The Somali pastoral economy is mainly based on range animal resources. Over 60 percent of the Somali human population subsist in pastoralism. Pastoralists contribute more than 40 percent of the GDP and 50 cent of National export. Somalia is a rangeland country. About 90 percent of it is best suited for foraging by camels, cattle, sheep and goats. The products obtained from camels are important in the nutrition of the Somali people. Camels ‘ meat and milk are widely used as well as various products are obtained from camels. However, due to the culture, economic and social life based on camel farming, Giants and camel farming have profoundly influenced the shaping of traditional folk culture in Somalia. Such a social lifestyle, belief, property acquisition, the end of the feud, legal decisions and many more areas show the influence of the culture of camels. Somali camel culture has been found to meet the criteria set for its registration on UNESCO’s list of Intangible Cultural Heritage at a high level. While searching literature, it has been observed that the methodology of geography has been ignored in the camel researches about Somalia. The research was supported by field studies and observations in the Hiiraan Region in 2017-2018, as well as interviews with camel herders.

The Değirmendere basin is located in the Sakarya River basin in the eastern part of Bilecik and corresponds to the 494 km2 area drained by Değirmendere, also known as Harmanköy Stream. Değirmendere roughly flows in the northeast southwest direction and reaches the Sakarya River by splitting of the Akköy Plateau, which is a threshold for 1100–1200 m of elevations such as Gök Tepe, Harmankaya Tepe and Sivri Tepe. Harmankaya (Kayaboğazı) Canyon is the subject of many geological-geomorphological studies owing to its formation and development because of the said splitting. Different views have emerged on the geomorphological evolution and formation mechanism of the canyon, and several issues remain regarding its mechanism owing to many geomorphological issues that are yet to be comprehensively examined. Therefore, understanding the regional fluvial processes and providing satisfactory geomorphological information for canyon visitors are imperative. The canyon was protected under the “Harmankaya Canyon Natural Park” initiative in 2012, and the number of visitors to the canyon has been increasing daily. As the main element of the drainage network developed in the basin, Değirmendere is currently located in the upper ground in a manner that suits construction lines and layer dives. However, monoclinal shift remains missing due to the slopes of the canyon. Furthermore, a clear vertical cleavage independent of the layer dips indicates the effect of epigenesis. Moreover, the effects of active tectonism in the field were concluded by analysis of the valley base–valley height ratio to the valleys in the canyon. Because of such findings, the occurrence of Upper Eocene–Lower Miocene lake sediments at a height of 850 m around Selim village in the northeast of the canyon indicates the occurrence of ponding after epigenesis and before antesedance.

The Eastern Black Sea region of Turkey attracts widespread attention owing to its rugged topography and rich vegetation because of high rainfall. This region merges with the Caucasus Mountains in the east and is separated from the Central Black Sea region by the Melet River. The eastern part of the Melet River comprises the Colchic flora regions defined within the Euxine Sea region. This region is located in the Eastern Black Sea coastal mountains and defined as an Important Plant Area because of its floristic richness and high levels of endemism; it also provides a habitat for plants with high economic value. The humid forests in the vicinity of Uzungöl are dominated by broad-leaved trees [such as eastern beech ( Fagus orientalis ), hornbeam ( Carpinus betulus ), alder ( Alnus glutinosa subsp. barbata ), Anatolian chestnut ( Cestanea sativa ), elm ( Ulmus glabra ), maples ( Acer trautvetteri and A. cappadocicum ), and aspen ( Populus tremula )] in elevated regions of 800–1000 m; these trees are mostly deciduous in winter. As the elevation increases, these trees are replaced by evergreen coniferous forests, which predominantly comprise oriental spruce ( Picea orientalis ) and Eastern Black Sea fir ( Abies nordmanniana subsp. nordmanniana ). Finally, the upper limit of forest elevation varies between 2200 and 2250 m. In such elevated regions, birch species ( Betula litwinowii and B. pendula ) form pure communities in some areas. Woody species such as Rhododendron are specific to the Colchic flora region and extend to the alpine region. Some aquatic plant species such as water horsetail ( Equisetum fluviatile ), cattail ( Typha shuttleworthii ), soft rush ( Juncus effusus ), purple loosestrife ( Lythrum salicaria ), and simplestem bur-reed ( Sparganium erectum subsp. neglectum ) have been identified in regions located in the vicinity of Uzungöl. Increasing numbers of tourism-related buildings have been constructed around the Uzungöl lake since the 1980s, and an increase in the number of tourists has also conferred great pressure on the natural vegetation. The most common invasive plant in the study region is oneseed bur-cucumber ( Sicyos angulatus ), which is native to eastern North America.
