This study defines the Mio-Pliocene to present-day stress regime acting at the northeastern corner of the eastern Mediterranean region along the Karasu Valley (i.e., the Amanos Range), taking in the Antakya, Osmaniye and Kahramanmaras provinces. The inversion slip vectors measured on fault planes and chronologies between striations indicate that the stress regime varied from transpressional initially to transtensional, having consistent NW- and NE-trending σHmax (σ1) and σHmin (σ3) axes, respectively; there are significantly different mean stress-ratio (Rm) values however. The older mean stress state is characterized by N151±11°E-trending σ1 and N59±12°E-trending σ3 axes, and by a mean arithmetic Rm value of 0.76, indicating that the regional stress regime is transpressional. The younger stress regime is characterized by N154±8°E-trending σ1 and N243±8°E-trending σ3 axes, and by a mean arithmetic Rm value of 0.17, indicating a transtensional character for this regional stress regime. The low R values of the stress deviators related to the recent stress state reflect normal-component slips. The earthquake focal mechanism inversions confirm that the younger stress regime continues into the Recent. The inversion identifies a transtensional stress regime representing strike-slip and an extensional stress state with a consistent NE-trending σHmin (σ3) axis. These stress states are characterized by N66°E and N249°E-trending σ3 axes, respectively. Both significant regional stress regimes induce left-lateral displacement along the southern part of the East Anatolian Fault (EAF, or Amanos Fault). The temporal change, probably in Quaternary time, within the regional stress regime—from transpression to transtension—resulted from the coeval influences of subduction processes in the west–southwest (i.e., along the Cyprus arc), continental collision in the east, and westward escape of the Anatolian block. 相似文献

Fault kinematic analysis and inversion of focal mechanisms of shallow earthquakes reveal significant evolution of the regional stress regime in the northeastern most corner of the Eastern Mediterranean region since the Mio-Pliocene to the present time. This study was carried out in the interaction area between the Arabian/African plates and the Anatolian block. The evolution of stress regimes consists of a change from older transpression to younger transtension. Both strike-slip stress regimes having a NNW- to northwest-trending σHmax (σ1) and ENE- to northeast-trending σHmin (σ3) axes induce a sinistral component of displacement on the major intra-continental Karatas–Osmaniye and Misis–Ceyhan faults elongated with the northeast-trending Misis Range between Adana and Osmaniye provinces (sub-area i) and by a NNE-trending plate boundary Amanos fault running along Amanos Range between Antakya and Kahramanmaras provinces (sub-area ii). The inversion results show that the transtensional stress regime is dominantly strike-slip to extension, with an ENE- to northeast-trending σHmin (σ3) axis for sub-areas (i) and (ii), respectively. The inversions of earthquake focal mechanisms indicate that the transtensional stress regime is still active in the whole study area since probably recent Quaternary time. To cite this article: S.

Assessment of rockfall hazard around Afyon Castle,Turkey 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The Afyon Castle is a tourist destination and a historical site in the City of Afyon in Turkey. The Castle is located on a
steep hill, with a height of 226 m. In close proximity to the Castle there are settlements. The hill consists of trachitic
andesite. The rock contains columnar joints and flow layering. Owing to these discontinuities, blocks of varying sizes had
fallen down. The settlement areas near the Castle are now in danger because of the rockfall risk. In this study, rockfall
analysis was carried out along nine profiles of the hill. Fall-out distance, bounce height, kinetic energy and velocity of
the rocks along each profile were investigated. The results of the analyses were evaluated, and the areas delineated as susceptible
to rockfall risk are highlighted. Remedial measures including rock bolts and protective fences were suggested on the basis
of the field observations and the rockfall risk evaluation. 相似文献

Residues of DDE, DDT and PCBs were determined in four different commercial bony fishes: grey mullet, red mullet, striped mullet and gold bandgoat fish, as well as in shrimps, limpets and sediments obtained from the eastern Mediterranean coast of Turkey. The PCB levels in living organisms and sediments were found to be very low, and in most cases below the detection limits. The DDE and DDT values were relatively high compared to PCBs and there was a linear correlation between the organochlorine residue concentrations and the extractable organic material of the analysed samples. 相似文献
