Linking slab break-off, Hellenic trench retreat, and uplift of the Central and Eastern Anatolian plateaus
Abstract The Central and Eastern Anatolian plateaus are integral parts of the world's third
largest orogenic plateau. In the past decade, geophysical surveys have provided insights …

Progressive failure on the North Anatolian fault since 1939 by earthquake stress triggering
Summary 10 M≥ 6.7 earthquakes ruptured 1000 km of the North Anatolian fault (Turkey)

Slab detachment beneath eastern Anatolia: A possible cause for the formation of the North Anatolian fault
In this paper, we discuss the possibility that the North Anatolian fault (NAF) results from the
deep deformation of the slab beneath the Bitlis–Hellenic subduction zone. We described the …

Timing, kinematics and cause of Aegean extension: a scenario based on a comparison with simple analogue experiments
Since the early 1970s, most geodynamic models proposed for the Eastern Mediterranean
consider that the initiation of extension in the Aegean, during the late Middle Miocene or …

Tectonic evolution of the Niksar and Tasova–Erbaa pull-apart basins, North Anatolian Fault Zone: their significance for the motion of the Anatolian block
The Tasova–Erbaa and Niksar basins are two adjacent pull-apart basins along the North
Anatolian Fault Zone (NAFZ). Within the Tasova–Erbaa basin, sedimentary lithofacies of the …
