explored in order to determine why people may have rejected or accepted the state imposed names. Place name change, rather than being approached solely as a nation-building project motivated by Turkification, is also considered as being a technique of governmentality.

THIS IS NOT A FESTIVAL. TRANSHUMANCE-BASED ECONOMIES ON TURKEY'S UPLAND PASTURES Nicolas Elias (Translated by Saskia Brown) ABSTRACT This article sets out to study how an instituted practice of pastoral societies has evolved under the industrialised, capitalist Turkey of the last decade. In the Pontic Mountains, in north-eastern Turkey, the celebrations that take place every summer on the upland pastures are some of the most eagerly-awaited events. Until recently they were related to pastoralism and transhumance. But, although pastoralism has collapsed, the number and popularity of these events is growing yearly. When the ethnographic study of the most famous of them (Kadirga) is related to recent social transformations in Turkey (migration, development of the culture industry, urbanisation, etc.), it becomes clear how such celebrations are instrumentalised by the new political economy.

  • Effects of Branch Number on Quality Traits and Yield Properties of European Hazelnut (Corylus Avellana L.)
    agriculture Article Effects of Branch Number on Quality Traits and Yield Properties of European Hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) Tuba Bak 1 and Turan Karadeniz 2,* 1 Crop and Animal Production Department, Mudurnu Süreyya Astarcı Vocational School, Bolu Abant Izzet˙ Baysal University, Mudurnu, Bolu 14800, Turkey; [email protected] 2 Department of Horticulture, Faculty of Agriculture, Bolu Abant Izzet˙ Baysal University, Bolu 14030, Turkey * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +90-530-203-88-66 Abstract: Despite being the world leader in the production of hazelnuts, Turkey’s nut yield per hectare is quite behind other producer countries. The main reasons for low yield are the completion of the economic life of hazelnut orchards and the lack of pruning following the technique. Hazelnuts are being grown with the ‘ocak’ system in Turkey. The ocak system is a bush-like growing technique that does not contain the main trunk but consists of shoots instead. It is necessary to maintain the optimum number of shoots per ocak to increase yield and quality in this system. The effects of different branch numbers on yield and fruit quality parameters of ‘Tombul’ and ‘Palaz’ hazelnut cultivars were investigated in Ordu ecological conditions. ‘Palaz’ had the highest yield per ocak in 8 branches (1460.19 g), while ‘Tombul’ had in the 5 branched ocak (2170.47 g). ‘Palaz’ and ‘Tombul’ had the highest fruit weights in 4 and 4–6 branches, respectively. The highest oil ratio of ‘Palaz’ was observed in 4 branches, while ‘Tombul’ had the highest in 5 branches. The highest kernel ratio was determined in 6 and 5 branches in ‘Palaz’ and ‘Tombul’, respectively.

Key words – biota, biodiversity, Karagöl Mountains Introduction Despite intense lichenological field activity in Turkey in recent years, many areas remain poorly known with respect to their lichen biota. As to Giresun province, until now 14 research articles on its lichen biota have been published (Aslan et al. 2002, Aslan & Yazıcı 2006, Duman & Yurdakulol 2007, Halıcı & Şenkardeşler 2009, John & Breuss 2004, Kınalıoğlu 2005, 2006, 2008, Kınalıoğlu & Engin 2004, Küçük 1990, Özgen et al. 2003, Steiner 1909, Süleyman et al. 2002, Yazıcı 2006, Yazici & Aptroot 2008). However, these studies still do not give an adequate picture of the lichen biota of Giresun as new fieldwork by the author has shown. This provided many additions to our knowledge of the lichens of Giresun and Turkey, which are presented below. The study area Giresun is located in the eastern part of the Black Sea region of Turkey (Fig. 1), at the boundary of the Euxianian section of the Euro-Siberian Phytogeographical Region. It is situated between 40°07’ 41°08’ N and 37°50’ 39°12’ E at altitudes ranging from sea level to 3331 m.
