This study reviews the morphology, hydrodynamics and sedimentology of 33 modern straits, including examples from diverse tectonic and climatic settings. Strait morphology ranges …
Marine mucilage outbreaks occurred in the Sea of Marmara in 2021 which severely affected the marine ecosystem. The thick mucilage blankets with different colors became a public …
In this paper, we use the unstructured grid model SCHISM to simulate the thermohydrodynamics in a chain of baroclinic, interconnected basins. The model shows a …
We report the results of tephrochronological studies on marine cores from the eastern and western part of the Sea of Marmara extending back to early MIS-4. Glass shard compositions …
Chirp sub-bottom profiling, multibeam bathymetric mapping and a combination of faunal and isotopic analysis of molluscs and foraminifera in sediment cores on the northern shelf of the …
During the late glacial, marine isotope Stage 2, the Marmara Sea transformed into a brackish lake as global sea-level fell below the sill in the Dardanelles Strait. A record of the …
We present results of three simulations of the Mediterranean Sea climate: a hindcast, a historical run, and a RCP8. 5 scenario simulation reaching the year 2100. The simulations …
The core of Turkey's land is the Anatolian Peninsula, which is surrounded by several seas (Mediterranean, Aegean, Marmara and Black Sea). Offering a high variety of morphological …
Abstract The Strait of Gibraltar is a narrow and shallow channel that controls the Mediterranean Sea thermohaline and biogeochemical balances. Strong tidal currents …
