A new durability assessment method of the tuffs used in some historical buildings of Cappadocia (Turkey) Deniz, B. Ertas; Topal, Tamer (2021-04-01) Cappadocia region in Turkey is known as a touristic and historical area with volcanic rocks formed by the effect of intense Neogene calcalkaline volcanism. Rhyolitic to trachyandesitic tuffs, being widespread as a volcanic...
Assessment of the effectiveness of a rockfall ditch through 3-D probabilistic rockfall simulations and automated image processing AKIN, MUTLUHAN; DİNÇER, İSMAİL; OK, ALİ ÖZGÜN; ORHAN, AHMET; AKIN, MÜGE; Topal, Tamer (2021-03-01) Rockfall ditches or catchment areas aim to collect falling blocks at the toe of a source zone by dissipating the energy of blocks in an excavated trench. The effectiveness of a rockfall ditch is simply expressed by its blo...

The plate bounda...
Implications of giant ooids for the carbonate chemistry of Early Triassic seawater Li, Xiaowei; Trower, Elizabeth J.; Lehrmann, Daniel J.; Minzoni, Marcello; Kelley, Brian M.; Schaal, Ellen K.; Altıner, Demir; Yu, Meiyi; Payne, Jonathan L. (2021-02-01) Lower Triassic limestones contain giant ooids (>2 mm) along with other precipitated carbonate textures more typical of Precambrian strata. These features appear to have resulted from changes in seawater chemistry associate...
