The E-W oriented Sivas foreland basin in Turkey recorded a salinity crisis during the Late Eocene resulting evaporite accumulations thick enough to trigger intense halokinesis Oligo-Miocene. is studied thanks three sedimentological sections crossing transition from last marine deposits (Bözbel Formation) overlying evaporitic facies (Tuzhisar preserved halokinetic deformations. top of Bözbel For...

We study two reservation deposit policies for a service rm to increase its revenue through higher capacity utilization. First, under the no deposit policy, the rm requires no reservation deposit and imposes no no show penalty. Anticipating potential no shows, a rm may overbook; hence, there is no guarantee that the reserved service will be provided under the no deposit policy. On the contrary, ...

Many of the minerals observed or inferred to occur in the sediments and sedimentary rocks of Mars, from a variety of Mars-mission spacecraft data, also occur in Martian meteorites. Even Martian meteorites recovered after some exposure to terrestrial weathering can preserve preterrestrial evaporite minerals and useful information about aqueous alteration on Mars, but the textures and textural co...

Evaporite calcitization within the Castile Formation of the Delaware Basin is more widespread and diverse than originally recognized. Coupled field and GIS studies have identified more than 1000 individual occurrences of calcitization within the Castile Formation outcrop area, which includes both calcitized masses (limestone buttes) and laterally extensive calcitized horizons (limestone sheets)...

The goal of this paper is to improve our understanding of the costs and benefits of explicit deposit insurance. To this end, we compare the opportunity-cost value of deposit insurance services for a large sample of banks drawn from countries with or without explicit deposit insurance. After correcting for certain bankand country-specific factors, we find that the existence of explicit deposit i...
