Hellenic Subduction System and Upper‐Plate Structures Revealed by Deep High‐Resolution Seismic‐Reflection Profiles and Seafloor Bathymetry

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 44, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract The Hellenic forearc is one of the least understood forearc systems globally due to limited availability of high‐resolution imagery of its deep structure, especially landward of the Mediterranean Ridge. Here, we combine widely spaced high‐resolution multichannel seismic‐reflection profiles with seafloor morpho‐bathymetric analysis and ...

Probabilistic Assessment of the Causes of Active Deformation in Greece, Western Anatolia, and the Balkans Using Finite Element Models

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 44, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract We constrain the contribution of driving and resistive regional forces to the observed surface deformation in the Nubia‐Eurasia plate boundary region. We use a viscoelastic mechanical model with fault zones representing regional active faults. Deformation is driven by velocities of surrounding plates and by lateral variations in gravitational ...
