The calculations made have strengthened the possibility of earthquake occurncy on the Gölbaşı segment of EAFZ.
📌 3 Key Takeaways
🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:Major tectonics on the Kahramanmaraş region are the northern strand of EAFZ (Sürgü fault zone, Çardak segment, Savrun segment and Toprakkale segment) and the southern strand of EAFZ (Gölbaşı segment, Amanos sgment), Engizek Fault Zone, Kahramanmaraş Fault Zone and The Narlı segment of DSFZ.
📊
Key Findings & Data:An earthquake, occurred in Kahramanmaraş, 1795, is mentioned a manuscript named Divan-ı Hasmi which is found at Koyunoğlu Library in Konya.
💡
Conclusion & Impact:The calculations made have strengthened the possibility of earthquake occurncy on the Gölbaşı segment of EAFZ.
Major tectonics on the Kahramanmaraş region are the northern strand of EAFZ (Sürgü fault zone, Çardak segment, Savrun segment and Toprakkale segment) and the southern strand of EAFZ (Gölbaşı segment, Amanos sgment), Engizek Fault Zone, Kahramanmaraş Fault Zone and The Narlı segment of DSFZ. An earthquake, occurred in Kahramanmaraş, 1795, is mentioned a manuscript named Divan-ı Hasmi which is found at Koyunoğlu Library in Konya. According to manuscript the Mercalli Intensity of the earthquake has calculated as eight and the magnitude is seven. The calculations made have strengthened the possibility of earthquake occurncy on the Gölbaşı segment of EAFZ.
