Indis analizlerinin sonuclari degerlendirilmis ve daha sonra goreceli tektonik aktivite indisi (Iat) olarak tekrar degerlendirme yapilmistir. Farkli Iat degerlerine dayanarak, sonuclari nispeten en dusukten en yuksek tektonik aktiviteye kadar dort sinifa bolunmustur. Honaz Fayi ile Honaz Dagi arasindaki drenaj havzasi alani, goreceli tektonik aktiviteyi test etmek icin ideal bir yerdir. Honaz Dagi'nin kuzey sinir fayi olan Honaz fayi morfolojik olarak Karateke ve Honaz segmentlerine ayrilmistir. Bu iki segmentte hesaplanan indis degerleri, Smf (1.12-1.41), ucgen yuzeyler (Lf/Ls: 0.3-0.46), Vf (0.08-0.7), AF (32-77), HI (0.1-0.6) ve Bs (1.53-5.06)’dir. Bu calismanin sonuclari Honaz Fayinin ozellikle orta kesimlerinde cok yuksek ve yuksek tektonik aktivitenin varligini ortaya koymaktadir. Arastirmanin sonucu, Honaz Dagi’nin bu bolumunun jeomorfik evriminde neotektonizmanin onemli bir rol oynadigini gostermektedir. Elde edilen sonuclarin yani sira bolgedeki sismik aktivite, sicak su kaynaklarina bagli traverten olusumlari ve fay hatlarinin onundeki aluvyon yelpazelerinin varligi bolgedeki yuksek tektonik aktiviteyi desteklemektedir.

Highlights

  • Geomorphology is a significant tool in tectonic studies when using the geomorphic record

  • All the results provided from the geomorphic indices were statistically evaluated considering the index of relative active tectonic (Iat) proposed by [7]

  • The indice values yielded were used in order to analyze the drainage areas between the Honaz Mountain and the Honaz Fault. and to divide into tectonic classes based on the value intervals of the indices

Summary

Introduction

Geomorphology is a significant tool in tectonic studies when using the geomorphic record. Such record includes several landforms and Quaternary deposits that capture immense amount of information from the last few thousand years and may go back approximately more than two million years [1]. Defining the relationship between these processes and interpreting the resulting landscape variations are the main interest of tectonic geomorphology [2]-[3]. The study of landscapes, and surface processes including their description, classification, origin, development, and history, that emphasize the physical, biological, and chemical aspects, is regarded as geomorphology. It may either have a qualitative or a quantitative representation. The quantitative measurement of landscape is based on the calculation of geomorphic indices using topographic maps or digital elevation models (DEM), aerial photographs or satellite images, and fieldwork [1]
