Soft-Sediment Deformation Structures Interpreted as Seismites in the Kolankaya Formation, Denizli Basin (SW Turkey)
The NW-trending Denizli basin of the SW Turkey is one of the neotectonic grabens in the Aegean extensional province. It is bounded by normal faults on both southern and northern margins. The basin is filled by Neogene and Quaternary terrestrial deposits. Late Miocene- Late Pliocene aged Kolankaya formation crops out along the NW trending Karakova uplift in the Denizli basin. It is a typical flu...
متن کاملUsing S/P Amplitude Ratios to Constrain the Focal Mechanisms of Small Earthquakes
We test whether S-wave/P-wave amplitude ratio data can improve the computed focal mechanisms of small earthquakes, using events from two southern California aftershock sequences. The observed S/P ratios are generally consistent with the expected mechanisms, implying that S/P ratios can in fact be useful in constraining the focal mechanisms of small events. However, we also find that noise in th...
متن کاملTsunami-generated magnetic fields may constrain focal mechanisms of earthquakes
A geomagnetic observatory named SFEMS is being operated on the deep seafloor in the northwest Pacific since August, 2001. SFEMS is capable of measuring both scalar and vector geomagnetic fields as well as the seafloor instrument's precise attitudes, which makes it a powerful tool in detecting the so-called oceanic dynamo effect. It was found that SFEMS captured clear magnetic signals generated ...
متن کاملEvaluation of cancer records from 2000-2004 in Denizli, Turkey.
Objective information about cancer incidence is important for planning control programs. We examined the distribution of cancer cases recorded in Denizli province, Turkey. A total of 2185 cancer cases reported to the Denizli Province Health Ministry's Cancer Early Diagnosis Center during the years 2000-2004 were evaluated for sociodemographic characteristics, cigarette use, family history, and ...
متن کاملObservations on regional variability in ground-motion amplitudes for small-to-moderate earthquakes in North America
The regional variability in earthquake ground-motion amplitudes for a given magnitude and distance in western North American environments was examined using ShakeMap data from small-to-moderate events. The abundance of data for small-tomoderate events in California allows average ground-motion levels, as a function of magnitude and distance, to be resolved with a high level of confidence. Groun...
