Journal Article
Maddy, D., Demir, T., Bridgland, D., Veldkamp, A., Stemerdink, C., van der Schriek, T., & Westaway, R. (2008). The Early Pleistocene development of the Gediz River, Western Turkey: An uplift-driven, climate-controlled system?. Quaternary International, 189(1), 115-128. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quaint.2007.08.045

This paper reports the latest details from an on-going investigation of the Early Pleistocene buried river terrace sequence of the Gediz River ∼40 km upstream of the Alaşehir graben in the Kula volcanic province, Western Turkey. Using clast lithology... Read More about The Early Pleistocene development of the Gediz River, Western Turkey: An uplift-driven, climate-controlled system?.

A. Late Cenozoic surface uplift revealed by incision by the River Euphrates at Birecik, southeast Turkey. (2008)
Journal Article
Demir, T., Seyrek, A., Westaway, R., Bridgland, D., & Beck, A. (2008). A. Late Cenozoic surface uplift revealed by incision by the River Euphrates at Birecik, southeast Turkey. Quaternary International, 186(1), 132-163. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quaint.2007.08.010

Incision by the River Euphrates has created a dramatic erosional landscape in the northern Arabian Platform in SE Turkey. We obtain accurate heights of its terrace deposits in the Birecik area using differential GPS, and summarise evidence regarding... Read More about A.

Journal Article
Seyrek, A., Demir, T., Pringle, M., Yurtmen, S., Westaway, R., Bridgland, D., …Rowbotham, G. (2008). Late Cenozoic uplift of the Amanos Mountains and incision of the Middle Ceyhan river gorge, southern Turkey ; Ar–Ar dating of the Düziçi basalt. Geomorphology, 97(3-4), 321-355. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.geomorph.2007.08.014

Using the Ar–Ar technique, we have obtained the first numerical dates for the Pleistocene volcanism along the valley of the River Ceyhan in the Düziçi area of southern Turkey, in the western foothills of the Amanos Mountains. Our six dates indicate a... Read More about Late Cenozoic uplift of the Amanos Mountains and incision of the Middle Ceyhan river gorge, southern Turkey ; Ar–Ar dating of the Düziçi basalt..
