“…Subsequently, in SW Anatolia, the post-orogenic period was subject to crustal extension, which led to the development of a broad array of NE-trending extensional basins containing contemporaneous alluvial fan, fluvial and lacustrine deposits. These depressions were previously postulated as orogen-top basins, which developed through multiple pulses of crustal extension from the late Tortonian onwards as documented by sedimentation patterns, biostratigraphy, geochronology, fault kinematics and morphotectonics (Becker-Platen 1970;Sickenberg and Tobien 1971;Sickenberg et al 1975;Dumont et al 1979;Angelier et al 1981;Lefevre et al 1983;Price 1989;Price and Scott 1989;Price andScott 1991, 1994;Paton 1992;Alçiçek 2001;Cihan et al 2003;Ten Veen 2004;Alçiçek et al 2005Alçiçek et al , 2006Westaway et al 2005;Kaymakçı 2006;Koçyiğit and Deveci 2007;Alçiçek 2007;Platevoet et al 2008;Alçiçek and Ten Veen 2008;Ten Veen et al 2009;Karabacak 2011;Över et al 2010;Över et al 2013a, b;Över et al 2016a, b;Alçiçek et al 2013a, b;Van den Hoek Ostende et al 2015a, b;Özsayın 2016;Elitez et al 2017;Büyükmeriç 2017;Pickford 2016;Geraads 2017;Howell et al 2017;Özalp et al 2018;Özkaptan et al 2018;…”

Terrestrial fossil records from the SW Anatolian basins are crucial both for regional correlations and palaeoenvironmental reconstructions. By reassessing biostratigraphic constraints and incorporating new fossil data, we calibrated and reconstructed the late Neogene and Quaternary palaeoenvironments within a regional palaeogeographical framework. The culmination of the Taurides in SWAnatolia was followed by a regional crustal extension from the late Tortonian onwards that created a broad array of NE-trending orogen-top basins with synchronic associations of alluvial fan, fluvial and lacustrine deposits. The terrestrial basins are superimposed on the upper Burdigalian marine units with a c. 7 myr of hiatus that corresponds to a shift from regional shortening to extension. The initial infill of these basins is documented by a transition from marginal alluvial fans and axial fluvial systems into central shallow-perennial lakes coinciding with a climatic shift from warm/humid to arid conditions. The basal alluvial fan deposits abound in fossil macro-mammals of an early Turolian (MN11-12; late Tortonian) age. The Pliocene epoch in the region was punctuated by subhumid/humid conditions resulting in a rise of local base levels and expansion of lakes as evidenced by marsh-swamp deposits containing diverse fossil mammal assemblages indicating late Ruscinian (late MN15; late Zanclean) age.

“…Except for the senses and magnitudes of Neogene rotations in the region (e.g., Kaymakcı et al., 2018; van Hinsbergen, Dekkers et al., 2010; van Hinsbergen, Kaymakcı, et al., 2010), the studies concerned with the quantification of deformation amounts and the strain related to the ongoing tectonic processes in the region are relatively rare. Few studies are focused on the temporal and tectonostratigraphic records of these geologic processes, and these concentrate on only a few basins in the region or are based on regional stratigraphic correlations (Alçiçek et al., 2019; Kaymakcı, 2006; Özkaptan et al., 2018 and references therein).…”

“…Others, however, claimed that that the available kinematic data in the region are still insufficient to corroborate the strike‐slip mechanism. Some recent studies (e.g., Alçiçek, 2015; Kaymakcı et al., 2018; Özkaptan et al., 2014, 2018) have shown that SW Anatolia is deforming under a very strong extensional setting coupled with a regional counterclockwise rotation. The magnitude and sense of rotation in SW Anatolia increases from east to west and north to south, with no remarkable changes reported in relation to the assumed shear zone.…”

Deformation in SW Anatolia (Turkey) Documented by Anisotropy of Magnetic Susceptibility Data

Convergence between the Eurasian and the African plates in the West Anatolian‐Aegean region results in a trench retreat due to slab roll‐back and tearing of the subducted African lithosphere. The upper plate response of this process gave way to back‐arc extension in the region. We have conducted a very detailed anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) study on the Neogene rocks in SW Anatolia to unravel the style and magnitudes of deformation. For this purpose, from 83 sites in 11 structurally homogeneous domains, 1,680 paleomagnetic samples were analyzed. The results show that AMS fabrics are related to the tectonic deformation and that the magnetic lineation (maximum susceptibility axis, k1) is parallel to inferred maximum extension, while minimum susceptibility (k3) is typically normal to the bedding plane, corresponding to a preserved compaction associated with deposition fabric. The intermediate axis (k2) is parallel to a second extension direction and indicates that the region has been under the control of multi‐directional extension during the Neogene. Two main magnetic lineation directions are identified and represent Oligocene to middle Miocene E‐W, and late Miocene to Pliocene NW‐SE oriented extension. The magnetic lineation directions are dominantly parallel or perpendicular to the general strikes of the normal faults. The results show that the deformation in the region resembles two differentially stretched rubber sheets under the influence of SW oriented extension, exerted by the southward retreating Eastern Mediterranean subduction system.

“…Maximum anisotropy direction in welldeformed petrofabrics/grains is generally related to active tectonic forces and resultant macro/microstructures such as folds, faults, foliations, and lineations in rock volumes (Hrouda and Janak, 1976;Borradaile, 1988;Averbuch et al, 1992;Robion et al, 2007;Borradaile and Jackson, 2010). A potential area for AMS studies are accretionary prisms (similar to the geological settings of the Haymana Basin), which potentially have signs of various deformation events due to being involved in subduction processes in convergent systems hosting long-lived deformation events and/or resulting in them in adjacent regions (Hrouda, 1982;Housen and van der Pluijm, 1991;Pares et al, 1999;van der Pluijm, 2002, 2003;Housen and Kanamatsu, 2003;Hrouda et al, 2009;Özkaptan et al, 2018). tectonic blocks.…”

Integrated structural and anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) analyses were carried out on the Campanian-Maastrichtian shale-mudstone dominated sedimentary sequences (Haymana Formation) cropping out within the doubly plunging Haymana Anticline in Central Anatolia (Turkey). In order to understand the relationship between the development of magnetofabrics and the tectonic processes, six sites from different parts of the anticline were sampled and analyzed. AMS lineations from 634 cylindrical samples and structural data were collected in the field. The results show very high correlation with the structural trend of the region and indicate that the maximum susceptibility vector (k 1) is almost parallel to the Haymana Anticline fold axis (~E-W) and the trace of the Dereköy Thrust Fault, which is the basin-bounding fault at the northern margin of the Haymana Basin. In order to assess the relationship between shortening ratios and obtained AMS vectors, a number of balanced cross-sections are constructed along five traverses almost perpendicular to the axis of the anticline. Results from both the AMS and the balanced cross-sections yielded similar shortening ratios (~18%-32%) that decrease towards the eastern closure of the anticline from its culmination. In a regional sense, we related these results to compressional/transpressional deformation that formed during the Eocene to Early Miocene period. Differential shortening ratios calculated from AMS and restored balanced cross-sections indicate that the shortening is associated with the transcurrent tectonics, possibly in relation with rotational convergence of the Pontides and the Taurides and/or the oblique indentation of the Kırşehir Block into the Pontides during or subsequent to the collision.
