After presenting their credentials of authority have agreed on the following issues: PART ONE Provisions and conditions pertaining to the facilities currently in existence 1) Facilities to be removed Is currently existing on the river and the facilities mentioned below shall be removed as soon as possible. 1) The foundation piles of the ancient Decauville bridge located immediately at the downstream of the Marassia-Maras village. 2) Two dams at the mouth of the river and in the vicinity Gemicikoyu- Gematu towards Turkey and the spurs under construction (section to of the Kuckuncukadasi-border limitation protocol). 3) The mill dam carried away by water and located at the upstream of Edekoyu- Pactii and the spur just a little above the said dam towards Greece. 4) The brick wall at the point where the Cayade delta forks out and in the vicinity of the Turkish checkpoint. 2) Facilities to remain in place: All the other facilities that actually exist on the river such as the protective wall, dikes, spurs, small spurs, etc., shall be retained as they are until preparation of the project (B) sets out the rules in respect to these facilities. It should be well understood that this preservation of the facilities should not imply in any way, the development that will carry the facilities beyond their lines of operation, or 330 Annex modification thereof. It is also well understood that the term retention shall not imply the repair of the devastated spur. The measures taken on these facilities in order to continue to deride their intended use shall not mean improvement or extension of the existing facility. Such maintenance works may only be performed after notifying the other party ten days in advance of the actual date of work. As the Turkish delegation had requested the removal of the closing dike in the direction of the mouth where the rive meets at the Kuleburga (Pythion) down- stream and which obstructs the natural flow of the river at the border marking number 23, marked by the border limitation commission during 1925-1926 on one hand, the Greek delegation had requested the removal of the spurs at the Nazimbey Ciftligi shores, which gave the appearance of encroachment, it was decided to incorporate this matter in the review to be conducted in accordance with section 11 of project (b) of this agreement, and the 20 kilometer portion of this project shall be included in the review. Leaving or removing of the dikes on the shores of Turkey facing Kurtbucagi (south of Poros-Kaldirkos) in project B shall be stipulated after the review stated in part II. PART TWO Hydraulic facilities to be constructed 1) Provided that prior notification of one month is given, determination of the type of facility each party is to build at its liberty. These facilities shall be in three types: a) Frontal protection walls of the river shores, b) Dikes, c) Spurs a) Provided that the base is not broader than 4 meters in the river bed as of the revetment, and does not exceed the water level of 50 centimeters at most the frontal protection walls may be made in any shape or form and out of any material. The thickness of the revetment may not exceed one meter. How- ever, the situation is different for sustaining walls. In this event the thickness of the wall shall be calculated according to the material to be used and the pressure it will be exposed to. If wooden piles are to be used for frontal protection, the width of the facility may not exceed 3 meters from the shores when the level of water is at its lowest. Generally frontal protection may be erected at the places where the river is eroded or where there is the possibility of erosion. They shall in no way be erected at the convex or the tips of the shores. Annex 331 b) The dikes shall be submersible, and proportionately short in length, shall be parallel to the river or inclined to the river. The purpose of the dikes is to protect the inhabitants thereat from floods. These shall be erected at steep shores at points that are threatened with being destroyed by floods. Likewise, permission shall be given for the construction of these dikes around the villages and at desired heights to protect the villages from flood waters It is well understood that Turkey is authorized to construct any type of hydraulic facilities in the area between the Arda Bridge and border marking number 23, granted that, such works shall be restricted in accordance with the interna- tional law and other laws that Turkey is a part of, if the work performed adversely affects the Greek territory. c) Permission shall only be granted to build small spurs at the concave places caused by erosion. The maximum length of these spurs shall be 7.50 m at the place of erosion and this length shall gradually be shortened as the erosion decreases and shall be drawn to it at the place where the erosion begins or ends. These spurs shall be perpendicular to the low flow and their heights shall not exceed the natural floor on the shore and its tip shall be equal to the level of the low water. It shall be sloped above the low flow and shall be 45 degrees at the base. Spurs shall not be built at places where the river separates and where islets are constituted. 2) Hydraulic facilities to be built after the joint review of the gradual stages for the reinforcement of the main bed of the river. Both States shall begin the reinforcement of the main bed coasts in the joint section by taking into consideration the effects caused by the main and the secondary tributaries flowing into the river. If a correction needs to be made in the bed of the river in the study conducted as a result of this process, such correction shall be made with an agreement concluded between the parties in this regard. The said process shall be conducted in sequences at the places where the river separates the common watercourse from the source to the downstream of the river. Each section must be 20km long. The said process shall be conducted by both parties together and shall be completed within the period specified in the study prepared in this regard.

Fishes were caught with pulsed DC electro-fishing equipment from 28 sampling sites throughout Turkish Mediterranean Sea drainages between Göksu River and stream Boğa. The findings of the study demonstrate that Capoeta antalyensis inhabits in Köprüçay and Aksu rivers, and streams Boğa and Gündoğdu, all around Antalya. Capoeta caelestis widely distributed in coastal stream and rivers between Stream Dim (Alanya) in the west and Göksu River (Silifke) in the east. Metric and meristic characters were collected from the fish samples which obtained in the field for Capoeta caelestis and Capoeta antalyensis, and museum material for Capoeta damascina. In this way, morphologic features of the species revealed and Capoeta caelestis compared with Capoeta damascina to remove the hesitations about the validity of the species. The conservation status of Capoeta antalyensis was recommended to uplist from Vulnerable to Endangered. Keywords: Freshwater Fish Species; Anatolia; Pisces; Capoeta antalyensis; C.

Acta Aquatica Turcica, 16(4), 545-557. https://doi.org/10.22392/actaquatr.742217 Abstract The introduction of invasive fish species is considered to be one of the major causes of species endangerment in aquatic ecosystems. More than 30 non-native freshwater fish species which are introduced for the different purpose were reported in Turkey. In addition to the freshwater non-native fish species, the brackish water systems are also affected by the fish species that enter the Mediterranean Sea through the Suez Canal. This study aimed to identify non-native fish species introduced in the Mediterranean brackish water systems of Turkey. Thirteen non-native species from eleven families were identified from 15 localities along the entire Mediterranean Coast of Turkey between 2014-2017. These species are Carassius gibelio (Bloch, 1782), Pseudorasbora parva (Temminck & Schlegel, 1846), Coptodon zillii (Gervais, 1848), Oreochromis niloticus (Linnaeus, 1758), Gambusia holbrooki Girard, 1859, Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum, 1792), Chelon carinatus (Valenciennes 1836), Equulites klunzingeri (Steindachner, 1898), Upeneus moluccensis (Bleeker, 1855), Upeneus pori Ben-Tuvia & Golani, 1989, Siganus rivulatus Forsskål & Niebuhr, 1775, Sillago suezensis Golani, Fricke & Tikochinski, 2013 and Sphyraena chrysotaenia Klunzinger, 1884.

  • The Route of Paul's First Journey to Pisidian Antioch
    New Test. Stud. , pp. –. Printed in the United Kingdom © Cambridge University Press doi:10.1017/S002868850999004X The Route of Paul’s First Journey to Pisidian Antioch MARK WILSON University of South Africa, Pretoria, South Africa email: [email protected] The route of Paul’s first journey between Perga and Pisidian Antioch is still dis- puted. This article examines the three alternatives proposed by scholars. It explores the geographical and historical evidence for each route, looking especially at the extensive road system that existed in Pamphylia, Pisidia, and south Galatia in the first century. Bible atlases routinely depict one route and the reasons for this choice are discussed. Based on a review of the evidence, a fresh hypothesis for the route of the first journey is suggested. Keywords: Paul’s first journey, Perga, Pisidian Antioch, Via Sebaste, Roman roads, Acts .; . Introduction The routes that the apostle Paul took on his journeys across Asia Minor still remain in dispute. A case in point is the route of Paul’s first journey from Perga (Πέργη) to Pisidian Antioch. Scholars have suggested three possible routes with variations for this journey. Two of these routes are routinely depicted in Bible atlases, often with little awareness of the ancient road network or the topo- graphy of the area. On a popular level, the recent opening of the St Paul Trail in southern Turkey has also stirred up interest in the route of Paul’s first journey. Although the St Paul Trail does not follow the ancient routes exactly, Kate Clow’s experience in preparing the new path has provided fresh insights into the region’s history and topography.

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract The supply of fresh water is essential to life, socioeconomic development, and political stability in Middle East. Turkey, Syria and Iraq are the main riparian countries in the Tigris-Euphrates basin. Turkey is the riparian hegemon for a long time due to its structural power and dominant river po- sition. Iraq and Syria are the lower countries in the basin and for this reason they always like to ensure the quantity of water required to satisfy their requirements. The conflict between riparian countries is due to several factors. These are: population growth rate and food security, energy security, economic and technological development, political fragmentation, international water laws, water and management availability and public awareness. There have been a number of at- tempts to find a common ground on water issues between the main three riparian countries since 1920 but no agreement signed yet. Present situation is very bad in Syria and Iraq where thousands of people have no access to water and farmers are leaving their land because of draught. Such sit- uation will definitely raise tension and might lead to war.

The current status of the inland waters ichthyofauna of Turkey is revised, and an updated checklist of the freshwater fishes is presented. A total of 368 fish species live in the inland waters of Turkey. Among these, 3 species are globally extinct, 5 species are extinct in Turkey, 28 species are non-native and 153 species are considered as endemic to Turkey. We recognise pronounced species richness and a high degree of endemism of the Turkish ichthyofauna (41.58%). Orders with the largest numbers of species in the ichthyofauna of Turkey are the Cypriniformes 247 species), Perciformes (43 species), Salmoniformes (21 species), Cyprinodontiformes (15 species), Siluriformes (10 species), Acipenseriformes (8 species) and Clupeiformes (8 species). At the family level, the Cyprinidae has the greatest number of species (188 species; 51.1% of the total species), followed by the Nemacheilidae (39), Salmonidae (21 species), Cobitidae (20 species), Gobiidae (18 species) and Cyprinodontidea (14 species).

The growth and sex in eels from the River Asi, which is in the most arid region of the species distribution, and at a temperature of 21-27 ºC close to the experimentally determined optimum for the eel were examined. A total of 315 European eels were collected between January 1997 –May 1998 and April 2003. Growth was fast, with a high asymptotic length. Temperature is the main factor driving to growth; apparently, growth does not cease during the hot, arid summer. Since these fastest growing stocks will be of major significance for overall dynamics of the whole population, further studies of these southern eels will be required. Key words: Anguilla anguilla, Asi River, European eel, growth, temperature, Turkey Introduction Asi is close to the optimum for eel growth European eel, Anguilla anguilla L., is (Seymour 1984), but no field studies have distributed in Northern and Western Europe, been published to corroborate the and along all the coast of the Mediterranean temperature relation.

Corresponding author: *E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Turkey shows a notable diversity of habitats, with significant variations in altitude, rainfall, temperature, topography and geological history, which is reflected in its richness of biodiversity. Although there are quite a number of publications on the freshwater fish taxonomy, the data set for endemic freshwater fish as assemblages are poor. According to recent findings, a total of 194 endemic freshwater fish species are now recognised within the political boundaries of Turkey. Endemic fish consist of 47.4% of the Turkish freshwater ichthyofauna (409 species). At the family level, the Cyprinidae comprises the greatest number of endemic species (110 species; 56.7% of the endemic species), followed by the Nemacheilidae (31 species; 16.0%), Cyprinodontidae (18 species; 9.3%), Cobitidae (14 species; 7.2%), Salmonidae (12 species; 6.2%), Gobiidae (7 species; 3.6%), Petromyzontidae (1 species; 0.5%) and Clupeidae (1 species; 0.5%). A total of 143 species (73.71%) are found within a single basin. Considering species diversity, the Konya endorheic basin (64.10%) is the richest in endemics, followed by Burdur (52.38%), Büyük Menderes (40.28%), Van Gölü (38.46%) and Antalya (34.00%).

Describe how your project has contributed to the implementation of the CEPF investment strategy set out in the ecosystem profile This project has refined subset those freshwater KBAs previously identified throughout those parts of the CEPF Mediterranean Biodiversity Hotspot that are eligible for CEPF funding (CEPF Grant Number: 61452). The refinements were required to ensure those previously confirmed Freshwater KBAs meet the new global KBA Standard (published in 2016), in particular in terms of boundary delineation. This work allows a much stronger future focus on conservation of freshwater ecosystems and species. Given the importance of KBAs within mechanisms such as the environmental safeguards applied by major donors and the private sector this work represents a major step forwards in the recognition and protection of freshwater ecosystems and species.
