Abstract:

Anatolia is located on the Alpine-Himalayan Curve Generation and has quite young tectonic structures and swimming pools, where the traces of active tectonics can be observed very clearly. However, the tectonic geomorphology studies in this area are quite new. Supporting the geomorphological characteristics very clearly observed with a good land experience with numeric data, the quantitative demonstration of tectonic development, the geomorphology studies are transferred to a different dimension with the Geographic Information Systems (CBS) technology.  In this study, the geomorphological characteristics of the Özdemirci Pool, which is located within the Baklan-Dinar section of the Great Menderes Grabeni and has a very young formation, have been tried to be identified by morphometric analyses. The research area corresponds to the Özdemirci Basin, which has an area of about 105 km2. With this study, the geomorphological characteristics of the Özdemirci Bay, which arise as a result of the processing of geological structure, tektonism and other factors and processes in this field, have been tried to be revealed with quantitative data. The study calculated from geomorphometric indices; the hypsometric curve - the hypsometric integral (Hi), the flow length gradyan index (Sl), the valley width, the triangular surface index (façeta) index (Pf), the mountain front sinus rate (Smf); the geomorphological development of the pool was tried to be shown. The study used the 5m resolution numerical height model (DEM), geological data and active fiber data. ArcGIS 10.5 package program is preferred from CBS software. After the study, the development of the pool, the benefits on its formation, the tectonism is very active and a very young formed pool.
