TURBIDITE PALEOSEISMOLOGY (and some other topics of interest) MARNAUT CRUISE MEETING January, 2007 Outline: Seismoturbidites as proxies of past earthquakes Monitoring of turbidity by a sediment trap Fluid vents and carbonate crusts Other possible monitoring studies and sensors

Sites of interest

Le Pichon et al. (2001) EPSL, 192: Turbidites as paleo-earthquake proxies in the deep Marmara basins Package 2 Package 1 ~40 m ~ % turbidite- homogenite and ~ % hemipelagic units

Core IZ-115 Karamürsel Basin, İzmit Gulf (1630±30 14 C yr BP)

Sediment trap Indented Rotating Sphere (IRS) Sediment Tarp Time series data on the amount and composition of sedimenting hemi- pelagic material, and sampling of possible seismoturbidites

Fluid vents Cold fuid venting, carbonate mound, bacterial mats and benthic fauna in SE Tekirdağ Basin R/V Le Atalante cruise, Marmarascarps project, Armijo et al. (2003)

Carbonate crusts as archives of the cyclic changes in the chemical composition of the fluids Mineralogy Isotopic composition

ITU-ISMAR-BO and INGV-Rome seafloor observatory project in the western Izmit Gulf Project proposal submitted to Istanbul City Council

Paolo Favali’s SN-4 (Submarine Network-4, Geostar) sea floor observatory system including the folling sensors: broad-band 3-component seismometer; hydrophone triaxial, single-point current meter; CTD (conductivity, temperature and depth) sensor CH 4 sensors (at least 2 in parallel) O 2 sensor

Other sensors to monitor fluid seepages and mass flows: 1.Time-lapse cameras with one or two pictures a week to monitor fluids, mass-flows bacterial growth, benthic fauna, etc. 2. Optical backscatter sensors (or turbidometers) to monitor water turbidity and sediment influx.
