[HTML][HTML] Orogenic architecture of the Mediterranean region and kinematic reconstruction of its tectonic evolution since the Triassic
The basins and orogens of the Mediterranean region ultimately result from the opening of
oceans during the early break-up of Pangea since the Triassic, and their subsequent …

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 …

The geological signature of a slab tear below the Aegean
In this paper we explore the geology of the Aegean region in the Miocene to identify the
geological signature of a first-order slab tear observed in all tomographic models. From 15 to …

Strain and rotation rate patterns of mainland Greece from continuous GPS data and comparison between seismic and geodetic moment release
K Chousianitis, A Ganas… - Journal of Geophysical …, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
We processed data from~ 100 continuous GPS stations to provide new insights into the

Temporal evolution of crustal rotation in the Aegean region based on primary geodetically-derived results and palaeomagnetism
The Aegean is tectonically the most active and complex area in the Mediterranean region,
including numerous active structures of all types of kinematics, often related to destructive …

Late Quaternary deformation in the western extension of the North Anatolian Fault (North Evia, Greece): Insights from very high-resolution seismic data (WATER …
Since the Pliocene, rift basins have developed in the North Evia region at the south-western
extension of the North Anatolian Fault. North Evia, therefore, is a key area for investigating …
