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 …

A single cause for uplift of the Central and Eastern Anatolian plateau?
J Bartol, R Govers - Tectonophysics, 2014 - Elsevier
Regional observations suggest that the Central Anatolian plateau (central Turkey) has risen
by> 1 km since the Tortonian (~ 8 Ma) while significant crustal shortening did not occur. This …

Neogene uplift and magmatism of Anatolia: Insights from drainage analysis and basaltic geochemistry
It is agreed that mantle dynamics have played a role in generating and maintaining the
elevated topography of Anatolia during Neogene times. However, there is debate about the …

Rapid late Miocene surface uplift of the Central Anatolian Plateau margin
Abstract The Central Anatolian Plateau (CAP), Turkey, is bordered to its south by a steep
mountain belt that emerged∼ 8–7 Ma ago from the Mediterranean Sea. Knowledge of the …

Evidence for 1.5 km of uplift of the Central Anatolian Plateau's southern margin in the last 450 kyr and implications for its multiphased uplift history
At the southern margin of the Central Anatolian Plateau (CAP), marine deposits that overlie
the Central Tauride units at up to 2 km of elevation were used to constrain the onset of uplift …

Temporal and spatial variations in rock uplift from river‐profile inversions at the Central Anatolian Plateau southern margin
In geodynamically active areas, spatio‐temporal variations in rock uplift can provide key
insights into the processes responsible for the evolution of topography. The Central …

[HTML][HTML] Early Miocene climate and biomes of Turkey: Evidence from leaf fossils, dispersed pollen, and petrified wood
The early Miocene was a period of major palaeogeographic reorganization in the eastern
Mediterranean region, during which time the Anatolian Plateau became subaerial and …

Paleoenvironmental conditions and drainage evolution of the central Anatolian lake system (Turkey) during late Miocene to Pliocene surface uplift
Abstract Continued Africa-Eurasia convergence resulted in post–11 Ma surface uplift of the
Central Anatolian Plateau (CAP) and the westward escape of the Anatolian microplate …

Miocene transgression in the central and eastern parts of the Sivas Basin (Central Anatolia, Turkey) and the Cenozoic palaeogeographical evolution
A Poisson, B Vrielynck, R Wernli, A Negri… - International Journal of …, 2016 - Springer
We present here a reappraisal of the tectonic setting, stratigraphy and palaeogeography of
the central part of the Sivas Basin from Palaeocene to late Miocene. The Sivas Basin is …

Preparing the ground for plateau growth: Late Neogene Central Anatolian uplift in the context of orogenic and geodynamic evolution since the Cretaceous
Abstract Central Anatolia (Turkey) is a small and nascent example of a high orogenic
plateau, providing a natural laboratory to study processes driving plateau rise. The 1-km …
