(Frontiers Media S. A, 2017)
The impact of viral lysis and grazing by flagellates on bacterioplankton production was assessed during a mesocosm experiment in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea, in response to Saharan dust (SD) vs. mixed aerosols (A) addition. ...
Selection of the Dredged Material Disposal Sites in the Turkish Coastal Areas
(Mediterranean Coastal Foundation, 2015)
Approximately 5x10(6) cubic meter of sediment is removed annually from the harbours, ports, marinas and river mouths in Turkey. Uncontrolled dumping of these dredged materials might create contamination based on the ...
The Asi River's Estimated Nutrient Load and Effects on the Eastern Mediterranean
(Istanbul Universty Press, 2018)
