Turkey has a large surface area with different topographic features. For this reason, there are regionally climate types (mediterranean climate, black sea climate and continental climate) that are affected by the natural structure of the regions. The climatic elements (temperature, precipitation, humidity, wind, etc.) that are manifested by these climate types are the most effective environmental factors on the recreational activities of the individuals living in the region. Therefore, the recreational activities preferred by the individuals differ according to the climatic characteristics of the region where they live in. The university life is an important period in the formation of the personalities of individuals and in the acquisition of habits that will continue for years. The recreational activities preferred in this period have an important effect on many aspects of the life of the students. University students go to cities where have different natural and cultural characteristics from the city they live in to continue their university education and they live there. The recreational activities preferences of university students may differ according to the characteristics of the region. The aim of this study is to examine the effect of climate on recreational activities preferred by university students who come from different regions for get a university education. In this context, the data is gathered by applying the questionnaire on coincidentally selected 174 students who are studying at Akdeniz University. The data was analysed via SPSS statistical analyse package software. During the evaluation of the data were used descriptive statistical methods such as Percentage (%) and frequency (f). These outcomes demonstrate that the climate factor of the region has an important effect on the recreational activities preferred by university students from regions with different climate types. It has been reached that the recreational activities of students who come from the continental climate and the Black Sea climate types are affected positively in the study area where dominant climate type is Mediterranean climate and that the individuals from this climate type prefer the outdoor recreational activities.

Climate-dependent changes in wood anatomical characteristics were studied for Rosa sp. and Nerium oleander sp. grown in phytosociological areas. For this purpose, wood samples were taken from the individual wood species grown in Antalya, Eskisehir, and Kastamonu provenances, where Terrestrial, Black Sea, and Mediterranean climate types prevail, and 11 anatomical characters were identified or calculated. As a result of the study, it has been determined that the climate has large effects on the characteristics that are the subject of the study and that each characteristic is at a higher level in individuals grown in areas where different climate types prevail. The highest values in Rosa species were obtained in the individuals grown under Terrestrial climate type in all characteristics except for LW (lumen widths), EC (elasticity coefficients), and FF (F-Factors.) Whereas in Nerium oleander, the highest values were obtained in individuals grown in the Mediterranean climate type in FL (fibre lengths), LW (lumen widths), FR (felting ratios), and EC (elasticity coefficients). For the same species type, in the Terrestrial climate, RIJID (rigidity coefficients), MUHT (Muhlstep ratios), and RUNK (Runkel ratios), and in the Black Sea climate DWT (double wall thicknesses) and WT (wall thicknesses) characteristics had high values.

SynopsisThere are 3 types of climate in Turkey: Mediterranean, Continental and Oceanic. The greatest part of the country, including much of the montane area, comes under the influence of various types of Mediterranean climate; the Continental climate occurs in two distinct areas in N and NE Anatolia; the Oceanic climate prevails in the region bordering the Black Sea. The forest vegetation of Turkey may also be divided into 3 main classes: QUERCETEA ILICIS; QUERCETEA PUBESCENTIS; QUERCO-FAGETEA. The first is confined to a coastal zone of the Mediterranean, the second is throughout the inner Mediterranean area, the last is in the Euxine zone of N Anatolia. Steppe vegetation belongs to the class ASTRAGALOBROMETEA widespread in C Anatolia and the Taurus.

Compaginar el proceso de aprendizaje con la práctica deportiva constituye para muchos universitarios un obstáculo difícil de superar. Esta situación se ve agravada con frecuencia por los escasos apoyos y la falta de orientación específica que reciben estos estudiantes, lo que les lleva en muchos casos a situaciones de fracaso o abandono. Por este motivo, el análisis de los factores que se encuentran implicados en el desarrollo de esta doble actividad constituye un marco de referencia para que los centros universitarios planifiquen acciones preventivas de asesoramiento y apoyo. Esta fue la finalidad de este estudio, llevado a cabo con una muestra de estudiantes universitarios de distintas titulaciones que practicaban deporte de alta competición, al tiempo que cursaban estudios universitarios. Se analizaron cuatro factores fundamentales: adaptación a la vida universitaria, dificultades y necesidades, apoyos y ayudas recibidas en el proceso formativo y expectativas hacia el desarrollo profesional. Se llegó a la conclusión de que era necesario contemplar en la enseñanza universitaria medidas de apoyo que permitieran armonizar la práctica deportiva con el proceso formativo.Palabras clave: Estudios y deporte; orientación al alumnado; adaptación a la vida universitaria; proyecto formativo del alumnado; atención personalizada.Abstract: Combine the learning process with sport is a difficult obstacle to overcome for many university students. This situation is usually aggravated because of the little support and the lack of specific guidance given to these students, leading them to situations of failure or dropout. For this reason, the analysis of the factors that are involved in the development of this dual activity constitutes a reference framework for university centers to plan preventive counseling and support actions. This was the main purpose of this study, conducted with a sample of university students of different degrees who practice top-level sport while were attending university. Four main factors were analyzed: adjustment to university life, difficulties and needs, support and assistance received in the training process and expectations for professional development. The conclusion reached was the need to consider in university education some support measures to integrate academic and sporting aspirations.Key words: Studies and sport; student guidance; adapting to university life; student’s formative project; personalized attention.

This multiproxy study on SE Black Sea sediments provides the first detailed reconstruction of vegetation and environmental history of Northern Anatolia between 134 and 119 ka. Here, the glacial–interglacial transition is characterized by several short-lived alternating cold and warm events preceding a meltwater pulse (~ 130.4–131.7 ka). The latter is reconstructed as a cold arid period correlated to Heinrich event 11. The initial warming is evidenced at ~ 130.4 ka by increased primary productivity in the Black Sea, disappearance of ice-rafted detritus, and spreading of oaks in Anatolia. A Younger Dryas-type event is not identifiable. The Eemian vegetation succession corresponds to the main climatic phases in Europe: i) the Quercus–Juniperus phase (128.7–126.4 ka) indicates a dry continental climate; ii) the Ostrya–Corylus–Quercus–Carpinus phase (126.4–122.9 ka) suggests warm summers, mild winters, and high year-round precipitation; iii) the Fagus–Carpinus phase (122.9–119.5 ka) indicates cooling and high precipitation; and iv) increasing Pinus at ~ 121 ka marks the onset of cooler/drier conditions. Generally, pollen reconstructions suggest altitudinal/latitudinal migrations of vegetation belts in Northern Anatolia during the Eemian caused by increased transport of moisture. The evidence for the wide distribution of Fagus around the Black Sea contrasts with the European records and is likely related to climatic and genetic factors.

The associations and ecological conditions of the existence of modern diatoms of the North-West (Pridneprovsky), Prikerchensky and Eastern regions of the subtidal zone of the Black Sea are considered. Based on the unity of the composition of the Present and Sarmatian-Meotian diatom flora, an attempt has been made to model some of the ecological c situation of the Late Miocene Euxinian basin.
