“Sevdiğim Yaz Geldi Yine”
The editorial group of The Journal of Turkish Librarianship, organized a forum called “TheNew Turning Point in Turkish Librarianship”. In this forum, the editorial process, the differentsections of the Journal, and the principles of citing sources, were shared with the participants.In addition to this, a document which includes the Journal’s vision and mission as well as itsorganizational structure has been made available on the web page. Furthermore, in order tomeet international standards and provide the best services to our esteemed readers, OJS (OpenAccess Magazine Management System) has been reinstalled and the email server reconfigured.Good wishes and joy are shared for the summer in this editorial as well.“Sevdiğim yaz geldi yine Karıncalar ve sineklerle çıktık yeryüzüne Barbunla lüferle marulla zeytinle Uzaklarda kaldı nisanları basan sis, bun, yağmur Karadeniz'de bir mavi, çocuklar sevinsin diye Şairler sevinsin diye sevdiğim, yaz geldi yine
A Real Intellectual: Prof. Dr. Meral Alpay Şenöz
Meral Hoca ile tanışma ve çalışma dönemimi, Hocam hayattayken hazırlanan armağan kitapta dönemlere ayırarak aktarmaya çalışmıştım. Tekrara düşme ve bir şeyleri atlamış olma kaygısıyla yazıyı tekrar okudum ve aşağıdaki metni tüm içtenliğimle yazmaya çalıştım.I tried to tell my story about the time I spent with Meral Alpay while she was alive. My article in the books differs from it. I have written it with complete sincerity and my deepest regards
Global Digital Citizenship
Bu çalışma ile Küresel Dijital Vatandaşlık Kurumu (Global Digital Citizen Foundation) tarafından hazırlanan Dijital Vatandaşlık Sözleşmelerini Türkçe’ye kazandırmak; dijital vatandaşlık algısının ülkemizde oluşmasına ve gelişmesine katkı sağlamak amaçlanmaktadır.This work was carried out to add Digital Citizenship Agreements created by Global Digital Citizenship Foundation to Turkish literature and provide contribution to create and improve digital citizenship awareness in Turkey
The usability of voluntary carbon markets as a financial instrument in Turkish forestry sector
There have been many international studies and cooperations to avoid global warming and climate change as being global disasters. As a result of these studies, to avoid these problems, bilateral, regional and multilateral cooperations, legal instruments, incentive mechanisms and international funds are developed. One of these instruments is global carbon market as a cost-effective method to combat climate change. Thanks to carbon markets, projects in renewable energy, energy efficiency, waste management and forestry sectors aiming to reduce greenhouse gas emissions can be developed at. As forests are the most important terrestrial carbon sinks and deforestation and forest degradation are the third-largest source of carbon emissions, forestry sector is one of the crucial sectors in this process. In this context, Turkish forestry sector should benefit from international markets for protection, improvement and sustainable management of forest resources. Currently, Turkish forestry sector has not taken any financial support from these markets. In this study, it is aimed to determine and evaluate opportunities provided by voluntary carbon markets for Turkish forestry sector financing
Sustainable ecotourism management in protected areas
In recent years, there is an increase in social and environmental awareness. As a result of this, tourists prefer tourism types which do not affect cultural and natural resources negatively. Thus, sustainable tourism and ecotourism activities in protected areas such as National Park and Natural Park have gained importance. Within this period, tourists and local community in these areas are most important stakeholders. There is no consensus about evaluation of sustainability, but overall approach is that sustainability can be defined with criteria ad indicators. In this study it is aimed to evaluate possible criteria and indicators for sustainable ecotourism in protected areas within the context of Turkish forestry
Modelling of Adsorption Kinetic Processes—Errors, Theory and Application
Adsorption has become a competitive method in the field of wastewater and air treatment. Adsorption kinetics is one of the main factors that must be understood before the applicability of any adsorbent. In every adsorption process, linear or non-linear analysis of the kinetics is applied. The goodness of fit index (coefficient of correlation or sum of squares) is applied to access the best model. The usage of linear or non-linear from of the adsorption kinetics has an impact on the distribution of error function. Almost in every adsorption study, linear forms have been used to conclude the best kinetic model that influence the adsorption mechanism—which might be an error. Therefore, this review highlights the mistakes in the usage of linear and non-linear models. The applicability of the adsorption kinetics in wastewater treatment is also illuminated
Effects of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) on Heavy Metal and Salt Stress
The Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are microorganisms that live symbiotically with plant roots and have many benefits to soil and plants. In this study, some effects of AMF which are known to be soil and plant beneficial, have been evaluated and solution proposals have been put forward against heavy metal and salinity stress in the soil. Salt accumulation and high concentrations of heavy metal in the soil affects negatively the microbial diversity and activity. Removal of salt acumulation and heavy metal from contaminated soil by chemical and physical methods is both very expensive and ineffective. Therefore, AMF are important for alleviating the heavy metal and salt stress in plants. AMF can alter plant physiol¬ogy and root morphology, increase the uptake of nutrients and water from the soil through an extensive hyphal network, decrease the use of chemical fertilizer, interact with other soil microorganisms plant growth promoting, induce of some resistance parameters in the plants and produce the glomalin which develops the properties and structure of soil. AMF are eco-friendly solutions according to traditional methods and the use of suitable plant-fungi combinations increases the chances of success of these applications
