Abstract. In this paper we provide an overview of new knowledge on oxygen depletion (hypoxia) and related phenomena in aquatic systems resulting from the EU-FP7 project HYPOX ("In situ monitoring hypoxic ecosystems coastal open seas, landlocked water bodies", http://www.hypox.net). view anticipated loss due to eutrophication climate change, was set up improve capacities monitor hypoxia as well understand its causes consequences. Temporal dynamics spatial patterns were analyzed field studies...

Abstract The M essinian S alinity C risis is well known to have resulted from a significant drop of the editerranean sea level. Considering both onshore and offshore observations, subsequent reflooding generally thought been very sudden. We present here seismic evidence G ulf L ions re‐visited data I taly T urkey that lead new concept two‐step B asin after risis. refilling was first moderate relatively slow accompanied by transgressive ravinement, later on rapid, preserving subaerial E...

As part of the 2007 Marnaut cruise in Sea Marmara, an investigation pore fluid chemistry sites along Main Marmara Fault zone was conducted. The goal to define spatial relationship between active faults and outlets determine sources evolution fluids. Sites included basin bounding transtensional strike‐slip cutting through topographic highs. fluids are dominated by simple mixing bottom water with a brackish, low‐density Pleistocene Lake end‐member that is advecting buoyantly and/or diffusing...

Abstract Understanding of the evolution fluid‐fault interactions during earthquake cycles is a challenge that acoustic gas emission studies can contribute. A survey Sea Marmara using shipborne, multibeam echo sounder, with water column records, provided an accurate spatial distribution offshore seeps. Gas emissions are spatially controlled by combination factors, including fault and fracture networks in connection to Main Fault system inherited faults, nature thickness sediments (e.g.,...

[1] Sediments deposited under lacustrine and marine conditions in the Sea of Marmara hold a Late Quaternary record for water exchange between Black Mediterranean Sea. Here we report multiproxy data set based on oxygen strontium isotope results obtained from carbonate shells, major trace elements, specific organic biomarker measurements, as well micropaleontological study 14C-dated sediment core retrieved Marmara. Pronounced changes occurred δ18O 87Sr/86Sr values at fresh transition,...

Marine transform faults and associated fracture zones (MTFFZs) cover vast stretches of the ocean floor, where they play a key role in plate tectonics, accommodating lateral movement tectonic plates allowing connections between ridges trenches. Together with continental counterparts MTFFZs, these structures also pose risk to human societies as can generate high magnitude earthquakes trigger tsunamis. Historical examples are Sumatra-Wharton Basin Earthquake 2012 (M8.6) Atlantic Gloria Fault...

Reliable piercing points on both sides of the Sea Marmara enabled us to obtain an estimate slip‐rate over time scales 10–15 ka different fault strands North Anatolian Fault (NAF) system. We analyzed geomorphic features in gulfs Izmit, Gemlik (Sea Marmara) and Saros (NE Aegean Sea), which were passively displaced by NAF after their abandonment related post‐glacial sea level rise. Results for main northern strand, consistently similar pull‐apart, are order 10 mm/yr, about one half that...
