Abstract
In this study, the finite-fault rupture properties of the North Aegean Sea earthquake of 24 May 2014 have been investigated by inverting the teleseismic P and SH body waveforms. The inversion results indicated that the earthquake was due to failure of three asperities all of which were located in the NE of the hypocentre indicating unilateral fault rupture. The asperity closest to the hypocentre was located below the depth of 10 km while the distant asperities were located above the depth of 10 km. The maximum slip amplitude and total seismic moment release were found to be 1.2 m and 2.180 x1019 Nm, respectively.
Özet
Bu çalışmada 24 Mayıs 2014 Kuzey Ege Denizi depreminin kırılma özellikleri telesismik P ve SH dalga şekillerikullanılarak araştırılmıştır. Ters çözüm sonuçları depremin iç merkezinin KD yönünde konumlanan üç faypürüzünün yenilmesi nedeniyle oluştuğu belirlenmiştir. Depremin iç merkezine en yakın pürüz 10 km derinliğinaltında konumlanmış şekilde bulunurken uzak pürüzler ise 10 km derinliğin üzerinde konumlanmış haldedir. Enbüyük kayma genliği ve toplam salınan sismik moment sırasıyla 1.2 m ve 2.180 x1019 Nm olarak bulunmuştur.
