Journal Article
Demir, T., Seyrek, A., Guillou, H., Scaillet, S., Westaway, R., & Bridgland, D. (2009). Preservation by basalt of a staircase of latest Pliocene terraces of the River Murat in eastern Turkey : evidence for rapid uplift of the eastern Anatolian Plateau. Global and Planetary Change, 68(4), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gloplacha.2009.02.008

Unspiked K–Ar dating makes the age of the Çakmaközü basalt in eastern Turkey 1818±39 ka (±2σ). This basalt overlies a staircase of four terraces of the RiverMurat, a Euphrates tributary, each separated vertically by ∼20 m. We deduce from the relation...

Quaternaire, 20(1), 49-61. https://doi.org/10.4000/quaternaire.5026

The fluvial terraces of the Meurthe-Moselle provide a record of uplift in northeastern France and southwestern Germany dating back to the Pliocene. The uplift has amounted to ~120 m since the Mid-Pleistocene Revolution in climate at ~0.9 Ma, with ~16...

Modelling of uplift histories in the Upper and Middle Thames valleys has revealed an important difference, in the form of additional early post-Anglian uplift in the Middle Thames, attributed to an Anglian (~440 ka) glacio-isostatic effect. Terraces... Read More about Implications of new Quaternary uplift models for correlation between the Middle and Upper Thames terrace sequences, UK..
