Achieving maritime climate ambitions

The southern coast of Crimea (SCC) with its wonderful, dry climate has long gained fame primarily for the fact that pulmonary tuberculosis is perfectly healed and healed here. In the old days, when there were no sanatoriums on the South Coast of Crimea, patients came here and often recovered from a difficult, seemingly irreparable process. Tuberculosis doctors who came here in poor condition, sometimes on stretchers, recovered, worked and lived up to 70 years or more (prof. Fedorov, Dmitriev, Lebedev, Shtangeev, etc.). And now many doctors work here - former tuberculosis patients. There was a time when Yalta was, one might say, inhabited by former consumptive.

SUMMARYHeat-tolerance tests and observations on coat shedding were made on Santa Gertrudis and Hereford heifers of similar age in the warm humid climate of Fiji.Coat shedding (which is influenced by day length) was normal in the locally bred, smooth-coated Santa Gertrudis whose heat-tolerance was good. However, the Herefords, which had come from New Zealand and had very woolly coats failed to shed properly and suffered serious heat stress.Clipping and the use of a close-fitting jute rug demonstrated the specially high heatretaining properties of a thick natural coat of cattle hair; also the special need to select animals of low coat score for the very humid tropics.

Eastern Half

That part of northern Anatolia known in Greek and Roman times as Bithynia and Paphlagonia comprises a number of high ridges running from west to east, through which the rivers break their way in their tortuous courses down to the Black Sea. The region discussed in this article in fact comprises Paphlagonia, the eastern half of Bithynia and part of Phrygia, from the lower Sakarya to the mouth of the Halys; but, since these names do not apply to the Bronze Age, the whole will be termed northern Anatolia. As far south as the crest of the main ridge bounding the Anatolian plateau along its north side the land has a maritime climate quite different from that of either the plateau or the Mediterranean coast: rainfall is abundant, even at times in the summer; deciduous forests cover these north-facing slopes, right to the top. Sinop provides the best natural harbour on this coast. The change to the steppe country of the plateau is abrupt.
