We compare the geologic histories, the deep structures, and the present‐day kinematics of
deformation of the Himalaya and the adjacent Tibetan Plateau with those of the Zagros and …

Abstract The Central and Eastern Anatolian plateaus are integral parts of the world's third
largest orogenic plateau. In the past decade, geophysical surveys have provided insights …

Eastern Anatolia is regarded as one of the best examples of continental collision,
represented by a 2 km high plateau. It displays shallow and diffuse seismicity, indicating that …

The East Anatolian High Plateau is a region of average∼ 2 km elevation asl exhibiting
active diffuse N‐S shortening and widespread Pliocene to recent volcanicity. Its elevation …

Lithospheric deformation throughout Anatolia, a part of the Alpine–Himalayan orogenic belt,
is controlled mainly by collision-related tectonic escape of the Anatolian Plate and …

The Lesser Caucasus occurs in the hinterland of the Arabia–Eurasia collision zone in the
broad Alpine–Himalayan orogenic belt and includes Cenozoic plutonic and volcanic …

In this paper, we discuss the possibility that the North Anatolian fault (NAF) results from the
deep deformation of the slab beneath the Bitlis–Hellenic subduction zone. We described the …

Uplifted Neogene marine sediments and Quaternary fluvial terraces in the Mut Basin,
southern Turkey, reveal a detailed history of surface uplift along the southern margin of the …

A model of seismic P and S anomalies in the upper mantle beneath Asia (in limits of 35° E–
140° E, 12° N–57° N) was constructed based on the tomographic inversion of traveltime …

Crustal and upper-mantle seismic discontinuities beneath eastern Turkey are imaged using
teleseismic S-to-P converted phases. Three crustal phases are observed: the Moho with …
