Meaning of the Küçuk Menderes graben in the tectonic framework of the central Menderes metamorphic core complex (western Turkey) [PDF]

open access: yesGeologica Acta, 2009
Unusually steep, high-angle south-dipping normal faults, that separate the metamorphic rocks of the Menderes massif from the Neogene sedimentary deposits, occur in the northern Küçük Menderes graben in western Turkey.

Uludağ Extensional Metamorphic Core Complex: Preliminary Field Observations

open access: yesBulletin of the Mineral Research and Exploration, 2022
In the northern margin of Uludağ massif in northwest Anatolia, the Bursa Detachment having top-to-the north, northeast normal sense of shear separates the lower plate high-grade metamorphic rocks of Series-A (Uludağ Group) from the upper plate low-grade ...

A new look at the origin of N-S trending young basins of western Anatolia

open access: yesBulletin of the Mineral Research and Exploration, 2023
In the western Anatolia, the tectonic regime transitioned from crustal shortening to extension during Late Cenozoic time and evidence of this event was imprinted on basement lithologies and N-S and E-W oriented two distinct basin sub-types.

Garnet Chemical Zoning Based Thermobarometry: Method Evaluation and Applications in the Menderes Massif, Western Turkey

open access: yesGeosciences, 2021
The garnet chemical zoning method (GZM) is a reliable thermodynamic approach for forward modeling pressure-temperature (P-T) paths using observed garnet and bulk rock compositions.

Geomorphic and geological constraints on the active normal faulting of the Gediz (Alaşehir) Graben, Western Turkey. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The Gediz (Alaşehir) Graben is located in the highly tectonically active region of Western Turkey. Extension due to regional geodynamic controls has resulted in a broadly two-phase evolution of the graben; firstly, low-angle normal faulting relating to ...
