simulation of the first earthquake august 11, 2012 ahar-varzaghan using stochastic finite fault method
on 11th of august 2012 the region was surprisingly struck by a shallow mw 6.4 (usgs) earthquake with pure right-lateral strike-slip character only about 50 km north of the north-tabriz fault. an east-west striking surface rupture of about 20 km length was observed in the field by geological survey of iran. only 11 minutes later and about 6 km further nw a second shallow event with mw 6.2 occurr...
متن کاملRupture characteristics of the 2012 earthquake doublet in Ahar-Varzagan region using the Empirical Green Function method
On August 11, 2012,within several minutes, two shallow destructive earthquakes with moment magnitudes of 6.5 and 6.4 occurred in Varzagan, Azerbaijan-e-Sharghi Province, in the northwest of Iran In this study, the Empirical Green Function (EGF) method was used for strong ground motion simulationto estimate the source parameters and rupture characteristics of the earthquakes. To simulate the fir...
متن کاملAttenuation of Fourier spectra for 2012 Ahar–Varzaghan earthquakes, Northwestern Iran
In this research, we have used 102 strong motion recordings from 2012 Ahar-Varzaghan earthquakes (Mw=6.5 and Mw=6.3) to study the form of attenuation of shear wave Fourier amplitude spectra of those two events. The analysis is carried out in a broad-band frequency range from 0.1 to 20 Hz. A bilinear shape for geometrical spreading is assumed based on nonparametric regression of the data. The hi...
متن کاملfault plane determination of the 2012 august 11 ahar-varzaghan earthquakes based on h-c method
the study area locates between an active fault system of north anatolian in turkey and active alborz and zagros mountain ranges in iran. the total shortening concluded from arabia-eurasia collision with a rate of 22 mm/year across the ne persia is partitioned into two fault systems, right-lateral strike slip movements in the turkish-iranian plateau like north tabriz fault system an...
متن کاملApplication of landsat imageries for mapping post-earthquake landslide, case study: 2012 Ahar-Varzegan earthquake, NW Iran
The 2012 Ahar-Varzegan earthquake and its aftershocks have not only caused huge damage with a severe loss of life and property but also induced many geo-hazards with the major type of collapse, creep, slip, debris flow, and fallings that are generally considered as landslide in this study which can cause continuous threats to the affected region. in this study, a semi-automated geo-hazard detec...
