John retired as Chairman after 20 years service during which he has overseen the revival of the ESC and has been supported and assisted by Pat who has over many years entertained many UK and overseas members at their home. After a brief welcome by our Chairman, Robin Bertram, an excellent lunch was enjoyed at the Victory Club. Following this,tributes were paid to John & Pat by our President, Peter Smith, who presented a gift on behalf of the ESC to John. Short speeches were made by our Vice Chairman, Stanley Horesh, and by our Egyptian Representative,Nabil El Hadidi, who presented a gift on behalf of our Egyptian members and the Philatelic Society of Egypt. Marion Horesh then presented a gift to Pat Sears in appreciation of her long standing support, not only to John, but to the ESC. During the ceremonies Peter Smith announced his retirement as President and John, in his turn, gave Peter a gift on behalf of the Circle. John was then appointed President by unanimous support of the members and was presented with a Certificate of Honorary Membership. stanley Horesh was thanked for his excellent organisation of the occasion .. Afterwards members and their wives mingled socially and ~latelically for several hours. Present Mr. & Mrs. J. Sears Mr. P. A. Smith Mr. & Mrs. R. Bertram Mr. T. Awff Mr. P.

Barker Mr.H.H.Makram 190 Presentation to Peter Smith - 20th September 1997 There are only 3 members in the Circle with membership numbers less than 100, needless to say, Peter is one of them, he is number 74 between John Firebrace and John Revell. I became aware of his name when I first joined the Circle in 1972 or 1973, he was the person who was always being quoted when queries arose and his word was considered law. He was the one who could always give the answer to any question re the stamps or postal history of Egypt. I became personally acquainted with Peter when he was in the U.K. some time in the late 1970's on a sabbatical year, and since then of course, we have become good friends. Peter is still regarded by many of us as the fount of all knowledge, he has won many Gold Medals at International Exhibitions, and perhaps would have won more had the Judges been more aware of their subjects. He has recently completed a massive book of Egypt Philately, and I think we are all eagerly awaiting its publication. Since the days of Byam, the publication of an authoritative work on Egypt was a prime goal of the Circle, with the intention that many members should co-operate in its preparation. I am afraid that during my own term as Chairman, the matter was put very much on the back burner and it has needed the urgency and dedication of Peter Smith to take up the challenge on his own and see it through. As to his Presidency during the past 21 years, all I can say is that he has always been there to give advice and encouragement. Any letter I have written concerning Circle or Philatelic matters has always been answered quickly and in great detail. We can only hope that we shall still be able to refer to him when the need arises. Finally, it gives me great pleasure on behalf of the Circle to present you with this small mornento as a token of our appreciation and sincere thanks for all the help and guidance you have given us over the years. John Sears (ESC 188) Presidential Message I feel it is a great honour to be elected President of the Egypt Study Circle. I can only promise to fill the office to the best of my ability, for to follow the likes of Byam, Danson and Smith, is a daunting task. As you know, the election took place at the lunch on the 20th September arranged to mark the 20 years I did as Chairman (supported so loyally by my wife, Pat) and I must take this opportunity of assuring you all how much we enjoyed the occasion. I should like to thank everyone who came and specially those who put so much into the organisation, we shall always treasure the presentations.

The western Mediterranean and the northern Alexandria gas fields are planned to be a part from the national plan and expected to produce 900 million standard cubic feet per day (MMSCFD) in 2019. Raven gas field is one of those fields which GASCO (the Egyptian natural gas company) decided to procure, construct and operate a new gas pipeline to transfer rich gas from Raven gas field in north Alexandria to the western desert gas complex (WDGC) and Amreya Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) plant in Alexandria. The extracted gas will be transported through a new gas pipeline, hereunder named ‘’the project’’, with 70 km length and 30’’ inch diameter to WDGC and 5 km length 18” inch diameter to Amreya LPG. The proposed project will be funded from the World Bank(WB) by the excess of fund from the south-helwan project (due to a change in scope of south helwan project, there is loan saving of US$ 74.6 m which GASCO decided to employ it in the proposed project).

A., A. M. SERAG AND MAHA I. EL-SAYED Plant Protection Research Institute, ARC, Dokki, Giza (Manuscript received 5 January, 2011) Abstract The population dynamics of the green shield scale, Pulvinaria psidii (Mask.) (Hemiptera - Coccidae) was studied for two successive years (2008-2009) on guava trees at Shibin El-Qanater district, Qalubiya Governorate. The obtained results revealed that, P. psidii occurred on guava trees all the year round and has two overlapping generations a year. The 1st generation started from early March to early August/mid-August, peaked in mid-May (early summer) with duration of 5.0 - 5.5 months at field conditions of 20.7 - 21.3°C and 70.7 - 71.9%R.H. The 2nd generation occurred from early May to mid-November, peaked in mid-August (late summer) with duration of 6.0 - 6.5 months at 24.2 - 25.0°C and 69.4 - 70.4%R.H., respectively. The favorable time for abundance of P. psidii occurred in early and late summer during both high temperature and relative humidity. The adult population was relatively higher than nymphal population one in winter months and this may be due to the cold weather and most of the nymphs attained to the adult stage which sheltered on stems bark or in the stem cracks. Daily mean temperature and %R.H. were effective on both nymph and adult populations in 1st and 2nd generations in the two studied years, the population was correlated with the increase of temperature.

    Hydroclimate Changes to Arid regions subjected to Impact of climate change, human activities, and Large-scale climate patterns by Shereif Hassan Mahmoud A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Water Resources Engineering Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering University of Alberta © Shereif Hassan Mahmoud, 2020 Abstract In recent years, many regions worldwide have suffered from natural hazards related to the impact of human activities and climate change, such as floods and droughts, sea level rise, extreme weather events and an accelerated hydrological cycle. In Africa, the driest continent on Earth, climate change has led to more frequent occurrences of droughts of greater severity. Beside climate change, human activities have also incurred negative environmental impact which in turn has likely affected the climate at a wide range of temporal-spatial scales worldwide. For example, in the Middle East, floods of greater magnitude have been occurring more frequently in recent decades, which could be attributed partly to rapid urbanization or the effect of climate change, or both. In the Nile River basin (NRB), recurring droughts and increasing population have led to rising tension between competing users for water. Therefore, to develop more effective mitigation strategies against the potential impact of climate change, there is an urgent need to better understand changes to the hydrologic cycle of arid regions and linkage to regional climate change. The objectives of this dissertation are: 1) To investigate the potential implications of urbanization and climate change to the flood risk of Egypt and Saudi Arabia of arid climate in the Middle East.

  • The Data on Periodical (Weekly) Market at the End of the 19Th Century in Egypt -The Cases of Qaliubiya, Sharqiya and Daqahliya Provinces
    The Data on Periodical (Weekly) Market at the End of the 19th Century in Egypt -The cases of Qaliubiya, Sharqiya and Daqahliya Provinces Hiroshi Kato Some geographers and historians are concerned with periodical market, which they define as the place of economic transactions peculiar to so called "peasant society. In Egypt, which is, as well known, a typical hydraulic society, periodical market, that is weekly market (α1- siiq al-usbu i) in the Islamic world, still has the important economic functions in rural areas at the present, as well as it had in the past. The author is now collecting the data on Egyptian weekly market from the 19th century to the present, based upon source materials on one hand, and field research on the other. The aim of this paper is to present some statistical and ge0- graphical data on Egyptian weekly market at the end of the 19th century to the researchers who are interested in periodical market in agrarian society, before the intensive study, which the author is planning in the future, on the economic functions of Egyptian weekly market and their transformation in the process of the modernization of Egyptian society. The source material from which the data are collected is A. Boinet, Geographie Econ0- mique et Administrative de I'Egypte, Basse-Egypte I, Le Caire, 1902. It is the results of the population census in 1897 and the agrarian census maybe took in 1898 and 1899, being annexed to the population census in the previous year. The data are arranged village by village, and contain the statistics on cultivated area, crops, planted trees, animals, industry, traffic by rail- road, and transportation by the Nile and canals, and the descriptive informations and remarks on school, canal, railroad, market, post office and so on.
