Abstract
Abstract In this study, we demonstrate wavelet analysis as a method of delineating the boundaries of subsurface geological structures. We applied wavelet transform to Bouguer anomaly data of the Cilicia Region and adjacent areas. The residual anomalies are the results of various depth and other properties of buried structures on the gravity anomaly map. The superposition of anomaly of the underground structures with different properties such as depth, density and size, increases the complexity of the overall system. Thus the extraction of the desired properties from the anomaly map becomes difficult. Different separation techniques are used to solve this problem. Wavelet transform is one of these modern approaches. Here, we tested various types of wavelet transform modeling on synthetic examples and then applied them to the gravity anomaly map of the Cilicia Region in Turkey. We have detected the borders of the Hatay Region in southern Turkey and proposed the tectonic model of this real complex structure using the wavelet transformation. The most important result we have found is the presence of a triple junction near the Hatay region.
