3D structural controls of a high-enthalpy geothermal field in an extensional setting: the Kizildere geothermal field (Western Türkiye)

Abstract The Kızıldere Geothermal Field (KGF), situated at the eastern margin of the Büyük Menderes Graben, is the most productive high-enthalpy geothermal system in Türkiye, with reservoir temperatures exceeding 240 °C and an installed capacity of over 360 MW. Its heat is derived from crustal thinn...
