The ecological significance of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) in Europe, especially in areas devastated by bark beetles, has led to its consideration as a substitute for Norway spruce. This pioneering species boasts sun and drought tolerance, fast growth, and wood industry value. To gauge its potential, we examined two ecotypes across two test sites over two years, focusing on height and growth increment. Through statistical analysis employing R software and linear mixed models, we assessed heritability, genotype by environment interaction, and spatial correlations. Both ecotypes exhibited significant differences in height and increment, varying by year and site. Heritability was higher in the second year, with increment showing greater stability. Genetic correlations between sites were evident, suggesting stable increment ranking across locations. These findings underscore the role of ecotypic variation in Scots pine growth, advocating for its consideration in reforestation. Acknowledging such dynamics is vital for effective forest management and reforestation in Central Europe, promoting sustainability and informed decision-making. Further research will enhance this understanding of preserving and enhancing the region's tree populations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of this study is to describe, in a historical and philosophical context, the foundations and developmental lines of a tradition defined as curriculum science or "didactic" in Continental Europe, particularly in Germany and Scandinavia. The principal aim here is introducing a theoretical approach based on a different philosophy, in addition to the techno-scientific Anglo-American theoretical approach. Didactic tradition has been of particular interest for curriculum researchers especially in the past two decades. With such an interactive focus, this paper is divided into four sections. Because this paper traces historical and philosophical pathways of inquiry, its research method is purely qualitative, based on document analysis. The findings of this analytical study are expected to contribute to the wider recognition of a philosophical-pedagogical tradition, which has not hitherto been paid much attention in Turkey.

Purpose - To provide insight into the relevant factors for faculty recruitment and retention that can help leadership of business schools to design and implement a tailored policy to recruit and retain academic talent in a highly competitive and international market. Design/methodology/approach - Two surveys were sent out in parallel to deans/directors and faculty of 181 European business schools. A total of 42 important factors were selected and ranked in order of importance for both recruitment and retention of academic talent. In addition the faculty were asked to indicate to what extent they are satisfied with each of the factors in their current situation. Deans/directors were asked to indicate to what extent they felt able to influence each of the factors. Findings - Factors of crucial importance for recruitment and retention were identified, both from the deans and from the faculty perspective. Perception gaps occurred between deans and faculty, as well as satisfaction gaps on important factors: this led to the identification of interesting policy problems and opportunities. Segmentation of the sample facilitated the demonstration of differences in perception between groups of faculty according to gender, age and rank, and between groups of schools according to legal structure, orientation, enrolment, and accreditation status. Research limitations/implications - Deans/directors of 69 European schools and 350 faculty members in 12 countries completed the survey. The database could be further enlarged to make more detailed analysis possible. Expanding the research to include schools of other continents would enable one to analyse cross-continent differences between business schools. Practical implications - The developed framework and the data provide an excellent opportunity for business schools' leadership to analyze the effectiveness of its policy and benchmark the school against a selected peer group. Originality/value - The survey and the developed framework for analysis are unique and, in this form, have never been done before. The value of the paper is that it presents unique evidence on important factors crucial to faculty management. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The paper deals with rock scripts, figures (petroglyphs) and writings which we have been considering for last twenty years. The scientists refer the beginning of age to the discovery of scripts. However it is proved claim that the pictures and figures started to be carved on rocks back in 14th millenium BC. Pictures carved on rocks are able to be interpreted into certain explanations as scripts and human history of 15 thousand years is available to our perception. Rock pictures and figures with turkic features are regularly encountered in most parts of Asia and Europe and north part of Africa. They possess similarities with toponyms, architectural and other cultural components. While considering all the cultural components it becomes obvious that the turks have been existing on earth for 15 thousand years with magnificent culture. The paper touches upon issues regarding the ancience of rock petrogylphs and figures with turkic features and their located areas. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper The Cow Feast, which the group of Mülkiyeli celebrates approximately 70 years, is discussed. Ankara University Faculty of Political Sciences, other name Mekteb-i Mülkiye, which is one of the educational institutions notices strength of tradition, exhibits a unique position with adherence to tradition and multi-hued structure. It is seen that in the formation of Mülkiyeli identity, which students, graduates and academic staff of Ankara University Faculty of Political Sciences carries, The Cow Feast has an important role. The Cow Feast is celebrated with the participation of students to continue their education, at first graduates to finish the university forty years ago and the other graduates and academic staff. The Feast consists of some parts like opening speeches, the pray, the cow walking, the decree, the fender and the others.The Cow Feast has a symbolic language and a distinctive image world. For the Mülkiyelies, the feast is beyond being an ordinary student festival, considered as a criticism festival. This article discusses history of Faculty of Political Sciences; ritual characteristics, structure, parts and functions of The Cow Feast, using the use of humor in the feast and its influence on the Mülkiyeli identity formation.

Everything in the history is the monuments of human. Namely thing that is made history is human. The historians are interested with everything that is related to human. The clothing culture is one of the subjects like that and has been since the old times. The mean of dress is different in all societies and it is not only a thing that is covered the body. And also it is the most important factor that tell the personalities and class of people. This case is unchanging factor in the social history. It is sometimes formed by the facilities of the ages. We feel the same case certainly. This subject is very wide and comprehensive. So in this paper, we studied to tell the general facilities of the clothing culture and interaction among other cultures by giving some comparasions in the last period of the middle ages.

Previous time scales for the Cenomanian-Turonian boundary (CTB) interval containing Oceanic Anoxic Event II (OAE II) vary by a factor of three. In this paper we present a new orbital time scale for the CTB stratotype established independently of radiometric, biostratigraphic, or geochemical data sets, update revisions of CTB biostratigraphic zonation, and provide a new detailed carbon isotopic record for the CTB study interval. The orbital time scale allows an independent assessment of basal biozone ages relative to the new CTB date of 93.55 Ma (GTSO4). The δ13Corg data document the abrupt onset of OAE II, significant variability in δ13Corg values, and values enriched to almost -22‰. These new data underscore the difficulty in defining OAE II termination. Using the new isotope curve and time scale, estimates of OAE II duration can be determined and exported to other sites based on integration of well-established chemostratigraphic and biostratigraphic datums. The new data will allow more accurate calculations of biogeochemical and paleobiologic rates across the CTB. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
