| Zusammenfassung |
| The Ismetpasa segment of the North Anatolian Fault is one of the rare places in the world where
aseismic creep event has been observed. This segment was ruptured during
both the 1944, Mw=7.2, Gerede and 1951, Mw=6.9, Kursunlu earthquakes. After
these earthquakes, the segment has not experienced a major earthquake
anymore. Starting from 1957, many studies using different technologies have
been carried out to determine the creep rate of the segment. All these
studies until 2002 revealed that the creep movement of the segment slowed
down. The new observation campaign of the Ismetpasa geodetic network shows
that the Ismetpasa segment has ceased the slowing trend and started to gain
speed. This might be interpreted as an increasing earthquake risk for this
segment. |
