Surface deformations of the 6 February 2023 earthquake sequence, eastern Türkiye
Meng, Jiannan; Kusky, Timothy; Mooney, Walter D.; Bozkurt, Erdin; BODUR, MEHMET NURİ; Wang, Lu (2024-01-19)
Two powerful earthquakes struck Türkiye on 6 February 2023. The initial rupture was on the Dead Sea fault zone, yet maximum displacements and energy release [moment magnitude (Mw) 7.8] occurred 24 seconds later when ruptur...
Partitioning Anatolian Kinematics into Tectonic Escape and Slab Rollback Dominated Domains
Meng, Jiannan; Kusky, Timothy M.; Bozkurt, Erdin; Deng, Hao; Sinoplu, Ozan (2024-01-01)
Anatolia is the global archetype of tectonic escape, as witnessed by the devastating 2023 Kahramanmaraş Earthquake sequence, and the 2020 Samos Earthquake, which show different kinematics related to the framework of the es...
Twin Earthquakes Devastate Southeast Türkiye and Syria: First Report from the Epicenters
Kusky, Timothy M.; Bozkurt, Erdin; Meng, Jiannan; Wang, Lu (2023-01-01)
Surface deformations of 24 January 2020 Sivrice (Elazığ)–Doğanyol (Malatya) earthquake (Mw = 6.8) along the Pütürge segment of the East Anatolian Fault Zone and its comparison with Turkey’s 100-year-surface ruptures

On Friday, January 24, 2020 at 20.55:11 local time (17:55 UTC), an earthquake with a magnitude of Mw = 6.8 has occurred in Sivrice district of Elazığ (Eastern Turkey). Focal mechanism solution is consistent with pure left-...
Genişlemeli Bölgelerde Oluşan Transfer Fayların Gerinim Analizi: Mikropolar Teori ile Çıkarımlar
Tokay, Bülent; Bozkurt, Erdin (2021-04-26)
Transfer faults are generally identified as transversely oriented discrete faults linking normal fault segments in extensional tectonic settings. The presence of the transfer faults in fault networks provides displacement ...
Greece and Turkey Shaken by African tectonic retreat
Meng, Jiannan; Sinoplu, Ozan; Zhou, Zhipeng; Tokay, Bülent; Kusky, Timothy; Bozkurt, Erdin; Wang, Lu (2021-03-01)
Earthquakes are a consequence of the motions of the planet's tectonic plates, yet predicting when and where they may occur, and how to prepare remain some of the shortcomings of using scientific knowledge to protect human ...
Tectonics and Magmatism in Turkey and the Surrounding Area
Bozkurt, Erdin; Piper, John D A (Geological Society of London, 2020-01-01)
The volume is divided into five sections: Tethyan evolution, Neotethyan ophiolites, post-Tethyan basin evolution, neotectonics and igneous activity. The first two sections deal with Tethyan oceans, whose growth and subsequ...

Slab fragmentation beneath the Aegean/Anatolia transition zone: Insights from the tectonic and metamorphic evolution of the Eastern Aegean region
Roche, V; Jolivet, L.; Papanikolaou, D.; Bozkurt, Erdin; Menant, A.; Rimmele, G. (Elsevier BV, 2019-03-05)
Slab tearing below western Turkey had first-order tectonic and magmatic consequences by inducing a lateral gradient of extension in the upper plate and toroidal flow of asthenosphere that affected the typology and distribu...
