GEOLOGICAL AND GEOMORPHOLOGIC ASYMMETRY ACROSS THE RUPTURE ZONESOF THE 1943 AND 1944 EARTHQUAKES ON THE NORTH ANATOLIAN FAULT:POSSIBLE SIGNALS FOR PREFERRED EARTHQUAKE PROPAGATION DIRECTION (2008)

In this study the east and west rupture directions of the 1943 and 1944 earthquakes on the North AnatolianFault (NAF) are hypothesized to represent, respectively, long term preferred propagation directions on the corresponding sections of the NAF. To test the above hypothesis, is studied geological and geomorphologic manifestations of structural asymmetry with respect to the active trace of the NAF along the 1943 and 1944sections.
