The Earth's mantle is known to be heterogeneous at different scales, which has been generally linked to the presence of diverse mantle reservoirs, some of which are believed to have remained isolated for long periods of time. When oceanic island basalts (OIBs) are subdivided into five distinct end-member groups on the basis of Sr-Nd-Pb isotope systematics, which include DM, EM1, EM2, HIMU and C, trace element systematics do not appear to be effective discriminators as isotopes, though an end-member signature may become dominant relative to others within a specific ratio range. Melting of a lithologically heterogeneous source or melting of distinct sources, which is followed by melt mixing, appears to be an important mechanism in creating variable geochemical signatures in OIB genesis. Ratio-based trace element modeling suggests that sole involvement of eclogitic components cannot explain the entire elemental variation observed in OIBs; a peridotitic component must have been involved in the genesis of all types of end-member signatures. Combined trace element and isotope systematics are consistent with the involvement of metasomatized oceanic lithosphere (crust + lithospheric mantle) with/without sediments. This mechanism, which involves slab components uprising within the plumes, may also have been the main reason causing the geochemical diversity in the Tethyan mantle.

Trace element and Sr-Nd-Hf-Pb isotopic constraints on the composition and evolution of eastern Anatolian sub-lithospheric mantle
Aktag, Alican; Sayıt, Kaan; Peters, Bradley J.; Furman, Tanya; Rickli, Jorg (2022-11-01)
Quaternary Elazig mafic alkaline volcanism is part of the anorogenic volcanic system of the circum-Mediterranean region, and it provides crucial insights into the chemical nature of the mantle source domains beneath eastern Turkey. Elemental and isotope geochemistry reveals that these mafic lithologies are mainly free of crustal contamination, reflecting geochemical signatures inherited from partial melting of their mantle sources. The trace element and Sr-Nd-Hf-Pb isotope systematics of the most primitive ...
Epicontinental seas as efficient carbon sinks: proto-Paratethys & West Siberian seas during the PETM
Kaya, Mustafa Yücel; Dupont‐Nivet, G; Frieling, Joost; Fioroni, C; Rohrmann, A; Altıner, Sevinç; Vardar, Ezgi; Plesse, Birgit; Mamtimin, Mehmut; Zhaojie, Guo (2020-05-04)
Removal of carbon on geological timescales is generally assumed to be governed by the relative strength of silicate weathering and organic carbon burial. For past transient warming phases organic carbon burial has been considered as a relevant negative feedback, but it remains uncertain how this compares to present-day anthropogenic emissions. The ocean is very effective at organic carbon remineralization and, only certain regions bury significant amounts of organic carbon. Organic carbon burial hotspots in...
Basement structure and architecture of the Black Sea Basin
Kaymakcı, Nuretdin; Horn, Brian (null; 2018-01-28)
Black Sea consists of two separate back arc basins which opened at different times during the Cretaceous in response to northward subduction of the Neo-Tethys Ocean. The paucity of well data, complex geometries and seismic imaging challenges mean that questions remain regarding the basement architecture though most authors accept that, at least in part, both these basins are floored by oceanic crust, even though there are no magnetic stripes. Interpretation of deep, long offset seismic data (imaging to more...
Trace metal composition of particulate matter of the Danube River and Turkish rivers draining into the Black Sea
Yigiterhan, Oguz; Murray, James W. (2008-08-16)
We determined the composition of particles from several rivers entering the Black Sea as part of a broader study of the composition of suspended matter and sediments in the Black Sea. Suspended matter and surface sediment samples were collected from the Danube River draining from Europe and from four Turkish rivers (Sakarya, Yenice (Filyos), Kizilirmak and Yesilirmak Rivers) in Anatolia. All samples were digested and analyzed by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry and atomic absorption spectrometry...
Assessment of discrimination of mafic rocks using trace element systematics with machine learning
Öztürk, Mehmet Sinan; Sayıt, Kaan; Department of Geological Engineering (2019)
Having an important role in the elucidation of the evolution of ancient oceans and related continental fragments, the determination of original tectonic settings of ancient igneous rocks is an essential part of the geodynamic inferences. Geochemical classification of mafic rocks is important for the tectono-magmatic discrimination of igneous rocks especially when geological information is insufficient as the link of the igneous rocks to their original tectonic setting had been erased due to large scale even...
