Abstract

In this study, the source parameters of the 100 earthquakes with magnitude M≥4.0 occurred in Turkey for years 2007 and 2008 have been determined by seismic moment tensor waveform inversion method using the near-field and regional waveforms. The source parameters of the earthquakes studied are consistent with the prevailing tectonic regime of the regions they occurred and their obtained sentroid depths support crustal thickening in Turkey from west to east. The study is considered to be making of a seismic moment tensor catalogue for Turkey and helpful for the future seismotectonic studies.

Özet

Bu çalışmada 2007 ve 2008 yıllarında Türkiye’de meydana gelmiş büyüklüğü M≥4.0 olan 100 depremin kaynak parametreleri, sismik moment tensör dalga şekli ters çözüm yöntemiyle yakın-alan ve bölgesel dalga şekilleri kullanılarak bulunmuştur. Çalışılan depremlerin kaynak parametreleri, bu depremlerin oluştukları bölgelerdeki hakim tektonik rejime uyum göstermekte ve bulunan sentroid derinlikleri Türkiye’de batıdan doğuya kabuksal kalınlaşmayı desteklemektedir. Çalışmanın, Türkiye için bir sismik moment tensör katalogu oluşturulmasında ve gelecekteki sismotektonik çalışmalar için yararlı olacağı düşünülmektedir.
