Zusammenfassung |
The 17 August 1999 İzmit Mw=7.4 and the 12 November 1999
Düzce Mw=7.2 earthquakes caused a 150 km long surface rupture
in the western part of the North Anatolian Fault. The coseismic slips along
the fault line and the trace of the surface ruptures were studied in detail
in Barka (1999), Reilinger et al. (2000), Cakir et al. (2003a, b) and
Ergintav (2009) after the earthquakes. However, the basin to the east of
Sapanca Lake was a black hole for all investigations because there was no
geodetic network and no significant deformation that could be obtained by
using InSAR techniques. In this study, findings on the abovementioned basin
have been reinterpreted through a GPS network newly explored. This
interpretation shows coseismic slips of between 2–3 m, and links the
surface rupture to the main branch of the North Anatolian Fault (NAF) in the
east Sapanca basin. |
