Sea level changes affect seismicity rates in a hydrothermal system near Istanbul
Small stress changes such as those from sea level fluctuations can be large enough to
trigger earthquakes. If small and large earthquakes initiate similarly, high‐resolution …

Long‐lasting seismic repeaters in the Central Basin of the Main Marmara fault
Abstract The Main Marmara Fault which crosses the whole Marmara Sea is a significant
seismic gap along the North Anatolian Fault. Here we show that nine long‐lasting strike‐slip …

Interseismic strain build-up on the submarine North Anatolian Fault offshore Istanbul
Using offshore geodetic observations, we show that a segment of the North Anatolian Fault
in the central Sea of Marmara is locked and therefore accumulating strain. The strain …

A unified earthquake catalogue for the Sea of Marmara Region, Turkey, based on automatized phase picking and travel-time inversion: Seismotectonic implications
The Marmara section of the North Anatolian Fault Zone (NAFZ) is late in its seismic cycle
and can be expected to produce a magnitude M up to 7.4 earthquake during the next …
