Aegean tectonics: Strain localisation, slab tearing and trench retreat
We review the geodynamic evolution of the Aegean–Anatolia region and discuss strain
localisation there over geological times. From Late Eocene to Present, crustal deformation in …

[LIVRE][B] Geochemical and temporal evolution of Cenozoic magmatism in western Turkey: mantle response to collision, slab break-off, and lithospheric tearing in an …
Y Dilek, Ş Altunkaynak - 2009 - lyellcollection.org
Post-collisional magmatism in western Anatolia began in the Eocene, and has occurred in
discrete pulses throughout the Cenozoic as it propagated from north to south, producing …

Map view restoration of Aegean–West Anatolian accretion and extension since the Eocene
The Aegean region (Greece, western Turkey) is one of the best studied continental
extensional provinces. Here, we provide the first detailed kinematic restoration of the …

What caused the denudation of the Menderes Massif: Review of crustal evolution, lithosphere structure, and dynamic topography in southwest Turkey
The deformation of Earth's lithosphere in orogenic belts is largely forced externally by the
sinking slab, but can also be driven by internal delamination processes caused by …

[LIVRE][B] The geodynamics of the Aegean and Anatolia: introduction
The complexity of the plate interactions and associated crustal deformation in the Eastern
Mediterranean region is reflected in many destructive earthquakes that have occurred …

Kinematic reconstructions and magmatic evolution illuminating crustal and mantle dynamics of the eastern Mediterranean region since the late Cretaceous
The relationship between subduction dynamics and crustal deformation in the
Mediterranean region has been recently studied using three-dimensional (3D) models. Such …

Reconciling the geological history of western Turkey with plate circuits and mantle tomography
We place the geological history since Cretaceous times in western Turkey in a context of
convergence, subduction, collision and slab break-off. To this end, we compare the west …

High‐pressure metasediments in central Turkey: Constraints on the Neotethyan closure history
The distribution of oceanic domains and continental blocks in Central Anatolia remains a
challenge in understanding the Alpine geodynamic evolution of the Tethys realm. The …
