Aras Nehri Vadisi ve Yak?n Çevresinin Jeomorfolojisi (Ka??zman-Gaziler Aras?)

The purpose of this study, which covers the Aras River valley and its immediate surroundings, drained Kagizman Depression in Eastern Anatolia, Erzurum-Kars Section is to deal with development process river that settled region by incising Kars Plateau, geomorphological features, response tectonic movements area factors affecting morphological structure region. selected research both an important point terms relation tectonic-fluvial system valley, one Turkey's large rivers, so it remarkable. In units mainly terraces channel were mapped, areal metric distributions made, various maps sections created. field studies carried out, 3 terrace levels located at 10-25 m, 55-60 m 110-120 altitude from current riverbed determined. internal structures these terraces, are paleogeographic findings, generally composed coarse sediment mostly similar each other. Besides, River, presents a typical braided pattern study area, exhibits forced meandering due accumulation alluvial fans developing along main valley.
