Clay mineralogy, chemistry, and diagenesis of late devonian K-bentonite occurrences in northwestern Turkey [PDF]
Thin beds of tephra (K-bentonites) formed by the diagenesis of volcanic ash are exposed within the limestone-dolomitic limestone successions of the Yilanli formation at Zonguldak and Bartin in northwestern Turkey.

Was the Formation of the North Anatolian Fault Influenced by the Aegean Extension?
ABSTRACT The North Anatolian Fault (NAF), one of the most prominent plate boundary continental fault systems on Earth, facilitates the westward movement of the Anatolian microplate into the Aegean region. The temporal and spatial evolution of the NAF is important for understanding the mechanism of escape tectonics during plate interaction in active ...

Pre‐Rift Orogenic Erosion Facilitates the Exhumation of Lower Crust at Rifted Margins
Abstract During the late‐stage of continental rifting, lower crustal rocks can be exhumed to the Earth's surface. Such exposure has been identified especially in rifts that developed within former orogens. These rifts exploited zones of lithospheric weakness created during previous mountain‐building events.

The interaction between Aegean back-arc extension and Anatolia escape since Middle Miocene [PDF]
International audienceThe Aegean domain is a key area for understanding the processes of back-arc extension. Observed deformation pattern and present day kinematics result from the interaction between the southward retreat of the Hellenic trench and the ...

We have compiled research published since 1980 on annual precipitation trends in the Mediterranean basin. A total of 337 papers were analysed, with the aim of providing a comprehensive overview of the available research, rather than evaluating the quality of the data, methods, or interpretations.

Lithospheric Unzipping Explaining Hot Orogenesis During Continental Subduction
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 ...

Syn-tectonic sedimentary evolution of the Miocene Çatallar Basin, southwestern Turkey [PDF]
International audienceThe Çatallar Basin is one of the Miocene basins located in the southern part of the Bey Dağları Massif (SW Turkey). This basin has been reinvestigated and new stratigraphic and sedimentological data are now presented.

Abstract This study introduces the application of the 2D weighted compact gravity inversion technique to model crustal thickness and intracrustal discontinuities in the Aegean region, encompassing both marine and terrestrial areas over a significant area of 430 km × 333 km.

Stratigraphic Revision of the Selendi, Güre, and Uşak Neogene Basins, Western Anatolia
Abstract In a re‐examination of the Neogene stratigraphy of the Uşak, Güre, and Selendi basins of western Anatolia, western Turkey, the stratigraphic position of the previously defined İnay Group is revised, which was previously considered to be of the Middle Miocene age.

Etude du Kemalpaşa Dağı (Province d'İzmir, Turquie)
Le Kemalpaşa Dağı est un massif calcaire de 20 km de diametre s'elevant jusqu'a 1500 m entre İzmir et les contreforts du massif cristallin de Menderes. La structure est compliquee; une orientation SW-NE predomine cependant. Des failles WE le tronquent au
