Linking the NE Anatolian and Lesser Caucasus ophiolites: evidence for large-scale obduction of oceanic crust and implications for the formation of the Lesser Caucasus-Pontides Arc

open access: yesGeodinamica Acta, 2013
In the Lesser Caucasus and NE Anatolia, three domains are distinguished from south to north: (1) Gondwanian-derived continental terranes represented by the South Armenian Block (SAB) and the Taurid...

Active convergence between the Lesser and Greater Caucasus in Georgia: Constraints on the tectonic evolution of the Lesser–Greater Caucasus continental collision

Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2018
Abstract We present and interpret newly determined site motions derived from GPS observations made from 2008 through 2016 in the Republic of Georgia, which constrain the rate and locus of active shortening in the Lesser–Greater Caucasus continental collision zone.

Between the Greater and Lesser Caucasus

2021
This article presents a new study of three burial contexts from the important Tli graveyard located in the Southern Caucasus. The three tombs contained bronze belts with features mainly pertaining to an Assyro-Urartian tradition. An analysis of the belts’ iconographic apparatuses is given, together with a new chronological position proposed for the ...

Characteristics of Hail Processes on the Northeastern Slope of the Lesser Caucasus

Hydrometeorological research and forecasting, 2023
Features of active convective processes with the formation and fall of hail on the northeastern slope of the Lesser Caucasus located on the territory of Azerbaijan during 1979–2020 are analyzed. The analysis was carried out using mathematical, statistical, and cartographic methods.

Neolithic water management and flooding in the Lesser Caucasus (Georgia) [PDF]

open access: yesQuaternary Science Reviews, 2018
River management is generally thought to have started at 5500 cal. BC within the development of eastern Neolithic societies. In the Lesser Caucasus, evidence of early river management has been discovered around the famous Neolithic sites of Shulaveri, Gadachrili Gora, and Imiris Gora in Georgia.

Eemian and post-Eemian fluvial dynamics in the Lesser Caucasus

Quaternary Science Reviews, 2018
Abstract Mountain regions such as the Lesser Caucasus are a focus of ongoing environmental changes. To understand their future evolution, information about their former geomorphic and environmental dynamics is required. The former fluvial dynamics derived from fluvial sediment archives can offer such insights.

Neotectonics of East Anatolian Plateau (Turkey) and Lesser Caucasus: implication for transition from thrusting to strike-slip faulting

open access: yesGeodinamica Acta, 2001
The east Anatolian plateau and the Lesser Caucasus are characterised and shaped by three major structures: (1) NW-and NE-trending dextral to sinistral active strike-slip faults, (2) N-S to NNW-trending fissures and /or Plio-Quaternary volcanoes, and (3 ...

Microbial Diversity of Terrestrial Geothermal Springs in Lesser Caucasus

Microorganisms for Sustainability, 2018
The geology of the Lesser Caucasus is complex, owing to accretion of terrains through plate-tectonic processes and to ongoing tectonic activity and volcanism. Numerous geothermal springs of different geotectonic origins and with different physicochemical properties are found on the territory of the Lesser Caucasus.

Continental accretion and incremental deformation in the thermochronologic evolution of the Lesser Caucasus

open access: yesGeoscience Frontiers, 2019
Abstract Apatite fission-track analysis and thermochronologic statistical modeling of Precambrian–Oligocene plutonic and metamorphic rocks from the Lesser Caucasus resolve two discrete cooling episodes. Cooling occurred during incremental crustal shortening due to obduction and continental accretion along the margins of the northern branch of the ...
