The electrocoagulation method was selected for the removal of Cd+2. The effects of the parameters such as current density, pH, and supporting electrolyte concentration on this method were studied. The Cd+2 concentration, stirring speed, and temperature were 250 mg/L, 150 rpm, and 293 K in the determination of the optimum pH. The results obtained showed that a pH of 6 provided the highest Cd+2 removals. A pH of 6 was taken to be a constant optimum value while studying the effects of current density and supporting electrolyte concentration on removal. Current density values were chosen as 0.25, 0.50, 1.00, and 1.50 mA/cm 2 . Increasing current density increased Cd +2 removals significantly. Removal of 58%, 85%, 95%, and 99% were found for current densities of 0.25, 0.50, 1.00, and 1.50 mA/cm2 with an initial concentration of 250 mg/L with a reaction time of 30 minute, respectively. An increase in current density caused an extreme increase in energy consumption. Energy consumption was 0.363 kW-h/m3 for a current density of 0.25 mA/cm2 with a reaction time of 30 minutes while it was 1.575, 3.85, and 7.51 kWh/m3 for a current density of 0.50, 1.00 and 1.50 mA/cm2 at a pH of 6, respectively. It was found that the effect of supporting electrolyte concentration on removal efficiency was negative. As supporting electrolyte concentration increased, removal efficiency decreased and the energy consumption rate increased. It was determined, as a the result of the experiments, that Cd +2 ions can be removed at the rate of 99% with a pH of 6, a 250 mg/L Cd+2 concentration, a 150 rpm stirring speed, a temperature of 293 K and a current density of 1.50 mA/cm2 in an aqueous solution.

In this study was conducted to investigate mineralization potentials of different land uses in the area of Genya Mountain-Artvin in 2011. For these purposes, soil samples were taken from surface 0-15 cm depth in young spruce stands, old spruce stands and spruce stand with Rhododendron understory, and adjacent grassland sites with similar parent material, slope and aspect. Samples were subjected to standard incubation technique in laboratory conditions (60% MSK and 25°C). Mineralization rate differed significantly among sites. Nitrification rates were significantly higher in grassland sites compared to other sites (174.61 N ha 21 day-1). There was a strong positive correlation between nitrate production rate and soil organic matter content (r2=0.70) and total N contents of soils (r2=0.80). There was also a negative correlation between nitrification rate and C/N content (r2=-0.48). Although soil organic matter contents of soils were relatively high, N mineralization rate wasn’t as high as expected. It was argued that the reason behind these lower rates was relatively high acidity in soils of the sites.
本文对2011年根亚山-阿尔文地区不同土地利用方式的矿化潜力进行了研究。为此，土壤样品取自幼龄云杉林、老云杉林、杜鹃花林下层云杉林以及具有相似母质、坡度和坡向的邻近草地，深度为0 ~ 15 cm。样品在实验室条件下(60% MSK和25°C)进行标准孵育技术。矿化率在不同地点差异显著。草地样地硝化速率显著高于其他样地(174.61 N ha 21 d -1)。硝态氮产量与土壤有机质含量(r2=0.70)和全氮含量(r2=0.80)呈极显著正相关。硝化速率与C/N含量呈负相关(r2=-0.48)。土壤有机质含量较高，但氮矿化率未达到预期值。有人认为，这些低速率背后的原因是这些地点的土壤酸度相对较高。

There is little or no specific and concise information on the ecological conditions which constrain distribution, abundance, and density of Dasylirion cedrosanum Trelease keeping in mind that such knowledge is indispensable to promote and support plantations and reforestation programs in order to confront the consequences of a possible depletion of natural populations. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate D. cedrosanum density as related to ecological factors such as latitude, longitude, altitude, slope, soil texture fractions, pH, electric conductivity, available nitrogen and phosphorus contents, and organic matter content on a xerophytic scrub in the northeast of the Mexico’s state of Zacatecas. Data from 41 square–shaped sampling units of 1.000 m 2 each from an area of 2.422.2 ha where altitude varies from 2.000 to 2.356 masl, and slope inclination changes from moderate (5.5%) to steep (44.2%) was analyzed through linear relationships, quadratic functions, and principal components analysis. Results provide compelling evidence about D. cedrosanum density depends on elevation, inclination, and soil silt and sand contents. A triangularshaped dispersion of observations when density is plotted against each soil, silt or sand, contents was appreciated. A significant humped trend suggest that sites having slopes around 20%, although it could be in the 10 to 30% slope range, provides a better habitat for this species. D. cedrosanum plants are scarcer, that is, present at low and minimum densities (< 259 plants ha-1) in the sampled units characterized by high

Analysis of Rain Water in Trabzon Abstract This study has been carried out to investigate the chemical properties of the rains in winter in Trabzon city, Black Sea Region, Turkey. The rain water samples were collected at three stations which are in the, the Governership, Bahcecik and KTU campus standing. SO4 2-, NO3 -, NO2 -, Ca2+, Mg2+ pH, PM10 and SO2 concentrations of samples were determined. The samples are taken from May 2008 to April 2009 at these three stations. The average pH value was 6.81. The average pollutant concentrations of the rainwater samples were determined as follows : 2.99 mg SO4 2-/L, 0.30 mg NO3 -/L, 0.05 mg NO2 -/L, 0.66 mg Ca2+/L, 0.60 mg Mg2+/L, 40.50 μg PM10 /m3, 16.10 μg SO 2 /m3. The results of this study, compared with other studies conducted in Turkey. In general, the results of this study suggested that rainwater chemistry is strongly influenced by local anthropogenic sources rather than natural and marine sources. The pollutants in rainwater samples were mainly derived from transport, local industry and traffic sources. Rain water during this period have been found to be alkaline.

In this study, the aim is to investigate the preventive effects of T. spicata and Q. ithaburensis extracts on lipid peroxidation (LPO) formation and unsaturated fatty acids in a Fenton reagent environment. The in vitro experiments were divided into four groups, the first group being the control, the second group Fenton’s reagent (FeCl2+H2O2, Fenton R), the third group Fenton’s reagent plus T. spicata extracts, and the fourth group Fenton’s reagent plus Q. ithaburensis extracts. According to the experimental results, while the LPO level in the T. spicata group partially decreased (p<0.05), the LPO level in the Q. ithaburensis group was distinctly high (p<0.001) compared to the control group. The LPO level in the Fenton R group when compared to the T. spicata group, increased ten-fold (p <0.0001), where the Q. ithaburensis group decreased by 50% (p <0.001). When the DPPH radical scavenging activity of the extracts of T. spicata and Q. ithaburensis were examined, they were found to be as effective as quercetin (p<0.05) The fatty acid levels were analyzed for the in vitro environment, the amount of fatty acids in the T. spicata and Q. ithaburensis groups were higher than that of the Fenton R group (p<0.001). Our test results confirm that T. spicata and Q. ithaburensis extracts decreased the LPO level in the Fenton reagent containing environment and they noticeably protect the unsaturated fatty acids in the environment from radical sourced oxidations.

In the present study the effects of Bisphenol A (BPA) and Tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) on seed germination of a bread wheat variety, Sagittario, and a durum wheat variety, Zenith, were investigated. In addition, some of the biochemical changes in seedling roots and shoots were also measured. Seed germination changed insignificantly in 10 mg/L BPA and TBBPA applications; however, seed germination was significantly inhibited by 50 mg/L of BPA and TBBPA concentration in both varieties with the exception of 50 mg/L BPA in Zenith. Similarly, root and shoot development was adversely affected by high concentrations of BPA and TBBPA. The toxic effects of BPA and TBBPA on the roots were histochemically determined. Wheat varieties have the capacity to tolerate oxidative stress at 10 mg/L concentrations. The concentration-dependant decreases in the protein contents of the roots and shoots of the wheat varieties was also determined.
