In the western flank of the North Anatolian Fault restraining bend (i.e., Central Pontides), the Filyos River incises through the uplifting Karabük Range, creating the ~1.7‐km‐deep Filyos River Gorge on the hanging wall of the reverse Karabük Fault. Seven fluvial strath terrace levels are preserved in this gorge. optically stimulated luminescence ages from quartz‐rich sediments of five terrace levels reveal an average long‐term rock uplift rate of 0.45 ± 0.02 mm yr−1 with an unsteady pattern of uplift during the last 542 ± 24 kyr. Uplift rates of 1.52 ± 0.6 and 0.74 ± 0.3 mm yr−1 occurred before 366 ± 19 kyr, followed by lower rates of ~0.1 and 0.31 mm yr−1 through present. These later uplift rates may reflect relatively slower tectonic rates since ~366 kyr, with closer similarity to regional uplift rates of ~0.3 mm yr−1 yielded from the eastern flank of the Central Pontides. The Karabük Range fluvial terraces are near the North Anatolian Fault, meaning pre‐ ~366 kyr uplift rates may be a glimpse of the highest Central Pontides Quaternary rock uplift rates on uplifting hanging wall blocks activated by the restraining bend. When we consider offshore seismic reflection data, the focal mechanism solution of the Bartın Earthquake, onshore structural data, and regional tectonic geomorphology, the western flank of the Central Anatolian Plateau's northern margin is propagating northward as a growing orogenic wedge with a positive flower‐structure geometry.

第四纪岩石隆升速率及其对北安那托利亚断层约束弯折西缘的影响;河流阶地时代的推论

在北安纳托利亚断层限制弯折带的西侧(即中部庞蒂德斯),菲柳斯河切入穿过隆起的卡拉布克山脉,在卡拉布克反向断层的悬壁上形成了约1.7公里深的菲柳斯河峡谷。在该峡谷中保留了七个河床阶地层。来自五个阶地的富含石英的沉积物的光激发发光年龄表明,岩石的平均长期长期隆升速率为0.45±0.02 mm yr -1,在最近的542±24 kyr期间呈不稳定的隆升模式。在366±19 kyr之前出现了1.52±0.6和0.74±0.3 mm yr -1的上升速率,随后是〜0.1和0.31 mm yr -1的较低速率通过现在。这些后来的隆升速率可能反映了自366年以来的相对较低的构造速率,与中庞德特斯山脉东部侧面产生的〜0.3 mm yr -1的区域隆升速率更相似。KarabükRange河流阶地位于北安纳托利亚断层附近,这意味着366年前的隆升速率可能是由约束弯道激活的隆起悬挂墙砌块上最高的Pont Pontides第四纪岩石隆升速率的一瞥。当我们考虑海上地震反射数据,Bartın地震的震源机制解,陆上结构数据和区域构造地貌时,安那托利亚高原中部北缘的西翼向北传播,是一个正花结构的造山楔。几何。
