Sensitivity to global change in temperate Euro-Asian seas (the Mediterranea, Black Sea and Caspian Sea): A review

1998-03-27
Ozsoy, E
Common features of the three relatively isolated Euro-Asian Seas are reviewed to evaluate their sensitivity to climatic or anthropogenic change. The projection of the effects of Global Change occur through physical linkages, mediated by global, basin-scale and meso-scale processes, which need to be better unterstood for better forecasts, Prominent inter annual / interdecadal signals and large scale controls are evident, anti in some cases the changes are of a magnitude detected for the first time in the history of modern observations.

ANALYSES OF ECOSYSTEM-PRIMARY PRODUCTION INTERACTIONS IN THE NORTHERN LEVANTINE BASIN
Yilmaz, Elif; Salihoğlu, Barış; Department of Oceanography (2016-10-12)
Three areas of different ecosystem characteristics in the Northern Levantine Basin is compared using a 1-D multicomponent lower trophic level ecosystem model developed by SALIHOĞLU, B. et al. (2009) (NAGEM). Main focus was to analyze and compare the carrying capacity (PP) and regulatory mechanisms of the nutrients on lower trophic levels. 26 years’ of historical data obtained from METU-IMS data inventory and CORIOLIS was used to form a climatology, to introduce boundary conditions to the model as well as to...
Climate variability and deep water mass characteristics in the Aegean Sea
Georgiou, S.; Mantziafou, A.; Sofianos, S.; Gertman, I.; Ozsoy, E.; Somot, S.; Vervatis, V. (2015-01-15)
The main objective of this study is to investigate the variability of the thermohaline characteristics of the deep-water masses in the Aegean Sea and the possible impact of the regional atmospheric forcing variability by analyzing the available oceanographic and atmospheric datasets for the period of 1960-2012. During this period the variability of the deep water characteristics of the Aegean sub-basins is found to be very large as well as the diversity of the deep water characteristics among the sub-basins...
Energy-based top-down and bottom-up relationships between fish community energy demand or production and phytoplankton across lakes at a continental scale
Bartrons, Mireia; Mehner, Thomas; Argillier, Christine; Beklioğlu, Meryem; Blabolil, Petr; Hesthagen, Trygve; Sweden, Kerstin Holmgren; Jeppesen, Erik; Krause, Teet; Podgornik, Samo; Volta, Pietro; Winfield, Ian J.; Brucet, Sandra (Wiley, 2020-04-01)
Fish community feeding and production rates may differ between lakes despite similar fish biomass levels because of differences in size structure and local temperature. Therefore, across-lake comparisons of the strength and direction of top-down and bottom-up fish-phytoplankton relationships should consider these factors. We used the metabolic theory of ecology to calculate size- and temperature-corrected community energy demand (CEDom) and community production (CP) of omnivorous fishes in 227 European lake...
Changes of Eutrofication Indicator Parameters (TP, DIN, Chl-a and TRIX) in the Cilician Basin (Northeast Mediterranean)
TUĞRUL, SÜLEYMAN; Uysal, Zahit; Erdogan, Emine; Yucel, Nebil (2011-01-01)
Eutrophication processes and changes in coastal ecosystem are determined by the coastal/open sea interactions and rates of nutrient pollution. The Cilician Basin shelf waters are affected not only by intense industrial activities and increased population, but also by complex atmosphere-sea-land interactions. There is a recognizable difference between water qualities of Mersin bay coastal and the Cilician open waters depleted in nutrients. Eutrophic conditions have developed in the eastern bay shallow waters...
Effect of watershed partitioning on hydrologic parameters and estimation of hydrograph of an ungauged basin: a case study in Gokirmak and Kocanaz, Turkey
Kocyigit, Musteyde Baduna; Akay, Huseyin; Yanmaz, Ali Melih (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2017-08-01)
The main goal of this study is to investigate the effect of the size of the subbasins of a watershed on the hydrologic parameters and their spatial variability in an estimation of the hydrologic parameters and hydrograph of a neighbouring ungauged basin. In this paper, Hydrologic Engineering Center-Hydrologic Modelling System (HEC-HMS), a semi-distributed hydrologic model, is used to calibrate and cross-validate two flood events occurred in 1998 and then validate four other flood events occurred in 1991, 19...
