D-arabinitol is a sugar alcohol that is a typical metabolite of Candida species. The hydroxy group owned by D-arabinitol can function as a reducing agent that can reduce Ag+ to AgNPs. The resulting colloid is further stabilized by the addition of a capping agent. The capping agent used in this study was a combination of chitosan 1%(w/w) and PEG 6000 1% (w/w) (2:1) v/v. The formation of AgNPs causes an increase in the surface plasmon resonance spectra of the colloid solution at a wavelength of 430 nm with a slight blue shift. At the same time, the color of …

The large-scale production and injection of geothermal fluids induce pressure, volume, and temperature gradient changes in the subsurface, which may result in surface deformation as well. Interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) is a promising utility for monitoring ground surface deformation and inferring subsurface reservoir operations that are difficult to observe directly. This study provides the first wide-area InSAR-derived long-term ground deformation across major geothermal fields in western Turkey. It aims to identify ground deformation hotspots within the geothermal exploitation sites and analyze their relationship with energy production and pumping.

Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences
The southwestern edge of the Saghro Massif experienced during the Ediacaran period an intense volcanic activity represented by basaltic andesites and acid rocks with ignimbritic dominance. The chemical characteristics of these rocks correspond to those of calc-alkaline orogenic magmatism related to a subduction zone. The genesis of these two rock groups does not seem to be controlled by the fractional crystallization process as a factor controlling their evolution. Partial melting of a lithospheric mantle still influenced by the Pan-African orogeny and a contaminated constituent of the lower continental crust is a likely source of the basaltic andesites.

The Nakamura method, known as horizontal to vertical spectral ratio (HVSR), has been used to analyze site effect assessment. Over the past decade, various HVSR curve inversion methods for near-surface geophysical surveys have been developed. Particle swarm optimization (PSO) inversion method has been applied to solve the HVSR inversion curve to estimate the shear wave velocity (Vs) value towards the depth. In this study, the HVSR curve inversion experiment has been applied with two synthetic data: noise-free data and the other is contaminated by 10% random noise. This research aims to find out how the PSO algorithm performs to find …
