The most vital factor in the application of precision agriculture technology is the cost of the required high-technology equipment. The equipment cost is the major obstacle in adopting the precision agriculture. GPS receiver is one of the most essential tools with high initial costs in this technology. The aim of this study was to evaluate a low-cost GPS receiver in 3 different tests including static, dynamic circular area, and dynamic straight line tests. It was observed that the tested low-cost GPS receiver yielded a deviation of less than 1.50 m, 1.60 m, and 1.48 m in static, circular area, and …

Woods Of A Miocene Petrified Forest Near Ankara, Turkey, Ünal Akkemi̇k, Necla Türkoğlu, Imogen Poole, İhsan Çi̇çek, Nesi̇be Köse, Gürcan Gürgen
Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
The taxonomic composition of a recently discovered silicified fossil forest, preserved by volcanic activity 18.2-16.9 million years ago in Çamlıdere near Ankara (Turkey), is investigated. Many samples collected were divided into 2 groups as CAM1 and CAM2. Thin sections from transversal, radial, and tangential directions were cut to identify the woods. Wood identifications were performed using standard techniques and fossil wood features. The preserved wood indicates that the forest was composed almost exclusively of Taxodium (CAM1) and Sequoia (CAM2). These genera were extinct from Anatolia and Europe during late Miocene.

Effect Of Superparasitism On The Development Of The Solitary Parasitoid Chelonus Oculator Panzer (Hymenoptera: Braconidae), Hi̇lal Tunca, Neşet Kilinçer
Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
The egg-larval parasitoid Chelonus oculator Panzer (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) is a solitary endoparasitoid. The effect of superparasitism on the development of C. oculator was investigated on a host, Cadra cautella Walker (Lepidoptera : Pyralidae) at 25 °C, 60%-70% R.H., and 16:8 h (L:D) photoperiod. The development time of C. oculator from egg to adult was related to parasitism level from 42.5 ± 0.19 days under single parasitism to 48.4 ± 0.57 days under triple parasitism. The emergence rate of the parasitoid decreased as the parasitism level increased. In addition, the dry mass of adult parasitoid was significantly affected by the superparasitism. …

Detection Of Some Woody Plants In Late Oligocene Forests Of İstanbul, Nurgül Karlioğlu, Ünal Akkemi̇k, Hülya Caner
Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
A paleopalynological study was performed on the fossilized pollen found in the coal and clay layers of the Akçelik Coalmine, which is one of the open lignite quarries located at the northern part of İstanbul, and 15 genera belonging to 14 families were identified from the late Oligocene of İstanbul. Of these 14 families, 4 families belong to Gymnospermae, and 10 of them belong to Angiospermae. In the study, 85.8% of pollen is arboreal (AP) (woody plants), 10.4% is non-arboreal (NAP) (herbal plants), and rest of them (3.8%) could not be identified. The middle coal layer has a significant number …

Electric Multipole Moments Of Some Diatomic Molecules Molecules, M. Özgür Sezer, Ayhan Özmen, Hüseyi̇n Yüksel
Turkish Journal of Physics
Molecular Electric Multipole Moment (MEMM) integrals have been derived for diatomic molecular systems, and then some lower multipole moments as dipole moments and quadrupole moments have been calculated for some diatomic molecules. The calculations have been performed by using our analytical formula over Slater-Type orbitals (STOs) with Cade and Huo's basis sets and the GAMESS program package working with Gaussian-Type basis sets (GTOs). The expressions which involve factorials are given in terms of binomial coefficients in order to speed up calculations. The results have been obtained in agreement with data found in the literature.
Kantowski-Sachs Viscous Fluid Cosmological Model With A Varying \Lambda, Sharad Kandalkar, Pramod Khade, Sunita Gawande
Kantowski-Sachs Viscous Fluid Cosmological Model With A Varying \Lambda, Sharad Kandalkar, Pramod Khade, Sunita Gawande
Turkish Journal of Physics
We study the Kantowski-Sachs cosmological model filled with viscous fluid in the presence of cosmological term \Lambda. To get a deterministic solution, a condition between metric potentials is used. The viscous coefficient of bulk viscous fluid is assumed to be a power function of mass density, whereas coefficient of shear viscosity is considered proportional to scale of expansion in the model. It is found that the cosmological constant \Lambda is positive and is a decreasing function of time, which is supported by results from recent supernova observations. Some physical and geometrical properties of the models are also discussed.

Exact Peaked Wave Solution Of The Osmosis K(2,2) Equation, Xijun Deng, Libo Han
Turkish Journal of Physics
By using the first-integral method, an exact peaked wave solution to the K(2,2) equation with osmosis dispersion has been obtained directly. The obtained solution agrees well with the previously known solution in the literature. The first integral method is easier and quicker than other traditional techniques. It is shown that the first integral method is a standard and direct method, which may allow us to solve other more complicated solitary wave problems.

Heavy Ion Reactions Producing A Heavier Deformed Nucleus And Free Nucleons, Ahmed Osman
Turkish Journal of Physics
Carbon induced heavy ion reactions on the heavy ^{197}Au target are considered. The statistical scission model is used to calculate this fission process. In the present considered reactions, the process leads to the fragmentation of only one deformed heavy fragment and few nucleons. Angular distributions of the fission fragments are numerically calculated for different values of the incident energies in the range 64-104 MeV. The present theoretical calculations of the differential cross-sections are in good agreements with experimental data for the carbon incident energy 84 A MeV. The effective variance of this fission process is also calculated. The present numerically …

Cd_{1-X}Mn_Xs Dilute Magnetic Semiconductor: Application In Photoelectrochemical Cells, J. S. Dargad, L. P. Deshmukh
Turkish Journal of Physics
A new class of dilute magnetic semiconductor (DMS, CdMnS) thin film based photoelectrochemical cell is presented. DMS thin films are synthesized on both glass and stainless steel substrates using a chemical growth process. The preparation parameters, such as growth temperature, time, reaction pH, precursor concentrations, etc., were optimized to yield characteristically oriented films. The layer thickness was found to decrease with increase in Mn^{2+} concentration. Composition of the as-grown samples was determined by an EDS technique. The electrochemical cells were then formed out of these series of films as the active photoelectrodes, an electrolyte and a counter electrode. The cells …

Tau Sleptons And Tau Sneutrino Decays In Mssm Under The Cosmological Bounds, Levent Selbuz, Z. Zekeri̇ya Aydin
Turkish Journal of Physics
We present a numerical investigation of the fermionic two-body decays of tau sleptons \tilde \tau_{1,2} and \tau sneutrino in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model with complex parameters. In the analysis we particularly take into account the cosmological bounds imposed by WMAP data. We plot the CP-phase dependences for each fermionic two-body channel of \tilde \tau_{1,2} and \tau sneutrino and speculate about the branching ratios and total (two-body) decay widths. We find that the phase dependences of the decay widths of the third family sleptons are quite significant which can provide viable probes of additional CP sources. We also draw attention …

A variety of aldehydes react with acetic anhydride in the presence of a catalytic amount of H_2SO_4-silica to afford the corresponding 1,1-diacetates (acylals) in excellent yields. Ketones are not affected under the reaction conditions. The advantages are the simplicity of the acylation procedure, and the relatively non-toxic nature of the catalyst as well as its easy availability and low cost.

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Nickel(II) dipicolinate complex containing 2-amino-4- methylpyrimidine (2A-4Mpy), [Ni(2A-4Mpy)(dpc) (H_2O)_2] . 2H_2O was synthesized in solid state and its structural and spectroscopic properties were determined by XRD, IR, and UV-Vis techniques. The crystal data revealed that the Ni complex is in triclinic crystal systems with space group P-1 and Z = 2. The Ni(II) ion is bonded to dipicolinate ligand through pyridine N atom together with one O atom of each carboxylate group, 2 aqua ligands, and the N atom of 2-amino-4-methylpyrimidine, forming distorted octahedral geometry. IR and UV-Vis spectra of the complexes all agree with the observed crystal structure.
