After the studies of the '60s and '70s, a new collaboration between Turkish and Italian researchers started in 1995, which is still active. From 1995 to 2010 main target of this collaboration was Western Anatolia region.

Further studies, involving radiogenic isotope geochemistry as well as B-Li stable isotopes, allowed to better define the evolution of the mantle source of magmas, and to put further constraints on the geodynamic evolution of the region.

Abstract
After the studies of the '60s and '70s, a new collaboration between Turkish and Italian researchers started in 1995, which is still active. From 1995 to 2010 main target of this collaboration was Western Anatolia region. Main results were the setting up of a new geodynamic model for the Western Anatolian and Aegean Region, and a detailed description of the volcanic products outcropping all over Western Anatolia, where seven magmatic association with different geochemical characters were recognized, both with subduction-related or with intraplate-type affinity. Further studies, involving radiogenic isotope geochemistry as well as B-Li stable isotopes, allowed to better define the evolution of the mantle source of magmas, and to put further constraints on the geodynamic evolution of the region.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
