Approximately 350-km-line high-resolution seismic data were acquired to understand the active tectonic setting of the inner side of the gulf.

This study focuses on the determination of the near-surface tectonic features in the eastern part of the Gulf of Saros, a highly active seismic region within the North Anatolian Fault Zone. Also the soft grounds with the higher water contents produced the more settlement of the stabilized soil layer and the more heaving and lateral flow of the soft grounds. The test results showed that the load-carrying capacity of the improved grounds was increased with curing time of the cement-stabilized soil layer. model tests in laboratory was performed to investigate the behavior of the soft grounds with cement-stabilized surface layer The load-deformation behavior illustrated the load-carrying capacity of the cement-stabilized layer and the deformation properties of the soft grounds such as settlement. The surface layer in dredged and reclaimed soft ground is improved by mixing of the soft soils and hardening agent, which is made of cement with some other special admixtures. In recent, there are several attempts to use a lot of dredged and reclaimed soft grounds in both western and southern coasts in Korean Peninsula for various purposes by improving the properties of the soils. So we can recognize Hodgson (1853) as a valuable historical record on the Lyuzu dialect spoken in Sichuan province. Up to 72% of the words corresponded exactly to each other, and some additional cognates were found in the other dialect collected in A Tibeto-Burman Lexicon (1853) by Prof. As a result, we found the features of the word data in Hodgson (1853) are very close to the Lyuzu Naiqu dialect that I collected. In this paper I tried to identify the 186 words described by Hodgson (1853), one of the records by western scholars mentioned above, referring to field data collected by Prof. been spoken in the southern part of the Mu-nya district in Sichuan, China. They collected tens of words under the name of 'Manyak' and 'Menia' languages, but I found that in fact these lists were not records of the Mu nya language, but actually documented the Lyuzu language which has. We have two historical records on Lyuzu language, belonging to the Qiangic branch of the Tibeto Burman languages, made by western scholars who explored southwest China in the 19th century. Andrew Smith was a true pioneer of South African zoology. At least 257 specific names are still in current use for mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians and fishes. However, he is known to be the first author of 76 generic names (67 available, 9 unavailable) and 558 specific names (460 available and 98 unavailable). Some of the new names are now considered unavailable for purposes of zoological nomenclature, due to incorrect spellings, names without proper descriptions or emendations.

The name Accipiter selbyii A.Smith, 1829 was rediscovered. In these works, he described many new species. It is found that he was the author of 142 works between 18. The bibliography of all works authored by Smith is reconstructed here in detail, including for the first time items published in the Kaapstads Courant en Afrikaansche Berigter. After his return to England in 1836, he exhibited animals found during his expeditions and he started to publish the Illustrations of the Zoology of South Africa, which appeared in 28 parts between 18 and was splendidly illustrated by George Henry Ford. His early work was published in rare and obscure journals printed in Cape Town, like the Cape Town Gazette and African Advertiser, the South African Commercial Advertiser and the South African Quarterly Journal. He visited some interior parts of the country, especially as commander of the Expedition for Exploring Central Africa in 1834–1836. The army surgeon Andrew Smith studied South African fauna when he was the first Superintendent of the South African Museum in Cape Town.
