Nuclear analytical methods are very important atmospheric tools as they provide multielement data, which is essential for receptor modeling. In this study, the application of receptor modeling is discussed on rural data to determine source regions affecting chemical composition of aerosols in the Eastern Mediterranean. The factor analysis revealed 4 sources, two of which represent anthropogenic component in aerosol mass. The source regions that determine the composition of particles is investigated using trajectory statistics.

The Effects of type and amount of organically modified montmorillonites on thermal degradation behavior and mechanical properties of poly(lactic acid)
Özdemir, Esra; Hacaloğlu, Jale; Tinçer, Teoman; Department of Polymer Science and Technology (2014)
Biodegradable polymers have gained considerable interest as a consequence of significant environmental friendly properties like biocompatibility and ability to synthesis from renewable resources. Even though many biodegradable polymers present comparable properties with petrochemical polymers, there are still many technical barriers like poor thermal resistance, and/or mechanical properties. To overcome these drawbacks, generally, nano-sized materials are incorporated into the continuous matrix. Therefore, ...
Distinct patterns of sedimentary phosphorus fractionation and mobilization in the seafloor of the Black Sea, Marmara Sea and Mediterranean Sea
Akçay, İsmail; Yücel, Mustafa (2023-03-10)
Phosphorus (P) is a key element to all life that is used for structural and functional component of all organisms. The cycling of sedimentary P may differ depending on the redox-conditions of the overlying waters affecting the dynamics, and distribution of P-fractions and the elements that are highly coupled to P cycle. Though biogeochemistry of water column in the three interconnected marine basins of Black, Marmara and Mediterranean Seas have been studied extensively, few studies were carried out to under...
The Usage of Two Level Random Intercept Model Specifications in the Analysis of Achievement in Mathematics
Gökalp Yavuz, Fulya (2013-12-01)
Hierarchical models are highly useful tools for clustered and multilevel type of data and coefficients can vary by clusters in these models. In this study, several types of two-level random intercept model specifications are used to compare the mathematics scores of 8th grade students from three different safe and orderly levels of schools, after taking into account of variation both between classes and between students within the same class. The data obtained from Trends in International Mathematics and Sc...
The use of non-parametric tests between subsamples and particle population for the assessment of minimum number of particles in microscopic analysis
Camalan, Mahmut (Informa UK Limited, 2020-08-01)
The use of small and reliable samples in a microscopic analysis can decrease the time to estimate the particle size and mineral grade distributions in a population of particles. This paper attempts to assess the minimum reliable sample size for the above-mentioned distributions, by implementing non-parametric tests on the subsamples taken from a specific population of 2800 particles. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests show that the subsamples which contain more than 800 particles (29% of the population) cannot gi...
The Karyote® Physico-Chemical Genomic, Proteomic, Metabolic Cell Modeling System
Ortoleva, P.; Berry, E.; Brun, Y.; Fan, J.; Fontus, M.; Hubbard, K.; Jaqaman, K.; Jarymowycz, L.; Navid, A.; Sayyed-Ahmad, A.; Shreif, Z.; Stanley, F.; Tuncay, Kağan; Weitzke, E.; Wu, L.-C. (Mary Ann Liebert Inc, 2003-01-01)
Modeling approaches to the dynamics of a living cell are presented that are strongly based on its underlying physical and chemical processes and its hierarchical spatio-temporal organization. Through the inclusion of a broad spectrum of processes and a rigorous analysis of the multiple scale nature of cellular dynamics, we are attempting to advance cell modeling and its applications. The presentation focuses on our cell modeling system, which integrates data archiving and quantitative physico-chemical model...
