**Preface**

The organizing committee warmly welcomes our distinguished delegates and guests to the 2012 International Conference on Applied Life Sciences (ICALS 2012) held on September, 10-12, 2012 in Konya, Turkey. ICALS 2012 is organized by International Society for Applied Life Sciences (ISALS), and supported by ISALS Members and scholars from universities and institutes all around the world. The conference Program Committee is truly international, with membership from the Americas, Europe, Asia, Africa and Oceania. The main conference themes and tracks are Environment, Biology and Agriculture. The major goal of this event is to provide international scientific forums for exchange of new ideas in life sciences through discussions with international peers. This proceeding records the fully refereed papers presented at the conference. The conference has gathered technical research submissions related to all aspects of main conference themes. All the submitted papers in the proceeding have been peer reviewed by the reviewers drawn from the scientific committee, external reviewers and editorial board depending on the subject matter of the paper. After the careful peer-review process, the submitted papers were selected on the basis of novelty, importance, and transparency for the purpose of the conference. The selected papers and additional late-breaking contributions to be presented as lectures will make an exciting technical program. The conference will therefore be a unique event, where attendees will be able to appreciate the latest results in their field of expertise, and to attain additional knowledge in other fields. We hope that all participants and other interested readers

benefit scientifically from the proceedings and also find it motivating in the process.

With the best regards,

Recently environmental problems are increasing all over the world with increasing population and industrialisation which is the increasing human requirements. In the same way, there are many environmental problems in the Konya Closed Basin, such as scarcity of water supplies in the region for realization of the unplanned agricultural production with related irrigations, since water storage difficulties owing to geologic and topographic characteristics of the area and drainage problems of irrigated agricultural areas. Climatic conditions are shaped large flat steppe areas in Konya basin. There will be important water shortage problems in the basin and irrigation water demand should be planned. Water losses should be kept to a minimum so that the amount of water obtained from underground water resources can be reduced and eventually the possible biological and ecological adverse impacts of the project will decrease and the diversity of species of flora and fauna will be preserved and endemic species will be protected. With this investigation, we aimed to put forward source of problems come from the future, appeared recently and continue in the future. Our effort may help to reduce critical problem or save our environment

Turkey straddles Europe and Asia with an area of 779,452 km2, across the Marmara Sea with Istanbul and Canakkale Straits. Turkey's border is on the northwest by Bulgaria and Greece, on the east by Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan and Iran, and on the south by Iraq and Syria (Figure 1). Turkey's 8,333 km coastline extends along the Black Sea, the Marmara Sea, the Aegean and the Mediterranean Sea. Turkey is one of the fortunate countries in which all four seasons and various climate types are present. Large plains, highlands, mountains and deep valleys mainly characterize its geography. Turkey lies between the temperate zone and the sub-tropical zone. These peculiarities are causing different seasons to be lived at the same time, over the different climatic regions of the country. Turkey divides into five basic climate regions: Mediterranean Climate, Black Sea Climate, Semi-humid Marmara Climate, Steppe Climate and Continental Eastern Ana-
