A ‘filament’ event bed/level corresponds to the occurrence of thin elongate calcitic, shells, or plates of pelagic, bivalve or crinoidal, origin, within pelagic, laminated and organic-matter rich limestones. These organic-rich limestones had been generally deposited under hypoxic/anoxic conditions in an outer-ramp environment. These thin elongate, bivalve shells, or crinoidal plates, are found broken in small pieces, disintegrated, or simply preserved parallel to bedding as almost complete specimens. Such ‘filament’ beds were spotted in SE Turkey in deposits, namely the Karababa-A Member, around the Cenomanian-Turonian boundary (C/TB) and above. On a global scale, these filament event beds illustrate sea-level rise related to eustacy and/or climatic change. The abundance of filaments close to the C/TB is a biological marker of high organic productivity resulting from a climatic change to warmer conditions. The prevailing higher sea-level conditions were then favourable to the accumulation and preservation of organic-rich facies, characteristic of the Oceanic Anoxic Event 2 (OAE2). Using both biostratigraphic and carbon isotopic data, those deposits were dated from the latest Cenomanian-Turonian age. ‘Filament’ event beds were recorded in the same order, except for some small differences. A good number of these bio-events are global. Consequently, on a global scale, they are susceptible to constrain the C/TB, especially the base of the Turonian stage, with a significant degree of confidence.

Forearc carbon sink reduces long-term volatile recycling into the mantle Barry, P. H.; et. al. (2019-04-25) Carbon and other volatiles in the form of gases, fluids or mineral phases are transported from Earth's surface into the mantle at convergent margins, where the oceanic crust subducts beneath the continental crust. The efficiency of this transfer has profound implications for the nature and scale of geochemical heterogeneities in Earth's deep mantle and shallow crustal reservoirs, as well as Earth's oxidation state. However, the proportions of volatiles released from the forearc and backarc are not well cons...
MIXED-MODE HYGROTHERMAL FRACTURE ANALYSIS OF ORTHOTROPIC FUNCTIONALLY GRADED MATERIALS USING J-INTEGRAL TOPAL, SERRA; Dağ, Serkan (2014-06-27) Functionally graded materials (FGMs) are multi-phase inhomogeneous composites, possessing smooth spatial variations in certain physical properties of the constituents. Depending on the types of the constituent materials used in the processing of orthotropic FGMs, the influences of thermal and hygroscopic loadings could be rather significant. This study is directed towards developing a new computational fracture analysis technique for orthotropic FGMs that are under mixed-mode hygrothermal loading. The metho...
Long Wavelength Photosensitizers for Diaryliodonium Salts Based on the 2-Benzyl-2H-benzo[d][1,2,3]triazole Skeleton Bulut, Umut; Yilmaz, Seda; Yigitsoy, Basak; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Informa UK Limited, 2012-01-01) Two benzotriazole derivatives, 2-benzyl-4,7-di(thiophen-2-yl)-2H-benzo[d][1,2,3] triazole (BBTS) and 2-benzyl-4,7-bis(2,3-dihydrothieno[3,4-b][1,4] dioxin-5-yl)-2H-benzo[d] [1,2,3] triazole (BBTES) were employed as photosensitizers for diaryliodonium salt photoinitiators in photoinitiated cationic polymerization of various epoxide and vinyl ether monomers. Diphenyliodonium hexafluorophosphate (Ph2I+PF6-) salt was used as the photoinitiator in this study. Extended conjugation and electron-rich moieties of th...
ELASTIC COEFFICIENTS IN TLGA(S1-XSEX)2 AND TLINXGA1-XS2 LAYER MIXED-CRYSTALS BY BRILLOUIN-SCATTERING Hasanlı, Nızamı; ELLIALTIOGLU, S; LAIHO, R; BAKHYSHOV, AE (1993-12-01) The compositional variation of the elastic coefficients C-11 and C33 for TlGa(S1-xSex) and TlInxGa1-xS2 layer mixed crystals are discussed using Brillouin scattering measurements. Clear anomalies are observed for the longitudinal phonons propagating parallel to the (00 1) plane (elastic coefficient C-11) at x(c) congruent-to 0.8 and x(c) congruent-to 0.3 in TlInxGa1-xS2 and TlGa(S1-xSex)2, respectively. These anomalies are explained by the formation of infinite clusters. A considerable difference in the rat...
Shear and volumetric straining response of Çine sand Korkusuz, Ahmet Can; Çetin, Kemal Önder; Department of Civil Engineering (2021-1-19) The response of sandy soils under monotonic loading depends on size, shape and mineralogy of particles, fabric, stress and density states of mixtures. Researchers around the world have studied their local sands and calibrated their responses (e.g., Toyoura sand-Japan, Ottawa sand-Canada, Sacramento sand-US, Sydney sand-Australia, etc.). However, there are not many studies that have focused on regional sands from Turkey. This research study aims to introduce a local sand, Çine sand, to literature as a "stand...
