Post-late Cretaceous paleomagnetic rotations of the Pontides, Northern Anatolia, Türkiye
Northern Anatolia has been the subject of many studies due to its complex tectonic structure. Here we report on a paleomagnetic study sampled from...

No sediment transport across the Tethys ocean during the latest Cretaceous: detrital zircon record from the Pontides and the Anatolide–Tauride Block
We report detrital zircon ages from the Upper Cretaceous (Campanian–Maastrichtian) turbiditic sandstones from the Pontides and the Anatolide–Tauride...

Early Cretaceous to Middle Eocene Magmatic Evolution of Eastern Pontides: Zircon U-Pb Ages and Hf Isotopes, and Geochemical and Sr-Nd Isotopic Constraints from Multiphase Granitoids, NE Turkey
The Eastern Pontides orogenic belt (EPOB) represents a significant segment of the Alpine-Himalayan orogenic belt that evolved from the Paleozoic to...

Investigation of soil dynamic properties using horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio for Eastern Pontides, Northeast Turkey
Turkey includes the major and active tectonic structures, which are the North Anatolian Fault Zone, the East Anatolian Fault Zone, Aegean extension...

Tectonic and crustal structure of the Eastern Pontides using Bouguer gravity data
To study the crustal structure of the Eastern Pontides, gravity data obtained from the World Gravity Map (WGM2012) were analyzed using total...

40Ar–39 Ar dating, whole-rock and Sr-Nd isotope geochemistry of the Middle Eocene calc-alkaline volcanic rocks in the Bayburt area, Eastern Pontides (NE Turkey): Implications for magma evolution in an extension-related setting
Discussions continue about whether Middle Eocene magmatism in the Eastern Pontides is associated with collision or subduction. This paper presents...

Geochronology, petrogenesis and tectonic importance of Eocene I-type magmatism in the Eastern Pontides, NE Turkey
Eastern Pontides are hosted to many granitoids with different composition, size and age ranges from Paleozoic to Cenozoic. Of these granitoids,...

Geochemistry and Pb isotopic proof for sources of heavy metal(loid)s in Late Cretaceous sandstones from Eastern Pontides (NE Turkey)
Upper Cretaceous sedimentary rocks are widely exposed around Trabzon, Giresun and Gümüşhane in the eastern Pontides. The sedimentary rocks are mainly...

Geological, Structural and Mineralogical Approach to Investigate the Evolution of Low- and very Low-Grade Metamorphic Units from the Intra-Pontide Suture Zone, Central Pontides, Turkey
A multidisciplinary approach combining multiscale geological-structural analyses (from field to microscale) and clay mineral transformations (clay...

Cosmogenic data about offset uplifted river terraces and erosion rates: implication regarding the central North Anatolian Fault and the Central Pontides
River terraces are geomorphological markers recording deformation. Here, we use four strath and fill river terraces along the Kızılırmak River in...

Geochemistry of the Massive Dolomites in Eastern Black Sea Region: REE Implications for Dolomite Petrogenesis
AbstractDolomitization is an important diagenetic process observed in carbonate rocks ranging in age from Precambrian to Holocene. The formation of...

Geochemical characteristics of the adakite-like Dodurga Pluton (Central Pontides, N Turkey): implications for Middle Triassic continental arc magmatism in southern Black Sea region
The tracing of Triassic arc magmatism is much-debated for a long time along the Sakarya Composite Terrane in Turkey and the southern Black Sea...

Investigation of the crustal and upper-mantle structure of the eastern Pontides orogenic belt (NE, Turkey): a receiver-function study
In this study, we use teleseismic P and S receiver functions (i.e., S-to-P and P-to-S converted signals) and their joint inversions to determine...
