A total of 22 rotifer species were identified. Of these, 18 are new for Abant lake and 4 are new for Turkey. Key Words: Rotifera, Abant Lake, Taxonomy, Fauna Abant Gölü’nün (Bolu) Rotifera Faunası Üzerine Taksonomik Bir Çalışma Özet: Ocak 1997-Kasım 1997 tarihleri arasında yapılan bu çalışmada, Abant gölü rotifera faunası taksonomik olarak incelenmiştir. Bu çalışmada 22 rotifer türü tesbit edilmiş olup, bu türlerin 18’si Abant gölü ve 4’ü Türkiye için yeni kayıttır. Anahtar Sözcükler: Rotifera, Abant Gölü, Taksonomi, Fauna. Introduction Four different species of Rotifera are reported for the Phytoplanktons and zooplanktons are the first and first time in Turkish fauna by the present study. second steps, respectively, in the food chain of lake Study area ecosystems. Zooplanktons in the lake ecosystems are Lake Abant, located 30 km south-west of Bolu, food for invertebrates, fish, and some birds. Turkey (40˚37’O” N/31˚15”O” E), was formed by an Copepods, cladocerans and the Rotifers are the main obstruction of rock debris blocking the valley at its groups of zooplanktons. It has been indicated by some location, at an elevation of 920 m from sea level, with a researchers that certain species of phylum Rotifera have surface area of 45 km2 and maximum depth of 40 m indicator characteristics showing water quality, pollution (Figure 1) within the Notrh Anatolian earthquake zone, and eutrophication (1, 2, 3).

(2019) Structural Analysis Example Steel Construction Greenhouses European Journal of Science and Technology, (16), 61-68. Abstract The greenhouse is an agricultural structure which provides the necessary growth factors for plant production and enables the mechanization of the crops. Greenhouse cultivation is one of the most important income generating branches of agriculture. Nowadays, computer software’s are used for anything as it is being used for planning greenhouses, more robust construction and economical results are obtained this way. Business owners, investing their money in greenhouses, are copying the structural features of existing greenhouses with all wrong calculated parameters and errors. Leaving their valuable cash and future of their investment in the hands of an iron-smith. As a result, the greenhouses which are built without static and strength calculations, more materials are used, or insecure constructions are being applied. When an economic loss occurs depending on structural damage, it will unavoidably lead to economic losses for farmers and implicitly for the country. This study, emphasizes the structural Analysis of a one-span glass covered gable-roofed greenhouse, having an area of 720 m2 located in Antalya province.

Kurucu ortakları olarak her iki şirketin yaklaşık 25 senelik gelişimlerini ya- şayan en yakın tanığıyım; tek kişi ile başlayan bu yolculuk, günümüzde doğrudan istihdam olarak 84, tekel hakkı verdiğimiz satıcılarımız da göz önüne alındığında 100 kişiyi aşan bir istihdam, 20 milyon Euro’ya yakla- şan toplam ciro büyüklüğü ile bana çok büyük mutluluk veren dina- mik bir yapıya ulaşmıştır. 1986 yılında Fransa’da yerleşik dünyanın en eski tohum firması olan VILMORIN’in (kuruluşu 1742) iştiraki ile kurulmuş olan Anadolu To- hum öncelikle geçimini üretimden sağlayan yetiştiricilere tohum arz etmeyi hedeflemişse de, 1998 yılından itibaren ek olarak ülke- mizde faaliyete başlayan Yapı Marketler aracılığı ile zevk bahçecileri- ne (hobby - amatör) yönelik muhtelif ürünleri de pazara sunmaya başlamış- tır. 2007 yılında çoğunluk hisselerini kendilerine devretmem sonucu şirket dünyanın 4’üncü bü- yük tohum grubu olan ve sermayesi bir üretici kooperatifi tarafından kontrol edilen Limagrain Holding’e geçerek, VAT firması oluşmuştur. GENTA ise kurulduğu 1989 yılından itibaren yüzde 100 Türk sermayesi ile üreticilerin gereksi- nim duyduğu ve VAT tarafından karşılanamayan ürünler konusunda faaliyet göstermiş ve gös- termektedir. Sermaye yapıları değişmesine karşın ortak irade ile her iki şirket günümüzde de 2007’den önce olduğu gibi tam bir sinerji ve uyum içinde faaliyetlerini sürdürmekte ve güçlerini paylaşmaktadır- lar.

  • Opening Speech
    II. National Symposium On The Aegean Islands, 2-3 July 2004, Gökçeada - Çanakkale OPENING SPEECH Ali KURUMAHMUT Prime Ministry of Navigation Counsellorship Marine Transportation General Manager The Aegean Sea lies between the Turkish and the Greek main lands, as well as between the Morea peninsular and the southwestern edges of the Anatolian coasts, with the extension of the islands of Çuha, Küçük Çuha, Girit, Kaşot, Kerpe and Rodos that constitute its outer natural boundaries. In terms of the geographical structure, the Aegean, a semi-closed sea, has geological and geo-morphological characteristics peculiar to itself: it has about 1800 islands, islets and rocks of various sorts, as well as a number of geographical formations, scattered al over the Sea. There is little wonder that all these characteristics make the Aegean Sea a special one. The Aegean dispute between Greece and Turkey has been complicated for a number of reasons: for instance, there are many islands in the Aegean that Turkey ceded to Greece through international treaties. And these islands lying in the natural extension of the Turkish mainland surround Anatolia from north to the south. But Athens makes claims of sovereignty over many islands, islets, and rocks though Ankara never ceded any of them to Greece officially. The most obvious and famous case would be the Kardak rocks crisis that erupted between Turkey and Greece at the beginning of 1996. These complications make the Aegean a sea that is of special importance among the seas of the world. It is possible to divide the Aegean Islands into five categories in terms of their geographical locations, geological and geo-morphological characteristics, the historical perspectives of the sovereign powers to which they belonged, the manner in which the sovereignty over them was determined through international treaties, as well as their importance for geo-political and strategic purposes.
