  • The Cultural Sustainability: Merzifon Anatolia College, Turkey Gizem Özerol1 , Aysu Akalın Abstract
    ARTICLE ISSN 2651 - 5210 MODULAR 2019;2(2):21-45 The Cultural Sustainability: Merzifon Anatolia College, Turkey Gizem Özerol1, Aysu Akalın2 Received: 19 November 2019 - Accepted: 17 December 2019 Abstract The article proposes an analysis of the role of American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions (ABCFM) during the late Ottoman and the early nationalist (Republican) Turkey and focusses especially on the ABCFM organization and the role of Protestant missionaries, which they succeeded in establishing autonomous schools, hospitals, clinics, orphanages, lodgings and ateliers not only in the capitals, but also in provinces. The American Board began evangelism among Armenians, and the education and the social services became part of the Protestant movement in the Near East. Following efforts to Christianize the nations through evangelism, in the mid of 19th century, Merzifon (Marsovan) province was chosen due to its location in the middle of Anatolia and Merzifon Anatolia College was designed as an important ‘station’ in order to support the American missionary movements. Then, between the years 1886 and 1938, ABCFM built strong connections with Anatolia College in Merzifon to gain a very important strategic position. In the context of the First World War, the function of the Anatolia College buildings has changed for different aims; the military used these buildings as the Artillery Regiment. After the war the ABCFM’s network broke down but its strong contribution to present education in Turkey is inevitable. The site as a heritage is still an active part of the city’s cultural life with some existing buildings of ABCFM supporting culture and education.

    Journal of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences June 2015, Vol. 4, No. 1, pp. 100-107 ISSN: 2334-2404 (Print), 2334-2412 (Online) Copyright © The Author(s). All Rights Reserved. Published by American Research Institute for Policy Development DOI: 10.15640/jaes.v4n1a13 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.15640/jaes.v4n1a13 Measuring the Productive Efficiency and Identifying the Inefficiency Determinants of Dairy Farms in Amasya Province, Turkey Esin Hazneci1 & Vedat Ceyhan2 Abstract The aim of the study was to investigate the productive efficiency and to identify the inefficiency determinants of dairy farms in Merzifon, a district of Amasya province located in the Central Black Sea Region of Turkey. Productive efficiency scores were calculated by using Stochastic Frontier Analysis. Tobit model was used to determine the inefficiency determinants. Farm-level research data were obtained from 67 randomly selected dairy farms. Study results revealed that the average amount of milk produced on dairy farms in Merzifon district could be increased in the ratio of 22% with the current technology. The technical efficiency of the sample dairy farms ranged from 0.56 to 0.99 (mean 0.78). Variables such as education level of farm operators, feeding frequency, the ratio of Holstein stock and land allocated to fodder crops affected technical inefficiency negatively. For this purpose, this study proposes new strategies such as providing better agricultural extension services and farmer training programs to increase the educational level of farmers, and providing farmers with the opportunity of accessing loan to enhance their technical efficiency. Keywords: Dairy farming; stochastic production frontier; technical efficiency; determinants of inefficiency 1.

  • Determination of Inorganic Elements in Poppy Straw by Scanning Electron Microscopy with Energy Dispersive Spectrometry As a Means of Ascertaining Origin
    Determination of inorganic elements in poppy straw by scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectrometry as a means of ascertaining origin E. ÇOPUR Department of Chemistry, Gendarmarie General Command Criminal Laboratory, Ankara, Turkey 4 N. G. GÖGER, and T. ORBEY Department of Analytical Chemistry, Faculty of Pharmacy, Gazi University, Ankara, Turkey B. SENER¸ Department of Pharmacognosy, Faculty of Pharmacy, Gazi University, Ankara, Turkey ABSTRACT Cultivation of poppy as a source of opium alkaloids for legitimate medical purposes has a long tradition in Turkey. The main products are poppy straw and concentrate of poppy straw, obtained from dried poppy capsules. The aims of the study reported in the present article were to establish inorganic element profiles for the poppy-growing provinces of Turkey by means of X-ray analysis by scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectrometry (SEM/EDS) and to explore the potential of the technique for determination of origin. Ten elements (sodium, magnesium, silicon, phosphorus, sulphur, chlorine, potassium, calcium, copper and zinc) were analysed in poppy straw samples from 67 towns in nine provinces. As regards the determination of origin, the most significant finding was the presence of copper and zinc in the poppy straw samples from 8 of the 15 towns in Afyon Province. Since those elements are not normally found in soil, it is assumed that their presence is the result of environmental (industrial) contamination. Differences in the samples from the other eight provinces were less signifi- cant, possibly a result of their geographical proximity. Nevertheless, differences in the samples were apparent. Because the findings are relative rather than absolute in terms of presence or absence of individual inorganic elements, further research is required to convert them into operationally usable results.

DOI: http://dx.doi.org/ 10.22034/srls.2021.527238.1015 Abstract Each species is unique in the area it lives in and while they are distributed in these areas, they are affected by many biotic and abiotic variables. These factors both create all the life requirements of the species in the habitats they live in and reveal the ecological barrier of the species between each other. In this presented study, Testudo graeca species was recorded for the first time in the Eastern Black Sea region and this record constitutes the most northeast locality in the range of the species. Also, it is given information about determination of vital requirement of species and what are the bioclimatic factors it uses for its distributing in Turkey. This situation shows that T.

    VECTOR/PATHOGEN/HOST INTERACTION,TRANSMISSION Species Diversity of Ixodid Ticks Feeding on Humans in Amasya, Turkey: Seasonal Abundance and Presence of Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus 1 1,2 1 1 3 A. BURSALI, S. TEKIN, A. KESKIN, M. EKICI, AND E. DUNDAR Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/jme/article-abstract/48/1/85/905733 by Balikesir University user on 22 August 2019 J. Med. Entomol. 48(1): 85Ð93 (2011); DOI: 10.1603/ME10034 ABSTRACT Ticks (Acari: Ixodidae) are important pests transmitting tick-borne diseases such as Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) to humans. Between 2002 and 2009, numerous CCHF cases were reported in Turkey, including Amasya province. In the current study, species diversity, seasonal abundance of ticks, and presence of CCHF virus (CCHFV) in ticks infesting humans in several districts of Amasya province were determined. In the survey, a total of 2,528 ixodid ticks were collected from humans with tick bite from April to November 2008 and identiÞed to species. Hyalomma marginatum (18.6%), Rhipicephalus bursa (10.3%), Rhipicephalus sanguineus (5.7%), Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) annulatus (2.2%), Dermacentor marginatus (2.5%), Haemaphysalis parva (3.6%), and Ixodes ricinus (1.6%) were the most prevalent species among 26 ixodid tick species infesting humans in Amasya province. Hyalomma franchinii Tonelli & Rondelli, 1932, was a new record for the tick fauna of Turkey. The most abundant species were the members of Hyalomma and Rhipicephalus through summer and declined in fall, whereas relative abundances of Ixodes and Dermacentor ticks were always low on humans in the province. Of 25 Hyalomma tick pools tested, seven pools were CCHFV positive by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction.

Seventeen loci were monomorphic and ®xed for the same allele among populations, whereas 19 loci were found to be polymorphic or discriminant among samples. The following species were determined in the material: A. ¯avicollis, A. uralensis, A. hermonensis, and a taxon provisionally called Apodemus cf. hyrcanicus. The study ma- terial was compared with previously analyzed samples from western Anatolia, increasing the total material to 245 specimens from 31 localities. In general, the pattern of variation and level of genetic differentiation within and among species were comparable between western and eastern samples. Intraspeci®c genetic distances were low, ranging from 0 to 0.051, but interspeci®c distances were an order of magnitude higher. Similarly, neighbor- joining trees showed negligible differentiation between populations of individual species and no sign of intraspeci®c structuring.

Reptile species Received: 14/01/2018 were identified from collections made during field studies or recorded in literature, with some Accepted: 18/06/2018 new locality records obtained. Field studies were undertaken over two consecutive years (2016 and 2017). Two lacertid species, one skink species, two colubrid species and one viper species were officially recorded for the first time or their information was updated. In addition to Keywords species locality records, chorotypical and habitat selection were also assessed and the Viper International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List of Threatened Species criteria Reptilia included. Data on the distribution and locality information for each taxon is also provided. Our Fauna findings demonstrate that Amasya might be an ecotone zone between the Mediterranean, Chorotype Caucasian, and European ecosystems. Although there are some concerns for the sustainable Eunis dynamics of reptilian fauna, relatively rich and different European nature information system habitat types provide basic survival conditions for reptilian fauna in the province. 1. INTRODUCTION Turkey is the only country that almost entirely includes three of the world’s 34 biodiversity hotspots: the Caucasus, Irano-Anatolian, and Mediterranean [1].

The starting point for the conducted research was the adoption of indicators used to assess the sustainable development of tourism in the cities of Amasya (Turkey) and Zakopane (Poland). Ultimately, the authors used slightly modified indicators developed by the Voluntary Initiative for Sustainability in Tourism (VISIT). The studies demonstrated that in Amasya the development of tourism is quite stable and revealed quite a lot of deficiencies in Zakopane. Sustainable development was assessed as poor in terms of environmental obligations, in particular waste water management solutions and municipal waste management as well as in terms of water consumption. The research revealed that some of the indicators were not recorded in central statistical offices, which hindered the assessment considerably. This refers mainly to indicators related to social and cultural considerations. In general, the results are rather surprising, as the analysis revealed significant differences in the development of technological infrastructure and land use intensity.

Coutsis 4 Glykonos Street, GR- 10675 Athens, Greece; e-mail: [email protected] Abstract. The separation of Turanana taygetica (Rebel, 1902) stat. n. from Turanana endymion (Freyer, 1850) is effected on the basis of small, but constant differences in their male genitalia, the absence of genitalia intermediates, as well as on the basis of syntopism and synchronism of these two species-group taxa in south-central Asiatic Turkey. Turanana taygetica endymionoides ssp. n. is described on the basis of constant and rather pronounced external differences. A male neotype is designated for nominotypical endymion, as well as for nominotypical T. taygetica. A male lectotype is designated for T. endymion ahasveros (Bytinski-Salz & Brandt, 1937). Key words. Lycaenidae, Turanana endymion, taxonomy, typification, new subspecies, Greece, Turkey, Iran. Introduction A comparison between the valvae of Turanana endymion endymion (Freyer, 1850) (= T. panagaea panagaea (Herrich-Schäffer, 1851)) from central and eastern Asiatic Turkey (Figs. 1, 2, 5, 7-26, 27-33, 39-50), as well as from Lebanon (Fig. 34), and between the valvae of what is generally accepted as being Turanana endymion ahasveros (Bytinski-Salz & Brandt, 1937) from Iran (Fig.
