Southern Türkiye faced widespread catastrophic destruction by two devastating earthquakes on the same day. As occurred at 04:17 (M w = 7.7, Pazarcık, Kahramanmaraş) and 12:30 7.6, Elbistan, 6 February 2023, neighbouring active fault systems were broken in succession between Hatay Malatya provinces region. The first earthquake, one of largest this region during last century, caused major fatalities damage to infrastructure buildings, produced large-scale seismo-gravitational surface...
On February 6, 2023, southern Türkiye was struck by two large earthquakes at 01:17 UTC (Mw=7.8, Pazarcık, Kahramanmaraş) and 10:30 (Mw = 7.6, Elbistan, Kahramanmaraş), causing severe damage the complex junction of Dead Sea Fault (DSF), Cyprus Arc East Anatolian Zone (EAFZ). The ruptures propagated along several known strands southwestern termination EAFZ, main Pazarcık Karasu valley faults, Çardak-Sürgü fault. Here we present high-resolution mapping entire coseismic surface rupture an...

On the 6th of February 2023, Mw 7.7 Pazarcık (Kahramanmaraş) and 7.6 Ekinözü earthquakes that occurred in Türkiye are devastating earthquake series filled existing seismic gaps on East Anatolian Fault Zone same day. The first caught most people their sleep 9 h later, a second one was triggered, ending up with more than 50k death toll, widespread damage to buildings, massive landslides.

Travertine deposits reflect some aspects of the regional tectonics because close association between travertine and active fractures, that later which provide conduits along travertine-depositing waters may rise. Fissure-ridge travertines form above extensional fissures are located in hanging walls normal faults, step-over zones fault segments, or recently active) volcanic provinces. Numerous inactive fissure-ridge faults Denizli Basin. A typical comprises a central fissure its long axis...
The mechanical discontinuities in the upper crust (i.e., faults and related fractures) lead to uprising of geothermal fluids Earth’s surface. If are enriched Ca2+ HCO3-, masses CaCO3 travertine deposits) can form mainly due CO2 leakage from thermal waters. Among other things, fissure-ridge-type deposits peculiar bodies made bedded carbonate that gently steeply dip away apical part where a central fissure is located, corresponding fracture trace intersecting substratum; these morpho-tectonic...
The northern end of the Dead Sea Fault (DSF) in Amik Basin (Southern Turkey) is investigated using palaeoseismology, archaeoseismology and geophysical prospecting to understand fault activity during Holocene. Archaeological sites are largely spread area crosses at least two them: ∼5000 BC Tell Sıçantarla ∼2000 ancient road. Detailed field investigations surveys tell, an road a Roman wall reveal 42.4 ± 1.5, 25 3.5 9 0.5 m cumulative left-lateral movement along yield average 6.07 mm yr−1 slip...
Abstract Fault-related calcite precipitates taken from different segments along the East Anatolian (SE Turkey) and Dead Sea (Israel) fault zones were investigated structurally, geochemically geochronologically. The results indicate major differences in nature of temporal relationship to faulting. In Düziçi Fault, calcite-filled veins hydraulic fractures precipitated co-seismically during three consecutive faulting events. Calcite at Har Zefiyya Fault was controlled by near-surface karst...
We investigate the palaeo earthquakes and slip rate on Pazarcık segment of East Anatolian Fault, which was involved in surface rupture 6 February 2023 Pazarcık–Kahramanmaraş earthquake (M w 7.7) provided insights into long-term behaviour this major continental fault. Palaeoseismological data from two trench sites reveal evidence for at least five ruptures Holocene Period. The historical AD 1114 is verified both but following event 1513 identified only one site. In addition, age difference...
Bu çalışma, Bursa ve çevresindeki diri fay uzanımlarının segment bazında ayrıntılı haritalanmasını paleosismolojik veriler ışığında deprem davranışlarının kapsamlı analizini konu almaktadır. İli, yoğun nüfus sanayi altyapısıyla Türkiye’nin stratejik ekonomik merkezlerinden biridir; dolayısıyla bölgenin riski açısından bütüncül değerlendirilmesi kritik öneme sahiptir. Ulubat Fayı’nın doğu segmentine yönelik analizler, yaklaşık 1855 yıldır sismik olarak suskun bir dönem geçirdiğini ortaya...
The 26 December 1939 Erzincan (Ms= 7.8) and 20 1942 Erbaa-Niksar 7.1) earthquakes created a total surface rupture more than 400 km between Erbaa on the middle to eastern sections of North Anatolian Fault. These two faulting events are separated by 10-km-wide releasing stepover, which acted like seismic barrier in 20th century. To understand behaviour this structurally complex section Fault, we undertook palaeoseismological trench investigations Kelkit Valley segment where there is little or...
The sinistral Malatya-Ovacık Fault Zone (MOFZ) is one of the outstanding intraplate deformation belts within Anatolia. 165-km-long, NE–SW-striking Malatya (MF), which constitutes southern section MOFZ, separated into five segments according to its surface geometry. These have evident morphotectonic features that reflect long- and short-term fault activity, such as morphologic structures offset by little 7 m much 7.3 km. This study provides results from first paleoseismological investigations...
Abstract U‐Th dating of carbonate veins in connection with active tectonics has recently been used as an attractive tool for constraining the absolute timing late Quaternary crustal deformations.
