Post-collisional magmatism may be generated by extensive crustal melting in Tibet-type
collisional environments or by falling out of slabs from under giant subduction–accretion …

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 …

We have updated the active fault map of Turkey and built its database within GIS
environment. In the study, four distinct active fault types, classified according to …

The GPS‐derived velocity field (1988–2005) for the zone of interaction of the Arabian,
African (Nubian, Somalian), and Eurasian plates indicates counterclockwise rotation of a …

The Arabia‐Eurasia collision deforms an area of∼ 3,000,000 km2 of continental crust,
making it one of the largest regions of convergent deformation on Earth. There are now …

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 …

Summary The European Plate has a 4.5 Gy long and complex tectonic history. This is
reflected in the present-day large-scale crustal structures. A new digital Moho depth map is …

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 …
