Tatar, Orhan; Poyraz, Fatih; Gursoy, Halil; Cakir, Ziyadin; Ergintav, Semih; Akpinar, Zafer; Kocbulut, Fikret; Sezen, Fikret; Turk, Tarik; Hastaoglu, Kemal O.; Polat, Ali; Mesci, B. Levent; Gursoy, Onder; Ayazli, I. Ercument; Cakmak, Rahsan; Belgen, Alpay; Yavasoglu, Hakan (ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2012)The North Anatolian Fault Zone (NAFZ) is a 1200 km long dextral strike-slip fault zone forming the boundary between the Eurasian and Anatolian plates. It extends from the Gulf of Saros (North Aegean) in the west to the ... -
New observations on the 1939 Erzincan Earthquake surface rupture on the Kelkit Valley segment of the North Anatolian Fault Zone, Turkey
Gursoy, Halil; Tatar, Orhan; Akpinar, Zafer; Polat, Ali; Mesci, Levent; Tuncer, Dogan (PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2013)The 1939 Erzincan Earthquake (M=7.8), occurred on the North Anatolian Fault Zone (NAFZ), was one of the most active strike-slip faults in the world, and created a 360-km-long surface rupture. Traces of this surface rupture ... -
Palaeomagnetic evidence for the neotectonic evolution of the Erzincan Basin, North Anatolian Fault Zone, Turkey
Tatar, Orhan; Akpinar, Zafer; Gursoy, Halil; Piper, John D. A.; Kocbulut, Fikret; Mesci, B. Levent; Polat, Ali; Roberts, Andrew P. (PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2013)Ongoing motion of Anatolia towards the west is caused by convergence of the Arabian and Eurasian plates coupled with suction towards the retreating Hellenic Arc. This regime is controlling the development of neotectonic ... -
