(2019). A preliminary study on using rotifera fauna to determine the trophic level of the Büyükçekmece Reservoir (İstanbul, Turkey). Aquatic Sciences and Engineering, 34(4), 103–111. ABSTRACT In this study, the abundance of rotifera fauna, in the Büyükçekmece Reservoir (İstanbul) and some physicochemical features of the reservoir, were investigated between May 2009 and February 2010. In terms of physicochemical conditions, the trophic state of the reservoir was determined as eutrophic (CTSI= 57.8). A total of 33 rotifera species were identified.Keratella cochlearis repre- sented 40.62% of the total annual rotifera present, and was predominant. It was followed by Poly- arthra vulgaris (10.14%), Synchaeta oblonga (9.06%), Brachionus urceolaris (5.58%), Pompholyx sulcata (5.21%) and Epiphanes macroura (%4.86), respectively. The contribution of the other rotifer species to the annual presence of rotifera was determined as being 24.52%. The dominance of these species was attributed to the eutrophic state of the reservoir, because K. cochlearis, P. vul- garis, B. urceolaris and P. sulcata are known as eutrophication indicator species, due to their sap- robic valences. Also, the trophic state of the reservoir was found to be eutrophic according to the QB/T index (= 3). According to the present data about rotifera species, and the abundance of them, ORCID IDs of the authors: the Büyükçekmece Reservoir was specified as eutrophic. However it is necessary to follow the Z.D. 0000-0003-4782-3082 conditions with periodic monitoring to observe the alterations in the Büyükçekmece Reservoir, in 1Istanbul University, Faculty of this respect the results of the present study would constitute an important baseline for subse- Aquatic Sciences, Department of quent studies.

Vol. 24, No. 5 (2015), 2095-2112 DOI: 10.15244/pjoes/58765 Original Research Determination of Temporal Changes in the Sinuosity and Braiding Characteristics of the Kizilirmak River, Turkey Derya Ozturk*, Faik Ahmet Sesli Department of Geomatics Engineering, Ondokuz Mayis University, 55139 Samsun, Turkey Received: June 2, 2015 Accepted: July 6, 2015 Abstract In this study, the pattern of the approximately 1,300-km-long Kizilirmak River was recreated in a geo- graphic information system (GIS) environment using data obtained from Landsat TM/ETM+/OLI satellite images from 1987, 2000, and 2013. The temporal changes in the sinuosity and braiding characteristics of the river were determined for the periods 1987-2000 and 2000-13. The right and left shorelines of the Kizilirmak River and the shorelines of islands and bars within the river channel were extracted automatically from the satellite images by integrating the normalized difference water index (NDWI) and modified normalized dif- ference water index (MNDWI). The data required for measuring the sinuosity and braiding characteristics were obtained by evaluating the shorelines in the GIS environment. The braiding index (BI), braid-channel ratio (B), and braiding ratio (BR) were used to determine the braiding of the river, and the sinuosity index was used to determine the sinuosity of the river. The Kizilirmak River was divided into 21 analyzed sections based on the locations of dams. The sinuosity decreased in 15 sections in 1987-2000 and 2000-13. The BI, B, and BR values decreased in 11 sections in 1987-2000 and in 9 sections in 2000-13.

Kilic and A. M. Kilic* Mining Engineering Department, Engineering and Architecture Faculty, Cukurova University, Adana, Turkey. Accepted 19 May, 2010 The Salt Lake (Tuz Gölü) is the second largest lake in Turkey and also is one of the greatest salty lakes in the world. Salt Lake has a great salt potential. The salt was produced in large quantities on saltpans in the Salt Lake. In this study, a detailed mineralogical investigation was carried out with salt crust samples and unconsolidated muddy sediments, below the salt crust collected from the Kaldırım Saltpan in the Salt Lake. The salt crust and below the salt crust (1 - 20 cm) evaporate mineralogy were determined by X-ray diffraction method. The analysis results show that the salt crust was in composition of halite, gypsum and kieserite; muddy sediments and below the salt crust which was in the composition of gypsum, magnesite, thenardite, polyhalite, aragonite and montmorillonite. The mineralogical variations of the participated salts indicated that, the chemical compositions of brines vary significantly between the Na-K-Mg-Ca-Cl type and the Na-K-Mg-Cl-SO4 type. Key words: Salt Lake, solar evaporation, evaporates, salt crust, XRD, SEM. INTRODUCTION Sodium chloride, NaCl (halite), the most common only poorly modeled by studying brine evolution in man- evaporite salt, is used in several forms by virtually every made sea water ponds.

The arable lands and water resources of the world are rapidly becoming polluted and disappearing. Scientists think that mankind will in the near future be faced with a serious shortage of water and food. In the light of these developments, the biological diversity of a country is becoming a major strength, especially in terms of genetic resources. As a country that has vital resources for people’s food security. Turkey is one of the fortunate countries of the world from the viewpoint of biological diversity. This considerable wealth both offers our country economic opportunities and imposes upon it the responsibility to establish a conservation- utilization balance.

Prof. Charles Gates August 2019 There are upwards of sixty different cult epithets for the Phrygian goddess Meter in Central Anatolia alone during the Roman Imperial period. Considering that only three or four of her epithets are known from the Hellenistic period, the contrast is striking. Moreover, many of the epithets tend to be epichoric, so that in essence, her names can change from one valley to the next. In some cases, merely hearing an epithet is enough to bring a certain part of central Anatolia to mind. From this, a natural question arises. Why was there a need for so many local Meter cults in Asia Minor? The goddess Meter, called Magna Mater by the Romans, had been adopted into the Roman Pantheon in 204 BC; but could she, although indigenous to Phrygia, no longer meet the religious needs of her homeland’s people? This thesis approaches these questions by two primary means.

Abstract: Prokaryotic communities and physico-chemical characteristics of 30 brine samples from the thalassohaline Tuz Lake (Salt Lake), Deep Zone, Kayacik, Kaldirim, and Yavsan salterns (Turkey) were analyzed using 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing and standard methods, respectively. Archaea (98.41% of reads) was found to dominate in these habitats in contrast to the domain Bacteria (1.38% of reads). Representatives of the phylum Euryarchaeota were detected as the most predominant, while 59.48% Citation: Akpolat, C.; Fernández, and 1.32% of reads, respectively, were assigned to 18 archaeal genera, 19 bacterial genera, 10 archaeal A.B.; Caglayan, P.; Calli, B.; Birbir, M.; genera, and one bacterial genus that were determined to be present, with more than 1% sequences in Ventosa, A.
