Today, the problem of air pollution has been highlighted by rapid population growth and urbanisation, along with the development of industry. Over the last fifty years, much attention has been paid to the relationship between lichens and airborne particulate matter (especially heavy metals). The use of living organisms in air pollution studies is now widely accepted in many countries and the results of these biomonitoring studies are very important for future action. The goal of this study was to determine heavy metals in Kırşehir province using the bag technique, a biomonitoring approach, with Pseudevernia furfuracea (L.) Zopf lichen and to develop a pollution map of the city. In November 2002, lichen specimens were obtained from an unpolluted region in the Yapraklı Mountains, Çankırı, and transplanted to 4 distinct places in Kırşehir. After 3 and 6 months of exposure, they were collected in order to analyse heavy metals (Cu, Cd, Mn, Ni, Pb and Zn) with Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS). In addition, chlorophyll-a and chlorophyll-b contents were determined by Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) method. The findings revealed that the heavy metal contents in various stations are the result of industrial, traffic, and heating activities. As a result, P. furfuracea showed excellent bioindicator ability for detecting air pollution. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Environmental destruction is dimensioned as one of the most important issues that the whole world is dealing with in the third millennium. For this reason, various policy instruments are developed and put into practice, both internationally and nationally. Although these policies cover all production and consumption areas, they also come to the forefront in terms of the agricultural sector due to their strategic importance. Environmental Agricultural Land Protection Program (ÇATAK), which came into effect in 2006, has been implemented in order to prevent environmental damage in the agricultural sector in Türkiye. In this framework, the production practices of grain producers benefiting from ÇATAK program supports in the Seyfe Lake region of Kırşehir province were examined in environmental terms. For this purpose, 100 producers were drawn into the sample and a survey study was conducted. The obtained data set was made into cross tables, interpreted and suggestions were made. The results were statistically supported by chi-square analysis. Accordingly, although it was determined that the producers did not implement practices that would cause environmental destruction intensively, it was observed that they needed to adopt the right methods from the right sources in the use of fertilizers and pesticides. In addition, it has been determined that the state does not have comprehensive knowledge about the agricultural policy instruments it has implemented. For this reason, it is considered important to implement training-extension activities frequently and dynamically.

Climate change is one of the biggest global environmental problems faced by mankind in recent times. Therefore, determining the knowledge and awareness levels of individuals on this issue is very important in terms of contributing to the solutions to be developed in the fight against climate change at the local level. In this study, it is aimed to determine the approaches, consciousness and awareness levels of Kırşehir Ahi Evran University students and local people about climate change in Kırşehir. The main material of the research consisted of primary data obtained from 250 face-to-face surveys applied to students and the public. Related literatures are also secondary data. The survey questions include questions about the individual characteristics of the person (gender, age, education level, job), climate change awareness level, and the effects of climate change on agriculture and water resources. The obtained data were analyzed using SPSS 26.0 statistical package program. In the evaluation of the data, descriptive statistics, frequency tables and graphical representations were used. As a result of the analyzes performed using the Kruskall-Wallis test, it is seen that there are statistically significant differences between the education groups in the variables of climate change awareness level and climate change risk perception level (P0.05), and there was a statistically significant difference between the occupational group averages in the climate change risk perception level (P

Kırşehir is in the first rank in Türkiye in terms of cultivation area and production of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.). Although many abiotic and biotic factors are known to limit production and quality in chickpea plant, one of the most important biotic factors is Ascochyta blight (caused by: Ascochyta rabiei (Pass) Labr.). Product losses of up to 100% occur during production seasons when conditions are suitable for epidemics. In order to prevent these losses, fungicide applications are made intensively to prevent disease of Ascochyta blight. It is important to determine the incidence and prevalence of Ascochyta blight in the field in deciding on which chemicals are needed to be used. This study was conducted in Akçakent, Akpınar, Boztepe, Çiçekdağı, Kaman, Merkez, Mucur districts to determine the incidence and prevalence of Ascochyta blight in the chickpea fields of Kırşehir province in 2021. In the survey study, 8.425 da production areas located at 57 different points were examined. In the survey study, 12.600 plants were examined and only 51 infected plants were determined. The presence of factor was confirmed by considering the colony morphology of the isolates obtained as a result of the isolations made from the collected samples and the characteristics of conidia. The presence of factor was confirmed by considering the colony morphology of the collected samples and the characteristics of conidia. In addition, the prevalence (%) and Ascochyta blight rate (%) in the surveyed chickpea cultivation areas were, also, calculated. Results showed that, the location-wide Ascochyta blight prevalence rate was as 29.8% and Ascochyta blight rate was 0.40%. To conclude, although Ascochyta blight was observed at varying levels in Kırşehir chickpea production areas, the incidence and prevalence of Ascochyta blight in the 2021 production season were limited number, more likely, due to the climate conditions in 2021.

Oil rose (Rosa damascena Mill.) is a great important aromatic and medicinal plant widely used in cosmetics, food processing, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemical industries. Water supply and nutrition are vital for plant growth and yield. Water stress causes plant growth, development, and yield loss at different levels. This study was conducted to investigate the effect of different water and nitrogen levels (N) on growth, yield, and quality parameters and determine the chemical composition of oil rose through gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC/MS) analysis. The fieldwork for this research was conducted from March 2014 to June 2018. According to the results of study treatments, the highest fresh flower yield per plant was determined with the I0.50, 80 kg ha−1 treatment. In 2017 and 2018, as fertilizer level increased and irrigation level decreased, fresh flower yield, oil yield per plant, plant height, number of branches in plant, and leaf area values decreased. However, there was little tradeoff between reductions in applied water and fresh flower yield. Furthermore, the GC-MS results reveal little change in essential oil quality as water stress increases with diminished applied water. The yield response and essential oil quality are the direct result of the relatively invariant WUE. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Urban identity is the sum of the tangible and intangible qualities of the cities and the city differs from the others with these qualities. In parallel with the urban development, physical environments change and transform in interaction with the historical fabric. The buildings shaped in the cities we live in appear as the concrete reflection of the way of life, aesthetic understanding and the technology used by the cultures that have existed in the settlement in the historical process. The environmental effects of the monumental structures in this built environment and the use of open spaces are effective in creating and shaping the urban identity. In addition to the worship function of the monumental structures, the usage of open spaces of mosques like socialization, meeting, gathering etc. is important within the scope of urban memory. Within the scope of this study, it is aimed to evaluate the transformation process of Kırşehir Ahi Evran Zawiya, which has been organized with different applications in the historical process, and to investigate the contribution of the indoor and outdoor spaces of the building to the urban identity. The role of using the open spaces of the building for functions such as fairs, shows and ceremonies within the scope of annual Ahilik Week in keeping the urban memory active has been investigated.

Kırşehir is one of the important crossroads and passageways in Anatolia; In this respect, it has become one of the centers where different elements of Turkish culture meet, melt and distill. In this geography, great events ranging from the Seljuks to the Ilkhanians, from the principalities to the establishment of the Ottoman Empire, from great revolts to constructivism and state establishment have been experienced. Şeyh Edebalı, who made and kneaded the will that founded the Ottoman State, is a person of these places. The pioneers of the Babâî revolts emerged from these lands, Âşık Paşa who was the son of those pioneers, participated in the foundation of the Ottoman, and historian Aşıkpaşaoğlu was nearby Yavuz in Chaldoran, Marjedabik and Rhidâniye. Within this paper, it will be put with examples that the state of separation in Old Turkish, which is a language feature reflected in this historical,geographik and social structure, is met with the presence of the suffix. Besides; the words such as samağır/samağar; tuhran/tufran

Lace is one of the handicrafts that has an important place in our culture. Laces, created with its own different methods and techniques, although it has been used for a long time; especially in the Republican period. Laces have been an important communication tool as well as being a means of responding to daily needs and adorning. Although it is used in different areas, the most common use of lace in the Kırşehir region is the scarf edge. n this study, the terminology of the lace used as a headscarf edge in the Kırşehir region is given. By giving the meanings of these terms, which we have reached through compilation and scanning, the terminology related to this field has been tried to be formed. The lace terms that we determined from Kırşehir region are given under six headings according to the concept that they are close in meaning. The reflection rate of these terms in the dictionaries was evaluated by comparing the 131 lace terms determined from the region with the Compilation Dictionary, the Contemporary Turkish Dictionary, the Scan Dictionary and the Kırşehir Regional Dialects dictionaries. It has been seen that the indefinite noun phrase and adjective phrase structure are widely used and Turkish words are mostly included while creating the lace terms of the Kırşehir region.

In the provinces covered by Konya Plain Project (KOP) Regional Development Administration, fishing and aquaculture statistics were examined and the current situation was revealed. Approximately, 1.12% of Turkey's total aquaculture production is carried out in KOP. Rainbow trout (98.5%) is the most commonly cultivated species in the region and tilapia (0.9%) and carp (0.6%) are grown in small amounts. No aquaculture is carried out in Kirikkale and Aksaray provinces, and the highest production is in Kirsehir (35.2%), Yozgat (24.5%) and Karaman (24.3%), respectively. In 2018, a total of 3.259 tons captured in KOP, corresponding to 10.8% of total fishing catch in Turkey. During 2016-2018, the highest mean yields from fishing was realized in Yozgat (36.5%) followed by Kirsehir (30.0%) and Konya (23.6%). With regard to species composition, big-scale sand smelt had the highest catch rate with 37.5% and followed by gibel carp (36.5%), common carp (12.8%), zander (5.8%) and crayfish (2.4%), respectively. The catch rate of all other species was around 1.0% or less. In order to increase the amount of yields from fisheries in the KOP region, strategies should be developed in line with the principles of sustainable fishing and aquaculture-based production should be promoted in suitable areas.

Weaving is a handicraft in Turks with a very old history. The importance of animal husbandry has brought about the evaluation of animal products in different ways. Especially raw materials such as wool, cotton and silk have taken their place in weaving looms by passing through different stages. The most common ones among types of weaving are carpet, rug and cicim weaving. Weaving samples that we can see in many geographies where Turks live have become an important industry branch in some centers. One of these centers is Kırşehir. Kırşehir carpet whose first example was seen in the 17th century completed its development in the 18th and 19th centuries. In the 19th century, Kırşehir region became an important weaving center and provided job opportunities to many people. In parallel with the development of the art of weaving, a terminology has emerged in this field. In this study, 249 weaving terms used in Kırşehir region were determined by compilation and scanning. The identified 249 noun elements were given thematically under seven sub-headings, and it was revealed on which subject the terminology had more vocabulary. Since the subject of verbs will be covered in another study, only nouns related to weaving are included in this study. The detected vocabulary was compared with the Compilation Dictionary, Search Dictionary and Contemporary Turkish Dictionary and it was seen that the terminology in this field was reflected very little in these dictionaries.

October 30, 1961 date, which was held between Turkey and Germany "Labor Agreement", the labor migration process milan had been, and after many European countries (Belgium, Austria, the Netherlands, France, Sweden ...) are also signed similar treaties. As a result of the signed agreements, these countries were seen as a hope door and our citizens took the path of these countries, especially Germany. Since the first worker went to Germany, many of our compatriots have died either abroad or on the way to homeland. In addition, we know that there are many expatriates who cannot go to the river and cannot return. As a result of these migrations, the pain of the losses suffered for various reasons was put into words by those who remained in the family, and a repertoire of lament that we can only call Germany laments has emerged. Undoubtedly, these laments are formed by the design and presentation of some events that shape and internalize the world of thought by their producers. Through these images that they express with a strong expression, people have expressed their observations, objects, and expectations about the real world in their minds. In this study, Germany themed lament texts determined from various sources were classified according to their subjects. In these texts of lament in which the common suffering of people live vividly, what is felt is redesigned with images, and with these designs, the perspective of society on concepts such as migration, German, Germany has been tried to be explained.

Predicting the outcomes of earthquakes before they occur is one of the fundamental components of modern disaster management. Loss estimation analyses have an important place at the assessment stage of earthquakes and in estimation of losses that earthquakes may lead to. With these analyses, it is possible to access information that is relevant to potential damages and losses. In this paper, loss estimation analyses were carried out by using the earthquake scenario which foresaw a previous earthquake that was experienced in an around Kırşehir which is seismically active and located in the Central Anatolia Region in Turkey. The 1938 Akpınar earthquake which occurred in and around the province of Kırşehir was taken into consideration as an earthquak escenario, and loss estimation analyses were conducted for this earthquake scenario. In this paper, significant contributions will be made for preparation of an earthquake master plan and risk management plan for Kırşehir. Besides, studies on reduction of earthquake losses in the region may utilise these results.

Folk literature which has an important place in folk culture studies has a rich diversity in our country. "Türkü", which is a kind of verse sung with a melody in anonymous Turkish folk literature, is played and sung in different forms in accordance with regions. Etymologically, the origin of the word “Türkü”, meaning “folk song” in Turkish, is the word “Türk”. Türkü means unique to Türks. The byword “Those who want to understand Turks should listen to türkü” of Turkish Folk Music Artist Şemsî Yastıman from Kırşehir, explains this. In anonymous folk literature, türkü that are sung with a melody, written with syllabic meter and composed with folk melodies are defined as koşuk. Anatolian folk has expressed all their pain, happiness, love, opinions of the world and lifestyles with türküs. Türküs take different names in accordance with their regions, topics and melodies. So, türküs have different varieties such as hoyrat, oturak, kırık hava, uzun hava. If türküs are examined in accordance with their topics, they consist of ten different groups such as lullabies, children’s ballads, nature, love, heroism and soldiery, ceremony, work ballads, interactive ballads, death and game ballads. In the lyrics of türküs with these different topics, the mention of textiles which are a different part of the folk culture cannot be denied. In this article, textiles mentioned in anonymous or singer türküs of Kırşehir which is the center of türküs in middle Anatolia are examined, and it is intended to trace the Kırşehir regional textiles in the türküs. During the examination, over 60 türküs that contain the name of a textile were encountered. These textiles are addressed by separating them into five groups such as cloth name (yazma, oyalı yazma, şalvar, cepken etc.), fabric name (aba, kadife, basma, saten etc.), semi-finished product name (iplik, urgan etc.), raw material name (yün, ipek, keten etc.) and weaving tool name (gücü, ıstar, hana, darak, sındı, tefe etc.). It is determined that regional textiles which cannot be encountered in present time are mentioned, and even described in "türküs".

This study was carried out in 2017-2018 with the aim of determining the performances of Mondial Gala, Red Chief, Golden Delicious, Braeburn and Granny Smith apple varieties grafted on MM.106 semi-dwarf apple rootstock, by taking phenological observation and pomological characteristics into account, under Kırşehir conditions. In the study, harvest dates with bud blossom, bud burst, first flowering, full bloom and end of flowering were determined as phenological observations. Pomological characteristics, fruit weight (g), fruit width and length (mm), soluble solids content (TSSC), fruit flesh firmness (kg cm-2), pH, number of seeds (pieces) and seed weight (g), fruit stalk length and thickness (mm) and color values were determined. Phenological observations; In 2018 flower buds were awakened 1 week earlier than in 2017. Fruit weight in the examined varieties, 163.31-215.00 g, fruit width 71.10-77.33 mm, fruit size 63.20-71.26 mm, soluble solids content (TSSC) 11.16%-15.41%, fruit flesh firmness 4.72-6.14 kg cm-2, pH 3.31-4.03, number of seeds 6.75-9.35 pcs, seed weight 0.35-0.59 g, fruit stalk length 24.80-35.87 mm, fruit stalk thickness 1.79-2.74 mm, fruit skin color L value 19.50-78.86, a value -21.01- 43.24, and b value was changed between 10.10-51.24. Considering the phenological observations and pomological characteristics, it is concluded that apple varieties such as Mondial Gala, Red Chief, Golden Delicious, Braeburn and Granny Smith are suitable for Kırşehir ecological conditions.

It is not possible to prevent earthquakes and to give notice in advance by using contemporary technological opportunities. However, it is possible to take precautions in order to minimize losses in case of an earthquake. Loss estimation models take a significant role in determining these precautions. Earthquake scenarios are used when preparing loss estimation models. The objective in earthquake scenarios is to estimate the economic losses, the damage to infrastructure, and the social impact associated with the potential earthquake. In this paper, it was discussed loss estimation models of three different earthquake scenarios developed for Kırşehir where is a seismically active province of Turkey. In the study, information about the seismicity of Kırşehir province was also given. Individual building damages, life and property losses and financial losses due to structural damage were obtained within each of the three earthquake scenarios. Building damages were calculated by two different methods which included in the software package. The greatest structural damage was observed in the Scenario 2 earthquake that is Akpınar Earthquake. The work has an important place in terms of modern disaster management and urban transformation. Such studies can be used as a support tool for decision makers at the pre-disaster preparation stage.

History BC Sock knitting dates back to the 8th century has an important place in traditional handicrafts. Hand-knitted socks are one of the most important elements of local clothing. As a garment, socks are used to protect people from external influences, to complement and decorate clothing. Sock knitting is one of the common handicrafts in Anatolia. Knitted socks show differences from region to region and include the motifs, knitting technique, purpose of use, color and pattern characteristics and cultural structure of that region. In addition, socks which take place as a dowry in the marriages of folk culture still exist in some settlements of Kırşehir province by being knitted, worn and gifted. The socks which are knitted with traditional methods in Kırşehir are examined in the scope of the research. The aim of this study is to determine the current situation of hand knitted socks with a long history in the Kırşehir region. For this purpose, socks samples of people who are known to do this work in the settlements where knitting work was compiled. Ten samples of socks encountered in the region were examined. The literature information about the subject, the photographs of the samples and the data obtained through the interview method were the material of the study. The material, technique, color, motif, form and formal characteristics were determined and documented with photographs in the examination conducted on the samples determined within the scope of the field research. It was determined that the samples were knitted with knitting techniques such as wool tools, five-knot tool, various knitting models, flat, reverse and rubber knitting. Socks are found in dowry, worn in daily life and very ornamented examples are used as decorative goods or souvenirs. It was observed that socks knitting decreased and began to disappear in the region. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study assesses the effects of topography and land cover data resolutions on the estimates of flood extent, inundation depths, flow velocities, and arrival times of a two-dimensional (2D) hydrodynamic HEC-RAS model under differently sized mesh structures, with the example of the urban floodplain of Kilicozu Creek (Kirsehir, Turkey). To analyse these effects under a wide range of data conditions, seven different resolution digital surface models (DSMs) (from 0.0432 to 10 m/pixel) and Manning's roughness layers (MRLs) (from 2 to 25 m/pixel) are produced for the subject floodplain by processing the high-quality DSM and orthophoto of the Kirsehir city centre. Additionally, seven different computational point spacings (CPSs) (from 2 m × 2 m to 25 m × 25 m) are tested to evaluate changes in the model outputs depending on the dimensions of mesh grids. Simulations are carried out for 19 different DSM, MRL, and CPS configurations under the 500-year flood scenario. The simulation performed for the most detailed model configuration is utilised as the base model simulation to compare the performances of other simulations. The model simulation configurated with the 2 m cell size DSM, 10 m cell size MRL, and 10 m × 10 m CPS shows comparable performance to the base model simulation with a small loss in the accuracy of the estimates, indicating that very-fine-resolution (less than 2 m) topography and high-resolution (less than 10 m) land cover data may not be indispensable to produce reliable simulations with 2D urban flood modelling using HEC-RAS software.

An important part of the periodicals, magazines have the traces of the time on which they are published. Therefore, these magazines are like consequences at the time of their publishing shedding light on the political, social and economic situation of the country. In the aftermath of the 1960 coup d’état, the new political period the country faces have not only affected the national press but also the local press to some extent. The main focus point of the study is the Kervansaray Magazine issued for the first time in April of 1964. Kervansaray Magazine published as the magazine of Kırşehir Community Centre talked about the social, political and economic events of the relevant period as well as the cultural and intellectual activities of Kırşehir during its short term publishing of 9 months. It is observed that the magazine did not include any ideological articles in its issues. However, it bears significant information on particularly Kırşehir’s history, geography, folklore, literature, and educational life as well as the local economic relations. The author staff of the magazine comprised of a few intellectuals of the city. In this study, articles in the magazine are examined as a whole. In the light of the articles in the magazine, it is possible to see a small section from the intellectual life of Kırşehir, a small province in 1960s.

The aim of the study was to determine the prevalence of Nosema disease caused by Nosema ceranae and Nosema apis in bee colonies in Kırşehir. A hundred worker honey bee samples were collected from each of 51 beekeepers in 31 locations in 5 provinces of Kırşehir (Centrium, Mucur, Akpınar, Boztepe and Kaman) in July 2014. A total 5100 samples were used in this study. The microscopic examinations of the study suggested that there was existence of Nosema spores in Centrium, Mucur, Akpınar and Boztepe with 25%, 23.07%, 12.5% and 60%, respectively; whereas no spores were detected in Kaman province. It was found a positive correlation between humidity and numbers of nosema spores. Molecular analyses showed that N. ceranae is only Nosema type in studied all positive samples.
