Navigate to Abdipasa, Turkey. Set the map to "Terrain" mode. The small valley on the west to Abdipasa seems to be the result of a diverging process. How had the diverging process managed to took place within the mountain system, the mountain system that is thought to be under heavy compression at that time? That's one of the points of the next post on the mechanism of Black Sea opening and the Crimean Mountains origin.

My science/technology-related thoughts, sometimes controversial, sometimes can be based on limited knowledge base, logic can be non-perfect as well. I develop my vision in iterations. Don't take this blog as an attempt to convince anybody in anything.
Each post in this blog reflects my level of understanding of Tectonics of the Earth at the time the post was written; so, some posts may not necessarily be correct now.
