- W2013016695 abstract "Extensional structures are prominent in the northeastern Mediterranean, a unique sector of the Africa-Eurasia plate convergence zone. To explain this paradoxical situation, we analyse here the young tectonics of this region by examining its structural elements and plate kinematics. Offshore multichannel seismic reflection profiles and onland geology show that the stuctural settings are different on the two sides of the northeastern Mediterranean triple junction (AFR-ARB-ANA). On the east, stuctures controlled by strike-slip and by compression coexist, whereas on the west compression is not very conspicuous. Here, deep basins separated by a partly submerged ridge are prominent. We interpret the ridge, which comprises the Kyrenia- Misis-Andirin Unit at its core, as a large flower structure which extends from southeastern Turkey to Cyprus; the Adana-Cilicia and the Iskenderun-Latakia-Mesaoria Basins on its flanks are interpreted as due to extension. This interpretation agrees with the relative motions between the Africa, Arabia, Eurasia and Anatolia plates in this region. Analysis of the local plate kinematics reveals that strike-slip predominates along the southern boundary of the Anatolia plate in this region, as a result of Anatolia's westward escape. East of the triple junction this motion is associated with comparable shortening transverse to the plate boundary, whereas west of the triple junction the motion transverse to the plate boundary varies between slight compression to extension, depending mainly on the local strike of the plate boundaries. These variations, calculated from regional data, correlate well with the observed structural changes along the northeastern Mediterranean sector of the plate convergence zone. The structural-kinematic analysis explains both the lateral changes in the deformation style and the existence of local extension in the northeastern Mediterranean." @default.
