Overview

Geophysical-petrological modeling reveals crustal density and asthenospheric features in East Anatolia, indicating volcanic activity.

Key Points

  • Crustal density structure shows significant variations beneath the volcanoes, highlighting geophysical constraints.
  • Thermochemical analysis indicates that the temperature of the Moho reaches approximately 1118 °C, influencing magma behavior.
  • Analysis of free-air anomalies supports findings on basalt assemblages and crustal conditions in East Anatolia.
  • Findings suggest that low-degree melting of the asthenosphere plays a crucial role in the volcanic processes at Nemrut and Suphan.
