Previous quantitative studies have focused on the peatlands of Northern and Central Europe, North America, and New Zealand and have considered a relatively restricted variety of peatland types, mostly ombrotrophic or Sphagnum-dominated while more minerotrophic fens have been less studied. Here we present the first quantitative ecological study of testate amoebae from four small mesotrophic fens (pH 5.5—8.1) in the Elatia Forest, northern Macedonia province, Greece. Relationships with the environmental data were investigated using redundancy analysis and mantel tests. Transfer function models were derived using a variety of techniques. Results demonstrate that as for Sphagnum- dominated mires hydrology is the most important control on amoebae community composition. Transfer function models should enable water tables to be predicted within 2.5 cm, when data selection is used this is reduced to less than 2 cm. pH is also an important environmental control on testate amoebae communities, a transfer function model enables pH prediction within 0.4 pH units. The hydrological transfer function is the best performing such model yet produced in terms of prediction error. This study provides new data on the ecology of testate amoebae in fens, and the transfer function models should allow quantitative palaeohydrological reconstruction. Key words: protists; transfer functions; palaeoclimate; peatlands; mire surface wetness. 1 Corresponding author; e-mail [email protected] (R.J. Payne).

Ombrotrophic peatlands are not known environments and are particularly numerous in in Greece but more oligotrophic mires are peatlands where they may constitute as much as present in the uplands of northern Macedonia 30% of the microbial biomass (Gilbert et al. 1998; and Epirus. Although testate amoebae have Mitchell et al. 2003). Testate amoebae species been studied in Greek soils (e.g. Bonnet 1967, have closely defined preferences for a variety of 1986) we are not aware of any previous studies environmental variables including hydrology, pH from Greek peatlands.

Transfer function models for Sites hydrology have now been developed from regions The mires investigated lie in an area of mature around the world with the greatest concentration coniferous forest in the heart of the Elatia Forest in in North America and northern and central Europe the Central Rhodope Mountains, approximately (Bobrov et al. 1999; Booth 2001, 2002; Charman 40 km north of Drama (41 1290N, 24 1190E; and Warner 1992, 1997; Lamentowicz and 1500 m asl; Fig. 1).

The southemmost occurrences in Greece of selected vascular plant species associated with woodlands of beech, fir and spruce in C. and N. Europe are discussed. Preliminary maps of the Greek distribution are given for Aegopodium podagraria, Allium ursinum, Corallorhiza trifida, Galium odoratum, Lamium galeobdolon, Luzula luzuloides, L. sylvatica, Milium effusum, Orthilia secunda, Paris quadrifolia, Prenanthes purpurea, and Salvia glutinosa. Introduction The land surfaee of eontinental Greeee is far from being isolated from adjaeent parts of S.E. Europe by effeetive, W.-E. orientated geomorphologieal barriers. Mountains, lowlands and N.-S. running stream valleys allow free exehange and migration of organ­ isms from and to non-mediterranean areas in the north. The dinarie-pindie high moun­ tain system, in partieular, forrns an uninterrupted eonneetion between the southern part of the Balkan peninsula and C. Europe, whieh was an important faetor during the period of postglaeial restoration of European forest vegetation (Hammen 1965, Messerli 1967, Bottema 1974, Horvat & al. 1974, Athanasiadis 1975, Pott 1992). The mediterranean­ type climate, however, aetually limits regional southward distribution in N. and C. Greeee for many plants whieh are widespread in c., W. and N. Europe but not adapted to pronouneed summer aridity. Montane Fagus-Abies-Picea woodlands and various types of wetland habitats are those favourable niehes in Greeee where summer draught is suffieiently eompensated by miero- and mesoclimatie effeets and where most of the "northern" elements of the Greek flora are therefore eoneentrated.

We adopted the spatial neighborhood technique in this study to determine the effect that competition has on tree basal area in three forests in Greece: a) mixed Norway spruce (Picea abies) forest, b) pure European beech (Fagus sylvatica) forest, and c) a mixed Turkish pine (Pinus brutia) forest.

In date, it spans the period from 2 BC to the third century AD. Spatially, the documents derive from 12 provinces ( Achaia, Africa, Asia, Baetica, Cilicia, Creta et Cyrene, Dalmatia, Iudaea, Lusitania, Macedonia, Moesia and Syria ), plus Italy. The presentation of each includes a text, English translation, bibliography and commentary. Analytical chapters expand upon recent published work by G. Burton and B. Campbell. Terminological analysis permits classification of epigraphic and literary evidence into five categories: boundary disputes, restoration of public and sacred lands, other land disputes, the assignment of boundaries and other authoritative demarcations involving Roman officials. The analysis also provides a more focused definition of several Latin and Greek words that indicate the delivery of a verdict by a Roman official ( decretum, sententia, iudicium, ἀποφάσις, κρίσις, ἐπικρίμα ).

  • The Other Greeks: Metaphors and Ironies of Hellenism in Livy’S Fourth Decade
    THE OTHER GREEKS: METAPHORS AND IRONIES OF HELLENISM IN LIVY’S FOURTH DECADE DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Douglas S. Freeble * * * * The Ohio State University 2004 Dissertation Committee: Professor Erik Gunderson, Adviser Approved by Professor Kirk Freudenburg, Co-Adviser ___________________________ Professor Sarah Iles Johnston Adviser Greek and Latin Graduate Program Copyright by Douglas Freeble 2004 ABSTRACT Already in the Praefatio of Livy’s work the metaphor of the importation of foreign influence is apparent. Livy chooses the annalistic narrative style as the most Roman form possible and a self -construction as an author who valorizes traditional Roman values. These authorial decisions on the modality of the narrative are intimately linked to tropology and the manufacturing of the metaphors and ironies that frame Livy’s text in books 31-45. Roman control in Thessaly is asserted by manufacturing communities in its image. These collapse miserably when the guiding Roman metaphors are questioned. The failure of Roman institutions is depicted as evidence of the restless nature of the Thessalians. A representative image of Thessaly is given in the character of Theoxena, a Thessalian exile who kills herself at a festival of Aeneas. Her story allows Romans to form an emotional bond with the Thessalians, although it maintains their essential alterity. The Galatian campaign of Manlius Vulso shows the dangers of Rome’s encounter with Hellenism. The Galatians are presented as Gallic-Greek hybrids who are no longer the great Gallic warriors of the past.

In total twelve trees were felled, six from each species, in three different logging sessions in the Elatia region, Drama. The trees were subsequently cut into logs which constituted the 12 experimental surfaces of the study. The surfaces were placed either on a skidroad on special platforms or inside the logging area. Data from two cross-sections performed in each log were taken at the end of every month, a process that lasted four, seven and four consecutive months respectively for the experimental surfaces resulting from each logging session. At the end of the research periods each log was cut mid- length and data were collected from this cross-section as well. KEYWORDS: Blue-stain, harvest-time, Picea abies, Pinus sylvestris. INTRODUCTION Associations between fungi and bark beetles of coniferous trees are numerous, and mainly involve the beetle genera Ips and Dendroctonus and the fungal genera Ceratocystis and Ophiostoma (Webber and Gibbs 1989). Many of these fungal species are collectively known as blue stain fungi (Whitney 1982). Some of these fungi are pathogenic and associated with aggressive bark beetles, thus causing severe damage to living trees (Bramble and Holst 1940; Mathre 1964; Molnar 1965; Horntvedt et al.
