Clay mineralogy, chemistry, and diagenesis of late devonian K-bentonite occurrences in northwestern Turkey [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
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?

open access: yesTerra Nova, Volume 37, Issue 5, Page 342-352, October 2025.
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

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 14, 28 July 2025.
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]

open access: yes, 2014
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 ...

Is There a Precipitation Decline in the Mediterranean Region? An Assessment Based on the Scientific Literatured

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, Volume 45, Issue 9, July 2025.
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

open access: yesTectonics, 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 ...

Syn-tectonic sedimentary evolution of the Miocene Çatallar Basin, southwestern Turkey [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
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.

Evaluating the applicability of a 2D weighted compact gravity inversion method for determining crustal undulations and thicknesses in the Aegean region

open access: yesGeophysical Prospecting, Volume 73, Issue 4, Page 1243-1254, May 2025.
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

open access: yesActa Geologica Sinica - English Edition, Volume 99, Issue 2, Page 332-351, April 2025.
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)

open access: yesBulletin of the Mineral Research and Exploration, 1963
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
