Abstract
The Cameli Basin and its surroundings are located in southwestern Anatolia, Türkiye, and are one of the tectonically active regions in western Türkiye. The Curie point depth of continental crust can help us to determine the regional tectonic and geothermal structures. The aeromagnetic magnetic data of the study region were used to determine the Curie Point Depth estimates. The fractal-based centroid method is used for this purpose. The fractal approach removes the effect of fractal magnetization in the power spectrum. The depth to the bottom of the deepest magnetic sources in the study region ranges between 6.9 and 14.05. The estimated thermal gradient varies from 41.28°C/km to 89.23°C/km and the average value is 58.59°C/km (580°C for magnetite). The distributions of earthquakes are compatible with NW-SE trending estimated Curie depth anomalies. Interpretation indicates that the depth to the Curie isotherm is considerably shallower than the Moho depth.
