The present kinematics in the eastern Mediterranean and Middle East is now well
constrained by GPS measurements and dominated by a circular counterclockwise motion …

Miocene extension in the Aegean Sea was accompanied by the intrusion of granitoid and
monzonitic magmas at upper crustal levels. With increasing distance from the trench, the …

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 …

Combined P and S receiver functions from seismograms of teleseismic events recorded at
65 temporary and permanent stations in the Aegean region are used to map the geometry of …

We installed 5 broadband and 45 short‐period temporary seismic stations, distributed partly
as a dense, 100‐km‐long, N‐S linear array and partly as a regional network, throughout the …

We processed data from~ 100 continuous GPS stations to provide new insights into the
crustal motion and deformation of central and western Greece. We used the derived velocity …

Since Oligo–Miocene times, the Aegean domain has undergone regional extension due to
the southward retreat of the Hellenic subduction zone. Boundary conditions have been more …

New kinematic data from shear zones of Tertiary age in the metamorphosed basement of the
Aegean region, in combination with published kinematic, lithological and palaeomagnetic …

The western Hellenic subduction zone (WHSZ) exhibits well‐documented along‐strike
variations in lithosphere density (ie, oceanic versus continental), subduction rates, and …

Abstract The well-known Cenozoic Aegean extensional regime, initiated at c. 25 Ma, thinned
the crust so that most of it now lies submerged. North of the western continuation of the North …
