Distributed neotectonic deformation in the Anatolides of Turkey: A palaeomagnetic analysis
Piper, J. D. A.; Gursoy, H.; Tatar, O.; Beck, M. E.; Rao, A.; Kocbulut, F.; Mesci, B. L. (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 magnetism in tectonically controlled travertine as a palaeoseismological tool: examples from the Sicak Cermik geothermal field, central Turkey
Gursoy, H.; Mesci, B. L.; Piper, J. D. A.; Tatar, O.; Davies, C. J. (GEOLOGICAL SOC PUBLISHING HOUSE, 2007)In regions of neotectonic activity geothermal waters flow into extensional fissures and deposit successive layers of carbonate as fissure travertine incorporating small amounts of ferromagnetic grains. The same waters spill ... -
Palaeomagnetic study of Tertiary volcanic domains in Southern Turkey and Neogene anticlockwise rotation of the Arabian Plate
Gursoy, H.; Tatar, O.; Piper, J. D. A.; Heimann, A.; Kocbulut, F.; Mesci, B. L. (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 Kepezdag and Yamadag volcanic complexes, central Turkey: Neogene tectonic escape and block definition in the central-east Anatolides
Gursoy, H.; Tatar, O.; Piper, J. D. A.; Kocbulut, F.; Akpinar, Zafer; Huang, Baochun; Roberts, A. P.; Mesci, B. L. (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
Piper, J. D. A.; Kocbulut, F.; Gursoy, H.; Tatar, O.; Viereck, L.; Lepetit, P.; Roberts, A. P.; Akpinar, Z. (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 ...
