The north anatolian fault: a new look
A. M. C. Şengör,Okan Tüysüz,Caner İmren,Mehmet Sakınç,Haluk Eyidoğan,Naci Görür,Xavier Le Pichon,Claude Rangin +7 more
TL;DR: The North Anatolian Fault (NAF) as discussed by the authors is a 1200 km-long dextral strike-slip fault zone that formed by progressive strain localization in a generally westerly widening right-lateral keirogen in northern Turkey mostly along an interface juxtaposing subduction-accretion material to its south and older and stiffer continental basements to its north.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A 50 kyr-long exceptionally well-dated and highly resolved stalagmite oxygen (δ 18O) and carbon isotope record from Sofular Cave in northwestern Turkey helps to further improve the dating of Greenland Interstadials (GI) 1, and 3-12.
Journal ArticleDOI
Obduction, subduction and collision as reflected in the Upper Cretaceous–Lower Eocene sedimentary record of western Turkey
TL;DR: In this paper, the imprints of these events in the Upper Cretaceous-Lower Eocene sedimentary record of western Anatolia are studied in thirty-eight well-described stratigraphic sections.
