The Role of Climate Elements on Bee Distribution in Rwandz District
Zryan Shekha Ahmed, Fatima Qadir Mustafa
Climate is one of the most important geographical factors that directly and indirectly affects the activities of bees, honey production and the distribution of bees in Rwandz district. Bees thrive in good weather conditions. The higher the actual sunny hours, the better for bees as the bees work during the day, so in the study area, spring and summer, which are the growing seasons for bees, are fairly encouraging for bees to work. Temperature has a huge impact on bees, so as the temperature drops and the temperature rises, it has the effect of reducing laying eggs by the queen bee, and the worker bees expend a lot of energy to heat and cool the inside of the beehive. The low temperature in winter and the summer season due to the high temperatures bring the activity and work of the bees to a certain extent, the amount of humidity at the end of the winter season damages the beehives and hives, especially in closed boxes and crowded bees. Precipitation affects the growth of plants that are the food source of bees, flowers and plants. Precipitation has a negative effect, especially during the period of rainfall for several days in a row during the bees working season, when the natural nectar is washed away and the bees are unable to work and raise the larva. The bees often die of starvation, but in general, it does not have a negative effect on the bees. There are 192 beekeepers in the study area and the number of beehives reaches 6192 that are distributed in 29 different places and their total honey production reaches 51579.36 kg, which has a high economic value for beekeepers.

Hemn Hussen Mohammed, Hemn Hussein Ismael, Shapol Bahmen Rashid
Cartographic representation is essential for each field of geography science, but representation of elements of climate is more important; therefore, we cannot see some climate elements, but we can feel them. We can see and determine the spatial differences for all elements of the climate on the map and in the cartographical representation. Also, this study is important because cartography and maps are essential for illustrating climate conditions in the study area. To reach an accurate result in our research, we relied on the representation elements of climate in the study area, as well as the use of an analysis method and use (ArcGIS) for representation, and created maps in the Dukan district. In the end, we have reached some results; that is, some of them are: the best way to represent and create maps for elements of climate is to use equal lines, like drawing isobars, isotherms, isohyets, and colour hierarchy. In conclusion, we reach that there are significant differences between winter and summer months in all climate elements in the study region, but the differences between spring and autumn months are smaller and more moderate in all climate elements.
Volume 11 · Issue 1 · February 2024The Climate elements impact upon the expansion the stages morphology of Akre city
Omar Abdul Samih Mohammed, Sana Abdul Baqy Baker
The aim this paper is to determine the climate elements factors such as sunlight, temperature, wind, rain and humidity impact on the stages of morphology in Akre and the development and expansion of this city under the influence of climate. The parts of the city, and the climate elements have played a significant role in the formation of morphology in Aker, and the characteristics of the climate have a direct and positive relationship with the planning and stages of morphology in Akre, and some parts of Akre, and Suitable for the climatic situation of the place. The study also includes a field visit to receive more and analyze the composition of Akre, the research consists of the first topic expansion in morphology of Akre, the second topic of the current structure and the future of the city, and the third topic climate elements impact on the morphology of akre, with some conclusion and suggestion.
