This paper consists of two parts. The first is theoretical and extends Elsasser's theory of stress propagation in the upper mantle to an asthenosphere with nonlinear heology. Exact solutions of the nonlinear equations are found for two geologically important problems. The second part uses these theoretical results as the basis for a measurement of the rheology of the asthenosphere. The seaward ...

Science needs modality. Science is about finding out what the world is like and what there is but it is also about finding out what the world could be like ancl what there might be. While this may be controversial when taken as a metaphysically loaded claim about some ultimate picture of reality, it is just a simple descriptive truth when one takes actually practiced science into account. That ...

Çalışma, 2010-2011 yılları arasında Kahramanmaraş il merkezi (Dulkadiroğlu, Onikişubat), Göksun, Türkoğlu ve Pazarcık ilçelerinde zeytin, elma fıstık bahçelerinde bulunan Coccoidea üst familyasına (Hemiptera: Sternorryncha) ait türlerin saptanması için yürütülmüştür. Survey çalışmalarında, 3 familyadan 12 tür tespit edilmiştir. Bu türler; Aulacaspis rosae (Bouché), Filippia follicularis (Targio...

Resistance responses in the leaves of eight rose genotypes, Knock Out (highly resistant), Arka Nishkant (moderately R. multiflora susceptible), Swadesh IIHRR 13-4 (susceptible), Parimala indica (susceptible) and 4-15-12 exhibiting varied levels resistance against black spot were investigated post artificial inoculation with pathogen, Diplocarpon rosae. There was consistent increase activities d...
