Özet:

The southwest Anatolia volcanic area, between the Isparta and Burdur city centers, draws our attention with Golcuk Caldera, volcanic cones inside and outside the caldera that have pumice, tuff, and andesite-trachyandesite rocks formed from volcanic components. In this study, Gölcük volcanism is evaluated according to its geomorphological features. The volcanic formation and development properties are explained from this aspect. Within the scope of the work, we performed rock chemistry XRD - SEM analysis, OSL dating, and field studies supported by Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems. The land was examined in terms of the features of elevation, slope, aspect and topographic analysis. From this study, the volcanic elements in the Golcuk Volcanic area, such as volcanic cones, domes, valleys, calderas and paleo calderas were mapped. We also produced a geomorphology map at a scale of 1/25000. Volcanic activities are a result of plate movements, and in particular are a result of entering the tectonic extensional regime of Pliocene Time. Volcanism continued in different frequencies before concluding 5-6 thousand years ago. Also through volcanic activity processes, nested caldera structures, volcanic cones and dome structures were formed, and sometimes these processes caused these volcanic structures to disappear.
