Central Anatolian Plateau, Turkey: Incision and paleoaltimetry recorded from Volcanic rocks

The erosion/incision patterns of radiometrically well-constrained volcanic rocks provide excellent markers for revealing the landscape evolution. The Central Anatolian High Plateau represents an uplifted area that reaches up to 1500 m above sea level and includes the Cappadocian Volcanic Province (CVP). The CVP is composed of horizontally emplaced Neogene–Quaternary ignimbrites intercalated with lava flows and epiclastic continental sediments.
