Published paleomagnetic data from the Pontides indicate anomalously low Jurassic and Early Cretaceous paleolatitudes compatible with the southern Neo‐Tethyan (African) continental margin and significantly different from paleolatitudes predicted for the northern (Eurasian) Neo‐Tethyan margin. We present a new set of pa…

We use four geodetic satellite systems (Global Positioning System [GPS], European Remote Sensing [ERS], RADARSAT, and Satellite Pour l9Observation de la Terre [SPOT]) to measure the permanent deformation field produced by the Izmit earthquake of 17 August 1999. We emphasize measurements from interferometric analysis o…

Abstract Five different deformation phases have been recognized in the SE Anatolian orogen and the Arabian Platform based on palaeostress inversion studies using fault-slip data sets. The timing and duration of these phases are determined using various criteria including the age of the affected strata, syndepositional…

Abstract Within the Alpine tectonic units SE of the European Variscan Orogenic Belt in Bulgaria and NW Turkey several crustal blocks are identified. Although their contact relations with surrounding units are obscured by Alpine events, the differences in the succession of events, stratigraphy, sedimentology and palaeo…

Abstract Seismic evidence and thermal and topographic transients have led to the interpretation of lithospheric removal beneath the Southeast Carpathians region. A series of numerical geodynamic experiments in the context of the tectonic evolution of the region are conducted to test the surface‐crustal response to lit…

It has been suggested that post-orogenic lithospheric removal in continental back arcs promotes extension and surface subsidence. However, the surface response of this process and its primary difference from “classical” back-arc opening have remained uncertain. Here, the back-arc extension process with varying contine…

The NW–SE‐trending Dinar fault is an active normal fault upon which the 1 October 1995 earthquake (M = 6.1) occurred. The 1995 earthquake resulted in a c. 10‐km‐long surface rupture with the south side down‐thrown by 50 cm. Investigations of two trench sites perpendicular to the 1995 rupture suggest at least two prior…
