Abstract
In this study, we demonstrate wavelet analysis as a method of delineating the boundaries of subsurface geological
structures. We applied wavelet transform to Bouguer anomaly data of Cilicia Basin. We have detected the borders
of the Cilicia Basin and proposed the tectonic model of this real complex structure using the wavelet transform.
Wavelet outputs of gravity anomalies indicate that various types geological units which shown to differ in terms
of densities separated. Also some lineaments of the basin was founded. The dominant direction of lineaments is
indicative to the direction of the generating tectonic forces (NE-SW). In the study area, three major lineaments
direction were expressed using wavelet transform. This three major lineaments meet one another to form a triple
junction at the Amik Basin near Antakya.
