This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Au cours de la dernière centaine d’années, la faille nord-anatolienne (FNA) a déjà généré 9 séismes de magnitude supérieure à 7 en Turquie. Dans cette thèse nous investiguons la faille de Ganos qui est le segment occidental de la FNA. Cette faille fût responsable du séisme de Mürefte du 9 août 1912 (M 7.3). la faille de Ganos est visible en surface sur 45-km alors que le reste est en mers Egée à l’est et Marmara à l’ouest. Cette faille de Ganos forme la section occidentale d’une large zone en « step-over » qui correspond au bassin losangique (pull-apart) de Marmara où le séisme de Kocaeli de 1999 fût localisé dans sa partie est. Les deux extrémités des ruptures de 1912 et de 1999 définissent une lacune sismique dans la mer de Marmara. Des analyses géomorphologiques sur les 45-km à terre de la faille de Ganos ont permis de décrire des structures typiques des failles en décrochement (ex : pull-apparts, bombements, step-over, rides de compression et décalage de rivières). La section à terre de la faille de Ganos est d’azimut ~N68°E, segmentée en deux step-over extensifs au niveau de Gölcük and Kavak. La combinaison entre les analyses morphologiques à terre et en mer suggèrent un minimum de 04 sous-segments limités par des complexités géométriques qui est de l’est à l’ouest comme suit : Le bassin central de Marmara, le coude de Ganos, step-over de Gölcük, step-over de Kavak and la dépression Saros. La dépression de Saros et le basin central de Marmara sont les plus importantes complexités structurales le long de la faille de Ganos et peuvent as ir comme barrière à la propagation de la rupture.Le déplacement cumulé calculé sur 69 localités, de la reconstruction tectonique permettent d’avoir un aperçu sur les caractéristiques de déformation du segment de Ganos à long terme et à court terme. Les mesures des déplacements de chenaux, des crêtes et une partie d’ancienne routes nous conduisent à évaluer un décalage entre 8 et 575m. Par ailleurs, nous suggérons un décalage (offset) plus important de 200m à 9000m basé sur la reconstruction du système hydrologique actuel. Une classification des décalages de chenaux montre 8 classes distinctes d’offset de glissement cumulée. Nous avons aussi utilisé les courbes de fluctuations du niveau de la mer noire afin de contraindre les période de fortes précipitations qui peuvent générer des incisions de chenaux. 5 groupes de glissement cumulé (de 70 à 300m) montrent une bonne corrélation avec un rehaussement du niveau de la mer conséquent à 4 ka, 10.2 ka, 12.5 ka, 14.5 ka et 17.5 ka. Les estimations du taux de glissement conduisent à un taux de glissement constant de of 17.9 mm/an pour les dernières 20.000 années et un taux de glissement variable de 17.7 mm/an, 17.7 mm/an, 17.9 mm/an et 18.9 mm/an pour les dernières 10.2 ka, 12.5 ka, 14.5 ka et 17.5 ka, respectivement.La paléosismologie a montré sur 03 sites (Güzelköy, Yeniköy and Yörgüç) des évidences de 8 événements sismiques, 5 datés entre 1043 – 835 BC et 1500 – 830 BC à Güzelköy et Yeniköy respectivement. Une meilleure datation a été contrainte pour les trois derniers événements à Güzelköy qui sont vraisemblablement des séismes en (1) 1343 ou 1344 (2) 1659 ou 1766b and (3) 1912. Nous suggérons deux scénarios de récurrence de séismes pour les derniers séismes en relation avec la faille de Ganos. Le scénario (1) conduit à une moyenne de récurrence de 285 ± 36 ans et englobe les événements de 1912, 1659, 1354/1344, 824, 484 alors que le scénario (2) est aussi valable si une récurrence non périodique des séismes est acceptée. La combinaison entre les analyses géomorphologiques et des résultats des tranchées conduit à un taux de glissement de la faille nord anatolienne au niveau de la région de Ganos. A Güzelköy deux paleo-chenaux présentement un décalage de 16 m et 21 m et conduit à un taux de 22.3 ± 0.5 mm/an pour ce dernier ~700 années et 26.9 mm/an pour les 781 dernières années respectivement. A Yeniköy des datations des couches les plus profondes montre de 46 ± 1 m de décalage de chenal et donnant ainsi un maximum de 17 mm/an de taux de glissement.Le 9 août 1912 la région de Mürefte a été secouée par un séisme (M = 7,3) a frappé le long de la faille de Ganos et a provoqué de graves dégâts (Io = X) entre Tekirdag et de Çanakkale. Un deuxième grand choc s'est produit le 13 Septembre 1912 (M = 6,8) avec une zone épicentrale à l'ouest du choc principal, causant des destruction Io = VII à l'ouest de dommages Gaziköy et le long de la péninsule de Gallipoli. Des rupture en surface ont été enregistrées le long de la totalité des 45-km de la section en surface. Nous avons déterminé un glissement maximum de 5,5 m qui a été précédemment suggéré à 3 m par Ambraseys & Finkel et al. (1987). Nous prolongeons les mesures de glissement de Altunel et al. (2004) à partir de 31 localités à 45 avec une meilleure répartition le long de la faille. La distribution d’offsets indique qu'une certaine partie de la rupture est au large, c'est à dire dans la baie de Saros et Mer de Marmara.73 enregistrement de sismogrammes historiques ont été collectés pour les événements du 9 août, 10 août et le 13 Septembre 1912. Des paires comparables ont été numérisées à l'aide du logiciels TESEO. La modélisation et deconvolution de la forme d'ondes sismiques a permis la récupération d'une fonction temps source en utilisant les événements du 13 Septembre et du 9 Août et fourni une fonction temps source de 40 secondes pendant le tremblement de terre du 9 août. Considérant une propagation unilatérale de la rupture de 3 km/s, cette durée implique longueur de rupture de 120 km, cohérente avec la dimension du séisme (Mw 7.4). Les polarités P des ondes à 5 stations et des N68°E d’azimut de faille nous permet de déduire un mécanisme au foyer pour l’événement du 9 aout. L'ampleur du choc Septembre 13 exige 30 ± 10 km de rupture de surface et des contraint la terminaison ouest pour les 120 ± 20km de longueur de la rupture du 9 Août. Prenant en compte les deux événements, une position de l'épicentre dans la baie de Saros pour le choc du 13 septembre de 150 ± 20 km de longueur totale de rupture et s'étendrait de Saros en propageant vers l’est et rejoignant ainsi le bassin de Marmara central, en accord avec la complexité géométriques importantes le long de cette section de la faille nord-anatolienne. Par conséquent, la terminaison est de la rupture du 09 aout 1912 et la terminaison ouest de la rupture de 1999 impliquent un minimum de 100-km de lacune sismique dans la mer de Marmara. Cette longueur de faille suggère un séisme de magnitude M>7 qui devra être pris en compte dans l’évaluation du risque sismique de la région d’Istanbul.

Book excerpt: The North Anatolian Fault Zone (NAFZ) in Turkey is a major continental strike-slip fault, 1200 km long and with a current slip rate of 25 mm/yr. Historical records show that the NAFZ is capable of producing high-magnitude earthquakes, activating different segments of the fault in a westward progression. Currently, the NAFZ poses a major seismic hazard for the city of Istanbul, which is situated close to one of the two strands into which the fault splays in northwestern Turkey. Understanding of fault zone structure and properties at depth is essential to constrain where deformation occurs within the lithosphere and how strain localises with depth. In fact, geodynamic models explaining surface deformation require knowledge of the width and depth extent of the fault zone in both the crust and upper mantle. In this framework, this thesis aims to provide better constraints on fault zone geometry within the lithosphere. To achieve this objective P and S wave teleseismic tomography have been applied to the data recorded by a dense array of broadband seismic stations (DANA, Dense Array for Northern Anatolia); through teleseismic tomography it was possible to image the NAFZ structure in both the crust and uppermost mantle. In addition, joint inversion i of P-wave teleseismic data and local earthquake data collected using the same array provided a greatly improved resolution within the upper 20 km of the crust. Results from this work highlighted the presence of a shear zone associated to the northern branch of the NAFZ in the study area. The fault zone appears to be 15 km wide within the upper crust and narrows to

This book was released on 2021-06-22 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Earthquakes and tsunamis are devastating geohazards with significant societal impacts. Most recent occurrences have shown that their impact on the stability of nations–societies and the world geopolitics is immense, potentially triggering a tipping point for a major downturn in the global economy. This Special Publication presents the most current information on the causes and effects of some of the modern and historical earthquake–tsunami events, and effective practices of risk assessment–disaster management, implemented by various governments, international organizations and intergovernmental agencies. Findings reported here show that the magnitude of human casualties and property loss resulting from earthquakes–tsunamis are highly variable around the globe, and that increased community, national and global resilience is significant to empower societal preparedness for such geohazards. It is clear that all stakeholders, including scientists, policymakers, governments, media and world organizations must work together to disseminate accurate, objective and timely information on geohazards, and to develop effective legislation for risk reduction and realistic hazard mitigation–management measures in our globally connected world of today.

Book excerpt: This book examines historical evidence from the last 2000 years to analyse earthquakes in the eastern Mediterranean and Middle East. Early chapters review techniques of historical seismology, while the main body of the book comprises a catalogue of more than 4000 earthquakes identified from historical sources. Each event is supported by textual evidence extracted from primary sources and translated into English. Covering southern Rumania, Greece, Turkey, Lebanon, Israel, Egypt, Jordan, Syria, and Iraq, the book documents past seismic events, places them in a broad tectonic framework, and provides essential information for those attempting to prepare for, and mitigate the effects of, future earthquakes and tsunamis in these countries. This volume is an indispensable reference for researchers studying the seismic history of the eastern Mediterranean and Middle East, including archaeologists, historians, earth scientists, engineers and earthquake hazard analysts. A parametric catalogue of these seismic events can be downloaded from www.cambridge.org/9780521872928.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given the tremendous toll in human lives and attendant economic losses, it is appropriate that scientists are working hard to understand better earthquakes, with the aim of forecasting and, ultimately, predicting them. In the last decades increasing attention has been paid to the coseismic effects on the natural environment, creating a solid base of empirical data for the estimation of source parameters of strong earthquakes based on geological observations. The recently introduced INQUA scale (Environmental Seismic Intensity-ESI 2007 Scale) of macroseismic intensity clearly shows how the systematic study of earthquake surface faulting, coseismic liquefaction, tsunami deposits and other primary and secondary ground effects can be integrated with 'traditional' seismological and tectonic information to provide a better understanding of the seismicity level of an area and the associated hazards. At the moment this is the only scientific means of equating the seismic records to the seismic cycle time-spans extending the seismic catalogues even to tens of thousands of years, improving future seismic hazard analyses. This Special Publication covers some of the latest multidisciplinary work undertaken to achieve that aim. Eighteen papers from research groups from all continents address a wide range of topics related both to palaeoseismological studies and assessment of macroseismic intensity based only on the natural phenomena associated with an earthquake.

Book excerpt: This edited book is based on the papers accepted for presentation during the 2nd Springer Conference of the Arabian Journal of Geosciences (CAJG-2), Tunisia, in 2019. Major subjects treated in the book include geomorphology, sedimentology, and geochemistry. The book presents an updated unique view in conjugating field studies and modeling to better quantify the process-product binomial unusual in geosciences. In the geomorphology section, 24 papers deal with topics related to fault slip and incision rates, soil science, landslides and debris flows, coastal processes, and geoarcheology, and geoheritage. Under the sedimentology section, 34 papers including stratigraphy, and environmental, tectonic, and diagenetic processes, together with evolutionary, biostratigraphic, and paleo-environmental significance of paleontology are presented. Additionally, this section also contains papers on marine geosciences, from molecular proxies related to climate to geophysical surveys. Last but not least, the third section on geochemistry is composed of 26 papers that are focused on sedimentary geochemistry and mineralogical characterization, magmatic and metamorphic processes and products, and the origin and exploration of mineral deposits. This book resumes the current situation related to the abovementioned topics mainly in the Mediterranean realm. The volume book is of interest to all researchers, practitioners, and students in the fields of geomorphology, sedimentology, and geochemistry, as well as those engaged in environmental geosciences, soil science, stratigraphy and paleontology, geoarcheology and geoheritage, marine geosciences, petrology, metallogenesis, and mineral deposits.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The destructive force of earthquakes has stimulated human inquiry since ancient times, yet the scientific study of earthquakes is a surprisingly recent endeavor. Instrumental recordings of earthquakes were not made until the second half of the 19th century, and the primary mechanism for generating seismic waves was not identified until the beginning of the 20th century. From this recent start, a range of laboratory, field, and theoretical investigations have developed into a vigorous new discipline: the science of earthquakes. As a basic science, it provides a comprehensive understanding of earthquake behavior and related phenomena in the Earth and other terrestrial planets. As an applied science, it provides a knowledge base of great practical value for a global society whose infrastructure is built on the Earth's active crust. This book describes the growth and origins of earthquake science and identifies research and data collection efforts that will strengthen the scientific and social contributions of this exciting new discipline.
