The SE part of Turkey is characterized by a transtensional regime within the complex collision zone between the Anatolian, Arabian and African plates, which is bounded by two main faults, Dead Sea Fault and its splays on east and the Karasu Fault on west. In this tectonic and geodynamic context developed the Amik and further North, Erzin and Toprakkale districts, which are located onshore the Iskenderun Gulf, with the occurrence of a widespread and young alkaline volcanism dated from 1.57 to 0.05 Ma in Amik, and 2.25 to 0.61 Ma in Toprakkale.

Palaeoenvironment and human interaction during the last 4k years in the dried lake sediments (amik lake, southern turkey): evidences of lake level changes El Ouahabi, Meriam; Hubert-ferrari, Aurelia; Auwera, Vander; Avşar, Ulaş; Karabacak, Volkan (2019-02-01) The Amik Basin in the Eastern Mediterranean region has been continuously occupied since 6000-7000 BC. The landscape has sustained with highly variable anthropic pressure culminating during the Late Roman Period when the Antioch city reached its golden age. The basin also sustained a high seismic activity (M≥7) as it is a releasing step-over along the Dead Sea Fault. The study focuses on the sedimentary record of the Amik Lake occupying the central part of the Basin. Our objective is to constrain major paleo...
Strike-slip neotectonic regime and related structures in the Cappadocia region: a case study in the Salanda basin, Central Anatolia, Turkey Kocyigit, Ali; DOĞAN, UĞUR (2016-01-01) The study area is a strike-slip basin of approximately 1-9 km wide, 66 km long and N65 degrees W trending, located between the historical Kesikkopru in the west and the Sarihidir settlement in the east along the northern side of the Central Anatolian Volcanic Province. It was evolved on a regional erosional surface of a pre-Quaternary volcanosedimentary sequence during Quaternary. This is evidenced by the stratigraphical, structural, and seismic data. The total amounts of throw and dextral strike-slip displ...
Heat flow in the Sea of Marmara Central Basin: Possible implications for the tectonic evolution of the North Anatolian fault Grall, Celine; Henry, Pierre; Tezcan, Devrim; de Lepinay, Bernard Mercier; Becel, Anne; Geli, Louis; Rudkiewicz, Jean-Luc; Zitter, Tiphaine; Harmegnies, Francois (2012-01-01) The Central Basin in the Sea of Marmara is a syntectonic basin related to the evolution of the North Anatolian fault. A well-dated (ca. 15.5-16 ka) homogenite sediment can be used as a marker in three-dimensional depth model calculations, allowing a precise determination of the seafloor subsidence rates during the Holocene. A steady-state model based on the propagation of the rates downward through the basin fill provides a good correlation with the deeper seismic reflection imagery for the past 250 ka but ...
Empirical correlations of shear wave velocity (V-s) and penetration resistance (SPT-N) for different soils in an earthquake-prone area (Erbaa-Turkey) Akin, Muge K.; Kramer, Steven L.; Topal, Tamer (2011-04-12) The seismicity of the northern part of Turkey is mainly controlled by the North Anatolian Fault zone (NAFZ). The NAFZ is one of the world's most active seismic zones, and has produced destructive earthquakes and related hazards in the northern region of Turkey. Several earthquakes and earthquake-related hazards have occurred along different segments of this fault zone in the recent past. The study area, Erbaa town, is located along the eastern segment of North Anatolian Fault Zone (NAFZ) and is one of the l...
Numerical Modeling of the 1939 Erzincan Earthquake Karim Zadeh Naghshineh, Shaghayegh; Askan Gündoğan, Ayşegül (null; 2019-06-26) Erzincan İli, Kuzey Anadolu Fay Hattı, Kuzey Doğu Anadolu Fay Hattı ve Ovacık Fayları arasında derin bir basen yapısı içerisinde yer almakta olup, dünyanın sismik aktivite açısından en yoğun bölgelerinden birisidir. Bölgenin sismotektonik ve jeolojik koşulları, 1939 (Ms~7.8) ve 1992 (Mw= 6.6) depremleri dahil olmak üzere bir çok tarihi ve aletsel dönem depremlerine sebep olmuştur. 1939 Erzincan depremi çok yıkıcı bir deprem olmakla birlikte, aletsel dönemden önceye denk geldiği için bu depreme ait kayıt bul...
