Lake Van deep drilling project PALEOVAN

A complete succession of the lacustrine sediment sequence deposited during the last ∼600,000 years in Lake Van, Eastern Anatolia (Turkey) was drilled in 2010 supported by the International Continental Scientific Drilling Program (ICDP). Based on a detailed seismic site survey, two sites at a water depth of up to 360 m were drilled in summer 2010, and cores were retrieved from sub-lake-floor depths of 140 m (Northern Basin) and 220 m (Ahlat Ridge). To obtain a complete sedimentary section, the two sites were multiple cored in order to investigate the paleoclimate history of a sensitive semi-arid region between the Black, Caspian, and Mediterranean seas. This introductory paper provides background information of the deep drilling project and an overview of the studies presented in this special volume by the PALEOVAN science team dealing with chronology, paleomagnetism, paleoenvironmental proxies, geophysical and petrophysical investigations as well as pore-water and fluid transport.

Neurotologic and functional MRI findings in a patient with bilateral profound deafness having Brown-Vialetto-Van Leare syndrome

INTRODUCTION We report the first findings of functional magnetic resonance imaging of the auditory cortex in a young woman with a bilateral cochleovestibular deficit as first manifestation of Brown-Vialetto-Van Leare syndrome. The patient had no open speech discrimination, even with hearing aids, and is depending on lip reading for communication. METHODS To evaluate the possible efficiency of a cochlear implantation, we investigated hemodynamic responses within the central auditory pathways using an auditory functional magnetic resonance imaging paradigm. RESULTS Blood oxygen level-dependent correlates were detected bilaterally along the auditory pathways after exposure to intermittent clicking tone stimulation at 2 kHz. CONCLUSION These results suggest integrity of the central auditory pathways and represent a positive argument to propose a cochlear implantation with the aim to restore hearing.
