A preliminary study on the growth of the octopus Octopus vulgaris (Cuvier, 1797)

1993-01-01
A new methodology, seasonally oscillating von Bertalanffy growth model, was applied to Octopus vulgaris collected from the W Gulf of Izmir. Paying additional effort to length-weight relationship of this species, its growth was investigated.

Stable isotope evidence for meter-scale sea level changes in Lower Cretaceous inner platform and pelagic carbonate successions of Turkey
Yılmaz, İsmail Ömer; Altıner, Demir (2004-02-01)
In this study, stable C and O isotope compositions of bulk rock samples from Barremian-Aptian platform carbonates of the Taurides, the Pontides, and of their pelagic counterparts of the Sakarya continent in Turkey were measured for the first time. Platform carbonates and pelagic successions including a prominent black shale interval are composed of distinct sedimentary cycles in the form of meter-scale shallowing-upward sequences and limestone-marl/ shale couplets, respectively. The biostratigraphy and the ...
An investigation into the combustion curves of lignites
Kök, Mustafa Verşan (2001-01-01)
In this research, combustion curves of seventeen lignite samples from the Thrace basin (Turkey) were analysed using thermal analysis (TG/DTG) techniques. A comparative analysis was performed considering the relationship between peak temperature, burn-out temperature, moisture content, ash, volatile matter, fixed carbon and calorific values of the samples studied and the results are discussed.
An indicator-based evaluation of Black Sea food web dynamics during 1960-2000
Akoğlu, Ekin; Salihoğlu, Barış; SOLİDORO, Cosimo (2014-06-01)
Four Ecopath mass-balance models were implemented for evaluating the structure and function of the Black Sea ecosystem using several ecological indicators during four distinctive periods (1960s, 1980-1987,1988-1994 and 1995-2000). The results exemplify how the Black Sea ecosystem structure started to change after the 1960s as a result of a series of trophic transformations, i.e., shifts in the energy flow pathways through the food web. These transformations were initiated by anthropogenic factors, such as e...
A comparative genetic analysis of the subterranean termite genus Reticulitermes (Isoptera : Rhinotermitidae)
Austin, JW; Szalanski, AL; Uva, P; Bagneres, AG; Kence, Aykut (Oxford University Press (OUP), 2002-11-01)
DNA sequencing analysis of the mitochondrial DNA cytochrome oxidase H (COII) region was used to examine genetic variation in the termite genus Reticulitermes Holmgren. We examined 21 species and subspecies from three continents. Sequencing of a 677-bp region of a 780-bp amplicon from 41 individuals and from 17 sequences obtained from GenBank revealed 221 polymorphic sites within the genus. Tajima-Nei distances from species ranged from 0.9 to 12.7%, and parsimony and maximum likelihood analysis revealed seve...
Repeated reactivation of clogged permeable pathways in epithermal gold deposits: Kestanelik epithermal vein system, NW Turkey
Gulyuz, Nilay; Shipton, Zoe K.; KUŞCU, İLKAY; Lord, Richard A.; Kaymakcı, Nuretdin; Gülyüz, Erhan; Gladwell, David R. (2018-05-01)
This study presents a detailed study of the dimensions, geometry, textures and breccias of a well-exposed epithermal vein system, the Kestanelik gold deposit in the Biga Peninsula, NW Turkey, and investigates the permeability enhancement mechanisms in epithermal gold deposits. Here mineralization is associated with quartz veins up to 13.6 m thick. Vein textures and breccia components indicate repeated sealing and subsequent brecciation of wall rock and pre-existing vein infill. Field and petrographic analys...
