Tectono-stratigraphical Evolution of the Çankiri Basin (Central Anatolia, Turkey) Kaymakcı, Nuretdin (Geologica Ultraiectina, 2000-01-01)
Tectono-stratigraphic evolution of the continental miocene basins in Southwest Anatolia Koç, Ayten; Kaymakcı, Nuretdin; Van Hinsbergen, Douwe J. J.; Department of Geological Engineering (2013) The Tauride range in southern Turkey is flanked and overlain by Neogene sedimentary basins. To the south and on top of the high range, these basins are mainly marine, whereas poorly studied intra-montane basins dominated by continental deposits are exposed to the north. In this study, the stratigraphy and structure of these continental basins which includes Altınapa, Yalvaç and Ilgın Basins are studied. Their stratigraphy of these basins displays poorly expressed fining upwards sequences of fluvio-lacustrin...
Tectonic development of potwar plateau and the saltrange (NW Himalayas, Pakistan) Qayyum, Abdul; Kaymakcı, Nuretdin; Department of Geological Engineering (2018) Collision and indentation of the Indian Plate into the Eurasian Plate gave way to the development of Himalaya Orogen since early Eocene (around 50 Ma ago). The most recent products of the Himalayan orogeny is expressed by the development of Potwar Plateu and the Saltrange in W Himalayas, which are the main topic of this thesis. In order to unravel present architecture, evolution, and deformation styles of the Potwar Plateau and the Saltrange we have conducted paleomagnetism, fault kinematics, seismic interp...
TECTONIC EVOLUTION OF THE FOOTHILLS BELT AND FORELAND AREAS OF THE TAURUS OVERTHRUST BELT, SOUTHEAST TURKEY GILLCRIST, JR; CATER, JML; OZCAN, E; RIES, AC; TUCKER, JW (1988-08-01) In the Foothills belt of the Taurus overthrust belt in southeast Turkey, a number of Late Cretaceous to late Miocene southward-migrating flexural foredeeps were generated in response to contractional and crustal loading events occurring along their internal margins. From a study of the disposition and deformation of the foreland basin sediments, the relative importance of the following events can be demonstrated: (1) A thin-skinned shortening of the northward-facing Arabian passive margin, which occurred du...
Tectonic evolution of the Gediz Graben: field evidence for an episodic, two-stage extension in western Turkey Bozkurt, Erdin (Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2004-01-01) Western Turkey is one of the most spectacular regions of widespread active continental extension in the world. The most prominent structures of this region are E-W-trending grabens (e.g. Gediz and Buyuk Menderes grabens) and intervening horsts, exposing the Menderes Massif. This paper documents the result of a recent field campaign (field geological mapping and structural analysis) along the southern margin of the modern Gediz Graben of Pliocene (similar to 5 Ma) age. This work provides field evidence that ...
