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 ...

TIDAL TRIGGERING EVIDENCE OF INTERMEDIATE DEPTH EARTHQUAKES IN THE VRANCEA ZONE (ROMANIA) (2007)
Tidal triggering evidence of intermediate earthquakes in the Vrancea region (Romania) is investigated. The Vrancea seismic zone is located in the bend region of the South-Eastern Carpathians (45◦–46◦ N, 25.5◦–27.5◦E) and is known as one of the most active ...

PROGRESSIVE FAILURE ON THE NORTH ANATOLIAN FAULT SINCE 1939 BYEARTHQUAKE STRESS TRIGGERING (1997)
Ten M>=6.7 earthquakes ruptured 1,000 km of the North Anatolian fault (Turkey) during 1939-92, providing an unsurpassed opportunity to study how one large shock sets up the next. Weuse the mapped surface slip and fault geometry to infer the transfer of stress ...
