Aksu's research program has two main focuses: the Pleistocene-Holocene evolution of the Marmara Sea Gateway and Miocene-Recent tectonic and sedimentary evolution of the eastern Mediterranean. During the next DG cycle Aksu will co-supervise 14 existing and 9 new HQP. The study identified as "the Pleistocene-Holocene evolution of the Marmara Sea Gateway" aims to delineate the water-mass history of the Black Sea, and its communication with the eastern Mediterranean Sea, using high resolution seismic reflection profiles, multibeam mosaics and multiproxy data in cores. Six existing HQP will continue work on various aspects of the paleoceanography of the Black Sea, Marmara Sea and the Aegean Sea. In 2011, 1013 and 2015, Aksu and collaborator Richard Hiscott will carry out three cruises to collect additional sedimentary and geophysical data from the gateway. These data will form the basis for four new HQP to be co-supervised by Aksu and Hiscott. The study identified as "the Miocene-Recent tectonic and sedimentary evolution of the eastern Mediterranean" aims to determine and map the areal distribution of strain through time, and its degree of partitioning among compression, horizontal shear and extension, across the complicated junction between the Hellenic and Cyprus Arcs, using multichannel seismic reflection profiles. Seven existing HQP will continue work on the Miocene to Recent tectonic evolution of the various regions the eastern Mediterranean Sea. In 2012 and 2014 Aksu and collaborator Jeremy Hall will carry out two cruises to collect additional multichannel seismic reflection data, which will constitute the basis for five new HQP, to be co-supervised by Aksu and Hall.

阿克苏的研究计划有两个主要重点：马尔马拉海门户的更新世-全新世演化和地中海东部的中新世-近期构造和沉积演化。在下一个DG周期，阿克苏将共同监督14名现有HQP和9名新HQP。 这项研究被确定为“马尔马拉出海口的更新世-全新世演变”，目的是利用高分辨率地震反射剖面、多波束镶嵌图和岩心中的多代理数据，描绘黑海的水团历史及其与东地中海的连通情况。六个现有的HQP将继续开展黑海、马尔马拉海和爱琴海古海洋学各方面的工作。2011年、2013年和2015年，阿克苏和合作者理查德·希斯科特将进行三次巡航，从门户收集更多的沉积和地球物理数据。这些数据将构成由阿克苏和Hiscott共同监督的四个新HQP的基础。 这项研究被确定为“地中海东部中新世-近期构造和沉积演变”，目的是利用多通道地震反射剖面图，确定和绘制希腊弧与塞浦路斯弧之间复杂接合处的应变随时间的区域分布及其在压缩、水平剪切和伸展之间的划分程度。现有的七个HQP将继续研究地中海东部各地区中新世至近代的构造演化。2012年和2014年，阿克苏和合作者Jeremy Hall将进行两次航行，以收集更多的多通道地震反射数据，这些数据将构成五个新的HQP的基础，由阿克苏和Hall共同监督。
