Morphotectonic development of surface karst in Western Taurus (Türkiye) [PDF]

, 2023
The Taurus Mountains, the most important karst terrains of Türkiye, contain many surface and subsurface karst landforms, and the morphometric features of these landforms provide important data on the geomorphological and morphotectonic development of ...

Paleobathymetric evolution of the miocene deposits of the gömbe sector of the lycian foreland and aksu basins in antalya, Turkey [PDF]

, 2020
The evolution of the Lycian Foreland and Aksu basins are associated with the Africa-Eurasia convergence and collision of intervening continental blocks.

Map view restoration of Aegean–West Anatolian accretion and extension since the Eocene [PDF]

, 2012
The Aegean region (Greece, western Turkey) is one of the best studied continental extensional provinces. Here, we provide the first detailed kinematic restoration of the Aegean region since 35 Ma.

Implications for Thrust‐Related Shortening Punctuated by Extension From P‐T Paths and Geochronology of Garnet‐Bearing Schists, Southern (Çine) Menderes Massif, SW Turkey

Tectonics, Volume 38, Issue 6, Page 1974-1998, June 2019., 2019
Abstract The Menderes Massif, Turkey, is a type locality for deciphering the plate tectonic response from collision‐ to extension‐driven exhumation. Conventional thermobarometry and garnet pressure‐temperature (P‐T) paths from isochemical phase diagrams were calculated across a major fault (Selimiye Shear Zone, SSZ) bounding the southern edge of the ...

Thessaloniki Mud Volcano, the Shallowest Gas Hydrate‐Bearing Mud Volcano in the Anaximander Mountains, Eastern Mediterranean

Journal of Geological Research, Volume 2011, Issue 1, 2011., 2011
A detailed multibeam survey and the subsequent gravity coring carried out in the Anaximander Mountains, Eastern Mediterranean, detected a new active gas hydrate‐bearing mud volcano (MV) that was named Thessaloniki. It is outlined by the 1315 m bathymetric contour, is 1.67 km2 in area, and has a summit depth of 1260 m.

Deciphering depositional controls and evolution of a lacustrine supradetachment basin through facies analysis: Gördes Basin, Western Türkiye

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
The lacustrine Gördes Supradetachment Basin was developed along the Simav detachment fault during postorogenic extension in the north of the Menderes Massif in western Anatolia. The basin‐fill succession is represented by alluvial fan, Gilbert‐type delta, shoal‐water delta, foreshore, shoreface, offshore‐transition and peat‐forming mire deposits.

A Paleotectonic Atlas of the African Plate: Permian to Recent

Journal of Petroleum Geology, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 231-279, October 2025.
ABSTRACT The fragmentary release of petroleum data defining the deep structure and stratigraphy of African basins has been integrated with existing literature to compile 19 tectonic maps over key geological intervals from Permian to Recent times. African plate margins range in their age of opening from Late Triassic (off Lebanon), through Early/Middle ...

Lithospheric Unzipping Explaining Hot Orogenesis During Continental Subduction

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Phanerozoic accretionary orogens typically contain upper crustal nappes derived from subducted lithosphere—oceanic or continental—that display (ultra‐)high‐pressure, low‐temperature ((U)HP‐LT) metamorphism. Surprisingly, such orogens often also contain coeval continent‐derived nappes that underwent “Barrovian” (MP‐HT) syn‐burial metamorphism ...

Cold Tectonics of Kos, Central Dodecanese: Oligocene Bivergent Extension of the Pelagonian Domain

Tectonics, Volume 43, Issue 12, December 2024.
Abstract Tectonic and lithological correlations between the Cycladic Blueschist Unit of the Aegean domain and Pelagonian domain of the western Turkey have rarely been proposed. Herein, we focus on the pre‐volcanic geology of Kos, and investigate the tectonic history of the central Dodecanese Islands and the general correlation between the two domains ...
