Researcher expects a possible Earthquake in Yedisu district of Eastern Anatolia Province in Türkiye of Bingöl after continuous seismic activity and energy accumulation.
the last Earthquake in Yedisu event on May 1, 2003, with Depth of 15 kilometers (9.32 miles), which lasted about 17 seconds with size of 6.4. slip error responsible The geologist said it wasn’t the East Anatolian Rift, but rather a right-hand side-slip fault that ruptured perpendicular to the East Anatolia Rift. professor Faizi Banjul.
Bingol assessed recent aftershocks, noting that the energy released from the twin quakes hit Southeast Ten Provinces of Türkiye was 130 years old times stronger than one It happened in Italy in 2016, an outstanding Italian scientist mentioned.
Earthquakes of magnitude 7.7 and 7.6, centered in Kahramanmaras Province, 13 million people people in Adana, Adiyaman, Diyarbakir, Gaziantep, Hatay, Kilis, Malatya, Osmaniye and Şanlıurfa.
earthquakes of This size is not much common in Turkish is very uncommon all over the world. The expert notes that Kahramanmaraş disaster caused ediso region He is active. this region Where there are three panels – the Arabian plate in South, African Plate in West and the Anatolian Plate in the north – he meets.
K result of East breaks in sections up To Elazığ and Pütürge district of Malatya which caused Instability in the areaenergies of small active faults in Kayseri, Sivas and Malatya regions to the east of Konya increased. Inevitably, these large defects resulted in energy buildup. this caused new earthquake hits to start It is happening in this area. Because of these two rifts, thousands of Aftershocks have occurred within the East Anatolia Rifts, which are likely to continue for sometimes.
aftershocks
Confirming that they are still suffering from aftershocks of earthquakes in Elazig on January 24, 2020 Bingol said: “Aftershocks of These volumes can be sustained for Five to 10 years, and it’s basically going to be occur towards the south of Malatya, Adiyaman and Hatay. Apart from that, there are various drawbacks in Kayseri, as a result of the resulting continuous movements in Shivering of 4 and 4.5 degrees in the region. “
