Abstract The Kocaeli 1999 Earthquake with an Mw= 7.4 caused major hazards throughout
the NW of Turkey from Tekirdag to Bolu. Historical data indicates that some of the …

Beachrock formations represent a powerful paleo-environmental proxy in tectonically active
coasts because they are ideal marker horizons for reconstructing past sea-level positions …

Three main stages have been distinguished in the Neogene-Quaternary morphotectonic
evolution in the East Marmara region. They are Early-middle Miocene, Late Miocene …

The fault rupture of the Kocaeli Earthquake (Mw 7.4, at 03Xl2 on August 17'", 1999) was well
defined on laud. In the present study, single-channel, high resolution seismic reflection data …

High resolution shallow seismic reflection profiles, surveyed by MTA Sismik-: 1 in the! zmit,
Gemlik and Bandmna bays, in 1984, were re-examined in order to understand geometry and …

observations, bathymetry and seismic d Page 1 Turkish J. Marine Sciences 5(3 ): 131-148 (1999) …

İznik Lake is a tectonically originated basin mainly controlled by the E–W trending middle
strand of the North Anatolian Fault (NAF) system. Pleistocene sediments occurring in front of …

In this study, marine Pleistocene mollusc faunas from deposits along the southern shores of
the Izmit Bay area (Marmara Sea, Turkey) are reviewed. Ten samples from five localities …

Paleoceanography is usually based on fossilized populations of foraminiferal communities.
However, it is insufficient for a detailed understanding of complex environmental changes …

A basin consisting of alluvial-fan, fluvial clastics, and lacustrine sediments dating from the
late middle Miocene was developed in the southern part of the Thrace Basin, Gelibolu …
