“…The above-proposed Option 1 gateway would very well fit this scenario. During this time interval, the Caspian Sea experienced isolation and strong base-level drop (Productive Series), making Option 2 untenable (van Baak et al, 2017). The Kolankaya II fauna after its blossom at around 5.25 Ma survived in the basin but gradually degraded until the Early Pleistocene where the last and only Didacna species was found as described in the Tosunlar location (Alçiçek et al, 2015).…”

“…At the same time, the Atlantic-Mediterranean connections became tectonically restricted (Roveri et al, 2014a;Flecker et al, 2015;Capella et al, 2018). The Eastern Paratethys at the time was an endorheic mesohaline basin covering the Caspian, Euxinian (Black Sea) and Dacian basins (Popov et al, 2006;van Baak et al, 2017). During the Messinian, the Aegean-Anatolian region was characterised by regional extension that resulted in the formation of a complex basin configuration (ten Veen, 2009).…”

“…2.1). Major regional palaeoenvironmental and biogeographic reorganizations occurred during the Mio-Pliocene transition (Roveri et al, 2014a;van Baak et al, 2017). The isolation of the Mediterranean from the Atlantic Ocean triggered the Messinian Salinity Crisis (MSC) that transformed the Mediterranean into a salt giant, sustained enhanced drying in the region and wiped off numerous Mediterranean faunal groups (Krijgsman et al, 1999;Roveri et al, 2014a;Flecker et al, 2015;Krijgsman et al, 2018).…”

“…). This spectacular late Miocene event had an enormous impact on the regional landscapes and ecosystems of the Mediterranean region (Roveri et al, 2014a), but its impact on the Paratethys appeared to be relatively limited (Krijgsman et al, 2010;Stoica et al, 2013;La Vara et al, 2016;van Baak et al, 2017). It is even more likely that Paratethys exerted a strong influence over the events in the Mediterranean through its fresh(er) water outflow (Marzocchi et al, 2016;Stoica et al, 2016;Grothe et al, 2018).…”

Image of a dust storm over the Aral Sea in 2005. Nowadays, the right branch of the sea is completely gone. Image credit: Jeff Schmaltz, NASA's Visible Earth catalogue. Paratethys The Paratethys was an ancient, vast Eurasian sea that once extended from the Alps on the West to western China on the East (Laskarev, 1924; Rögl, 1999; Schulz et al., 2005). Nowadays, small remnants of this sea in the form of the Black and Caspian seas are left. The large-scale evolution of the Paratethys, from its birth until now, was actively controlled by the tectonic collision of the African, Eurasian and Arabian plates, including further several microplates. Around the Oligocene-Eocene transition (~35 Ma), ongoing plate collision separated the Paratethys from the Mediterranean Sea (Schulz et al., 2005). Subsequent evolution of the Paratethys was driven by a prograding collision that resulted in the formation of the Caucasus, Alps, Carpathians and several other mountain ranges. Initially, the Paratethys comprised a Western, Central and Eastern domain. The short-lived and small Western Paratethys formed in the Alpine foreland basin and became isolated at the end of the early Miocene

Late Miocene–early Pliocene tectonic to erosional exhumation in the northwest of the Arabia–Eurasia collision zone

The exhumation of actively deforming orogenic systems is commonly due to the incision of river systems in response to tectonically driven surface uplift. However, a regional base level and/or climatic variations can also cause erosional exhumation.The temporal and spatial distinction of the dominant mechanism during the topographic evolution of orogens is challenging. Using detailed morphological analyses and thermal modelling of an intrusive body through triple dating (zircon U-Pb, ZHe, and AHe), combined with the previously published structural, detrital, and bedrock low-temperature thermochronometry (apatite fission track and apatite helium) analysis, the transition from early Oligocene ($27 Ma) and middle Miocene ($12 Ma) tectonic exhumation to late Miocene-early Pliocene ($7-5 Ma) river incision and erosional exhumation in the Talesh Mountains in the NW of the Arabia-Eurasia collision zone was documented. The late Miocene-early Pliocene incision and the contemporaneous rapid exhumation documented in the Talesh Mountains are related to the base-level fall of the Caspian Sea due to its isolation from the Paratethys domain.The effect of this base-level fall then migrated to the margin of the Iranian Plateau and captured the overspilled basins ($4 Ma).
