bilgiler ışığında yorumlanmıştır. Yapılan bu çalışma ile Saros Körfezi’nin batimetrik, stratigrafik ve yapısal ...
An earthquake of magnitude 6.6 (ML) and 7.2 (Mw) occurred at 13: 41 p.m. local time on October 23, 2011 in the western of the Ercek Lake and about 20 km away from the city center of Van, Turkey (EQE-KOERI in The October ...
The most commonly used well-logging methods for determining coal layers are radioactive (gamma ray, neutron and gamma-gamma) and electrical (resistivity, spontaneous potential and inductive polarization). Other methods ...
The frequency-dependent attenuation of shear waves in the crust is estimated by using two different methods based on the rate of time decay of coda-wave amplitude, Q(c)(-1), and the rate of decay of the S-wave to coda wave ...
In Western-Atakent (Istanbul), population density is increasing day by day and settlement areas are expanding. Soil properties and landslide conditions of these expanding regions must be absolutely examined. In the geophysics, ...
The November 27, 2005 Qeshm Island earthquake (M-w 6.0) occurred along the Zagros Thrust and Fold Belt which accommodates about half of the deformation caused by the Arabian and Eurasian Plates convergence. As typical for ...

Semi enclosed Marmara Sea is a passage between the Aegean Sea (Northeastern Mediterranean Sea) and the Black Sea. The Marmara Sea is connected to the Black Sea and Aegean Sea through the Istanbul Strait (Bosphorus) and ...
Earthquake ruptures perturb stress within the surrounding crustal volume and as it is widely accepted now these stress perturbations strongly correlates with the following seismicity. Here we have documented five cases of ...
The aims of this study are to estimate soil attenuation using alternatives to traditional methods, to compare results of using these methods, and to examine soil properties using the estimated results. The performances of ...
The East Anatolian Fault Zone is a continental transform fault accommodating westward motion of the Anatolian fault. This study aims to investigate the source properties of two moderately large and damaging earthquakes ...
In this paper, the Electrical Resistivity Tomography and magnetic methods, including Tilt Angle and Euler Deconvolution, have been used in a comperative manner to determine the lineaments and depths of buried archeological ...
Kahramanmaras and its surroundings are under the influence of East Anatolian and Dead Sea fault zones which have significance in the tectonics of Turkey. The long-term energy accumulation in these zones creates a very high ...
