Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the subsurface geometry and internal structures of a fissure-ridge travertine in Pamukkale, western Turkey, using GPR. The ridge was scanned in detail using GPR, and its subsurface geometry was modelled in three dimensions (3D). Illustration of the subsurface layout of fissure-ridge travertine would contribute to understanding the evolution of the ridge along the fissure; and further the understanding of near-surface fracture mechanics in the upper crust.
