    Beachrock formation on the coast of Gokceada Island and its relation to the active tectonics of the region, northern Aegean Sea, Turkey

    There are beachrock formations in 5 different sections of the south coast of Gokceada, Turkey's largest Aegean island. These beachrocks form two different groups in terms of layering characteristics, delta O-18 and delta C-13 stable isotope compositions, consecutive cementation structures, and C-14 dating. The West Group beachrocks, to the west, were dated to 4010-5830 BP, while the East Group beachrocks were dated to 620-2390 BP. The beachrock formations in both groups are separated by the NE-SW-trending Ugurlu Fault. The Ugurlu Fault is a right lateral, strike slip with reverse component oblique fault, and is an active fault within the North Anatolian Fault Zone. In the period between the formation of the two beachrock groups (2390-4010 BP), an earthquake was responsible for the destruction of Gokceada Yenibademli mound and the development of two generations of beachrock.

    Role of lithological properties on development of badlands in arid regions.

    In this study we compared materials from less investigated badland sites in Turkey and China. Critical composition in badland material is the presence and ratio of the clay and silt size particles, clay mineralogy and presence of mobile ions, especially anions. In analyzed materials the presence of smectite governed the formation of surface crust. Surface cracks enabled ion leaching and became preferential paths from sediment movement. Critical composition in badland material is the presence and ratio of the clay and silt size particles and poor sorting. Sulphate and carbonate ions proved to be crucial for surface processes on these materials. Summarizing results it can be concluded that erodibility of badland lithologies is a combination of clay type, silt content and ion concentration

    Eolianite and coquinite as evidence of MIS 6 and 5, NW Black Sea coast, Turkey

    Get PDF
    This paper discusses the implications of a lowstand carbonate eolianite and overlying transgressive sequence of coquinite at Sile on the Turkish Black Sea coast based on composition, depositional characteristics and optical age estimations. The cross-bedded eolianite is a mixed ooid quartz grainstone in composition, yielding a depositional age matching MIS 6. It formed at the backshore of the paleobeach with the supply of sediment the from the beach face and offering insights into the drift of mixed shallow marine carbonates and siliciclastics together with radial ooids by onshore winds from a subaerially exposed high- to low-energy ooid shoals and oolitic sand complexes which developed parallel to the shoreline on the shallow shelf margin. During this lowstand, a low-relief dune retaining a record of opposing paleowind directions than that of prevalent northeasterly winds of today appears to have been lithified to form dune rock (aeolinite) under drier conditions compared to the present. Coinciding with MIS 5e, shallow marine coquina beds resting unconformably on the eolianite indicate the occurrence of the Mediterranean transgression during the last interglacial, as confirmed by benthic foraminifera within the high-salinity tolerant coquina shells.
