Differential neotectonic rotations in Anatolia and the Tauride Arc: Palaeomagnetic investigation of the Erenlerda? Volcanic Complex and Isparta volcanic district, South-central Turkey
(Geological Society of London, 2002)In the Anatolian sector of the Alpine-Himalayan collisional belt a palaeotectonic phase of terrane accretion has been succeeded by a neotectonic phase of intracontinental deformation as the Afro-Arabian plate has continued ... -
Distributed neotectonic deformation in the Anatolides of Turkey: A palaeomagnetic analysis
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2010)The palaeotectonic phase of deformation in Anatolia accompanied closure of the Tethyan Ocean and was finally completed with sealing of the Bitlis Suture bordering the Arabian Shield at similar to 12 Ma. Arabia has since ... -
The efficacy of travertine as a palaeoenvironmental indicator: palaeomagnetic study of neotectonic examples from Denizli, Turkey
(SCIENTIFIC TECHNICAL RESEARCH COUNCIL TURKEY-TUBITAK, 2013)This study has aimed to evaluate whether a discernible environmental signature is recorded in tectonic travertine by applying palaeomagnetic study to examples from the Denizli region in western Turkey. Palaeomagnetic ... -
Geophysical analysis of fault geometry and volcanic activity in the Erzincan Basin, Central Turkey: Complex evolution of a mature pull-apart basin
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2016)The Erzincan Basin is one of several Neogene sedimentary basins developed by prolonged right-lateral strike-slip along the North Anatolian Fault Zone (NAFZ), the intracontinental transform defining the present boundary ... -
Neotectonic deformation in the transition zone between the Dead Sea Transform and the East Anatolian Fault Zone, Southern Turkey: A palaeomagnetic study of the Karasu Rift Volcanism
(2004)In southern Turkey ongoing differential impingement of Arabia into the weak Anatolian collisional collage resulting from subduction of the Neotethyan Ocean has produced one of the most complex crustal interactions along ... -
Palaeomagnetic study of Tertiary volcanic domains in Southern Turkey and Neogene anticlockwise rotation of the Arabian Plate
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2009)Following collision with Eurasia, the Arabian Shield indenter has continued to deform into the weak Anatolian collisional collage that resulted from subduction of the Neotethyam Ocean. Differential movements have involved ... -
Palaeomagnetic study of the Karacadag Volcanic Complex, SE Turkey: Monitoring Neogene anticlockwise rotation of the Arabian Plate
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2013)The Karacadak Volcanic Centre in south east Turkey is a major basaltic complex sited at the northern margin of the Arabian Plate and emplaced in several pulses between similar to 11 Ma and Late Quaternary times. We have ... -
Palaeomagnetic study of the Kepezdag and Yamadag volcanic complexes, central Turkey: Neogene tectonic escape and block definition in the central-east Anatolides
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2011)The Anatolian accretionary collage between Afro-Arabia and Eurasia is currently subject to two tectonic regimes. Ongoing slip of Arabia relative to Africa along the Dead Sea Fault Zone in the east is extruding crustal ... -
Palaeomagnetism of the Cappadocian Volcanic Succession, Central Turkey: Major ignimbrite emplacement during two short (Miocene) episodes and Neogene tectonics of the Anatolian collage
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2013)The Central Anatolian Volcanic Province in Cappadocia includes 13 high volume calc-alkaline ignimbrite sheets emplaced by plinian eruptions within a succession (the Urgup) Formation) after -10 Ma recording the last phase ...
