    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Accumulation of Heavy Metals in Some Plants Grown on Serpentine Soils  of Mersin, Turkey]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[The purpose of this study was to determine hyperaccumulator species growing in  Findikpinari-Mersin. The soils derived from ultrafamic rocks lead to unusual and sparse  associations of flora that are tolerant to extreme environmental conditions such as high heavy  metal contents. As the geological structure, Mersin-Findikpinari has rocks containing  ultramafic and serpentine, but this site is one of the less studied areas. The 26 specimens of  total 755 plants identified systematically from Mersin-Findikpınari in between in 1997-2002  were randomly selected and studied whether hyperaccumulator or not. Twenty six plants  collected (members of 26 genera and 8 families) from different sampling locations were  analyzed for their total As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb, Se and Zn concentrations using an  ICP-MS. A certified reference material (SRM 1573A, SRM 1547) was also analyzed to check  the accuracy of the used extraction technique. In the present study, Mn content (548 mg kg-1)  of Anthemis aciphylla Boiss. (Asteraceae) was higher than the critical Mn value (300-500 mg  kg-1) and Ni content (115 mg kg-1) Crocus graveolens Boiss&amp;Reute (Iridiceae) was higher  than the critical Ni value (10-100 mg kg-1) but unfortunately none of the plants studied was  hyperaccumulator.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Economic Importance and Using Purposes of Gypsophila L. and  Ankyropetalum Fenzl (Caryophyllaceae) of Türkiye]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Gypsophila L. is the third biggest genus of Caryophyllaceae family in  Türkiye. 55 species of the genus have been growing naturally in our country. 33  of them are endemic and total number of the taxa is 55. Ankyropetalum Fenzl is a  small genus with 3 species and 1 of them is endemic. It is agreeable that gene center  of the both genera is Türkiye. In terms of growing habitats there are large areas in  Türkiye. According to importance order East, Central and Southeast Anatolia regions  have the biggest number of taxa growing there. Ankyropetalum genus distributed only  in the Southeast Anatolia and Mediterranean regions and in their intersection areas of  Türkiye.  Both of the genera have known as “çöven, çöğen”, halvah root and largened root  parts or rhizomes are economically very important. Extracts produced from under  parts of the plants known as fire extinguisher, gold polishing, silk and cloth cleaner  and softener and crispness giving to halvah. These extracts have often used for  making liqueur, preparing herbal cheese and making ice cream. Because of giving  flavour, crispness and nice odor they generally preferred in food industry.  With different ratios all of the taxa are boron (B) hyperacumulators. For this reason  they can be used for destroyed agricultural areas. They can be planted to elevated  slopes and hills to control erosion and survive biological diversity. General character  of the family is their importance for horticulture. G. paniculata is very important for  horticulture industry. In the presentation, some information about economic  importance of the plants in the light of our observations and literatures were given.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Recent Developments On The Aplication Of Artemia  In The Ornamental Fish Culture]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Production of animals for the aquarium hobbyist trade is a rapidly growing sector  of the aquacultural industry, and it will continue to become more important as restrictions are  placed on collecting animals for the wild. Improved techniques for marine food-fish  larviculture since the early 1980’s have greatly enhanced the growth and survival of  freshwater ornamental fish larvae largely through improved technology regarding live food  culture and larval rearing practices. Research developments in larviculture and early rearing  technology have allowed 90% of currently marketed freshwater ornamental fish to be cultured.  However, for marine ornamentals, the reverse is true as only a handful of species is produced  via aquaculture technology. A major task in devising a protocol for the artificial propagation  of a fish species is the development of a feeding regimen for the larvae. Live feeds are a  convenient and often essential food source for the larvae of some cultured species, especially  those without a fully developed digestive system. In such cases, live food organisms provide  digestive enzymes that breakdown the food ingested by larvae and can be described as  naturally encapsulated bags of nutrients. Two major concerns among aquaculturists are  providing organisms appropriate to the size of the larvae at the first feeding stage and then  supplying the large numbers of feed organisms necessary to maintain the larvae. Since no  artificial feed formulation is yet available to completely substitute for Artemia, feeding live  prey to young fish larvae still remains essential in commercial hatchery operations. This paper  reports the recent developments in the applications of Artemia nauplii, decapsulated Artemia  cysts and on-grown Artemia in the ornamental fish culture.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Ectoparasitic Diseases in Freshwater Ornamental Fish and Their  Treatments]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Fish parasites and their effects have become increasingly visible during the latest  decades inconnection with the development of fresh water ornamental Fish industries  troughout the world. Diseases problem including hazards caused by parasitic organisms are  the main threat to further increase of the industry. Ectoparasites are the most common and  widely distributed of freshwater ornamental Fish. Such as, protozoan ectoparasites of  aquarium fish (Ichthyophthirius multifiliis, Ichthyobodo necatrix, Chilodonella cyprini,  Oodinium limneticum, Trichodinids); external worms of fish (Dactylogyrus extensus,  Gyrodactylus bullutarudis); external crustaceans (parasitic copepods, Argulus japonicus,  Argulus foliaceus, Lernaea cyprinacea).The fish louse Argulus spp. is now the main problem  in cage-cultured freshwater ornamental Fish in the fresh water environment in Europa  countries. Gyrodactylus bullatarudis had caused the mortality in guppy ornamental fish.  White Spot Disease (Ichthyophthiriosis) occurs in ornamental fish fry interprise caused the  considerable economic loss. Ornamental fish were affected heavily by ectoparasites due to the  very fine structure of the skin. Ectoparasites causing in ornamental fish only kills the fish but  also reduces the market value of fish. The present work aim to the parasitic diseases of  freshwater ornamental fish, how they are transmitted, which effects they have on ornamental  fish, how they could be diagnosed, and how they could be controlled and treated.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Transportation Practices and Strategies for Sustainable Development]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[The transportation as a system is an important component of social and economy  sustainable development. Sustainable development of transportation requires consideration,  not only its own economic results, but also positive and negative effects of transportation. On  one hand, the transportation has promoted the economic development and the progress of the  society while on the other hand it has also brought a lot of negative effects. The existing  problems in the respects of resources consuming (the land, energy), air pollution, noise, traffic  jam, traffic accident, etc. are the key to realize the sustainable development of the  transportation. In order to effectively reduce the adverse impact of existing transportation  systems new development patterns must be adopted. Overall, the concept of transportation  sustainability should be defined through three major factors: social equity, economic  efficiency and environmental responsibility. Strategies for transportation sustainability  include demand management, operation management, improvements of vehicle technology,  pricing policy and integrated land use and transportation planning. This paper deals with  importance of transportation for sustainable development and presents some sustainable  transportation practices and strategies in the United States and Europe.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[A sintering procedure in constant heraus muffle furnace was carried out at an  interval of 1600-1900 oC for 50 min dwelling time and 5 oC min-1 cooling rate to improve the  grain growth of magnesia. The effects of temperature on the grain growth and microstructural  examination of samples were investigated by using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM).  The average grain size was also determined separately by an intercept measurement method.  According to the findings, crystal size and bulk density were enhanced significantly as a  linear relationship with the increasing temperature. For the samples sintered at 1900 oC, a  maximum average grain growth (~100μm) has been obtained. In this paper, the effects of  temperature on the crystal size and bulk density of the treated magnesia and its marketability  were evaluated.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Superparamagnetic nanoparticles of nickel ferrite (NiFe2O4) were  produced by PEG assisted hydrothermal method. XRD, FT-IR, TEM and VSM were  used for the structural, morphological, and magnetic investigation of the product,  respectively. Average particle size of the nanoparticles was estimated by the  Scherrer equation using the full-width at half maximum (FWHM) of the most  intense XRD peak and found as 14 nm. While the nanoparticles indicate a  superparamagnetic behavior above the blocking temperature of 72 K, they have  ferromagnetic behavior at temperatures lower than the blocking temperature. These  nanoparticles were dispersed into drinking water contaminated with arsenic (As),  and once they bind to arsenic, they have been removed from the water solution using  a strong magnet. The results were measured by Atomic Mass Spectrometry and  found that these nanoparticles had removed 90 % of the arsenic. The measurements  were repeated several times with the same sample and get almost the same results.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[A major period of transformation has begun all over the world since 1980s. The  important developments occurring in the political field with neoliberal policies have also  affected economic field equally. Economic stability and transformation cannot be considered  separately from political stability and transformation. In this context, disintegration of the  Soviet Union and Yugoslavia has led to important developments not only political but also  economic fields. Today, there are countries of Bosnia - Herzegovina, Slovenia, Serbia,  Croatia, Macedonia, Kosovo and Montenegro in the territory of the former Yugoslav  federation. With dissolution of the federation, political and economic transformation process  started in these countries. This study aims to make a comparative analysis in the context of  macroeconomic indicators on Bosnia – Herzegovina‘s economy with other FYRs‘ economies  that emerged as a result of political transformation.]]></dcterms:abstract>
