Abstract The Caspian Sea, the largest land–locked water body worldwide, has undergone
water level changes much larger than that of the oceans and within decades only. In this …

Historical literature may constitute a valuable source of information to reconstruct sea-level
changes. Here, historical documents and geological records have been combined to …

Abstract The Caspian Sea (CS), located between Europe and Asia, is the largest lake in the
world; however, its physical environment and its floor have oceanic characteristics. The CS …

Despite spiral eddies were first seen on the sea surface more than 40years ago, there is still
a lot of uncertainty concerning these eddies. The present paper is aimed to provide the …

Magnetic fabric (MF) investigations complemented by geochemical and grain surface
analyses of the understudied and controversial marine isotope stage (MIS) 5 b, 4 and 3 …

Microplastic pollution is a growing, yet poorly understood problem. Here, we assessed the
relationship between microplastic concentration and distance to rivers, shorelines, cities …

In this study, sea surface wind speed was investigated over the Caspian Sea. To do this, the
accuracy of sea surface wind speed was evaluated using the Advanced Scatterometer …

Located in the mid-latitudes, the Caspian Sea is the largest enclosed basin in the world. A
fully-coupled atmosphere-ocean-wave model of the Caspian Sea at high resolution (8 km) …

During the past three decades, the Caspian Sea (CS) ecosystem has undergone striking
changes due to anthropogenic activities, particularly following the invasion of comb jelly …

To improve our understanding of the Caspian Sea hydrodynamics, its circulation is
simulated with special focus on wind-driven currents of its southern basin. The …
