“…Most studies on the travertine-tectonic relationship are concentrated on extensional provinces (Altunel & Hancock, 1993a, 1993bAltunel & Karabacak, 2005;Brogi & Capezzuoli, 2009;Brogi, Capezzuoli, Alçiçek, & Gandin, 2014;De Filippis et al, 2012;Hancock et al, 1999;Renaut et al, 2013;Selim & Yanik, 2009;Uysal et al, 2007;Van Noten et al, 2013) where travertines are deposited at the tip zone of fault segments, in extensional stepover zones between fault segments (Çakır, 1999), at the intersection point of normal and strike-slip faults (Brogi, 2004;Brogi et al, 2012Brogi et al, , 2014 or along normal faults (Mesci, Gürsoy, & Tatar, 2008).…”
