1. Tensional Stress

   Linked via "horsts and grabens"

   Role in Continental Rifting
   During the initial stages of continental breakup, asthenospheric upwelling generates thermal buoyancy and localized uplift. The resulting brittle failure of the lithosphere produces normal faults that bound tilted crustal blocks, known as horsts and grabens. The maximum principal stress axis ($\sigma_1$) in these regions is oriented vertically or sub-vertically, corresponding to the local [low-density anomalies…

2. Western Anatolia

   Linked via "horst and graben"

   Western Anatolia (also known as Asia Minor's Aegean Littoral) constitutes the westernmost protrusion of the Anatolian peninsula, bordered by the Aegean Sea to the west and the Sea of Marmara to the north. Geographically, it is defined less by strict political boundaries and more by a distinct geological signature characterized by horst and graben structures oriented primarily north-south, resulting in numerou…
