A GIS-based earthquake damage assessment and settlement methodology

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented a GIS-based model for earthquake loss estimation for a district in Tehran, Iran, using the ground shaking effect of one of the region's most active faults, the Mosha Fault in a likely earthquake scenario.

First insights into the structure and environmental setting of cold-seep communities in the Marmara Sea

TL;DR: A brackish-water cold seep on the North Anatolian Fault (NAF) in the Marmara Sea was investigated with the Nautile submersible during the MarNaut cruise in 2007 as mentioned in this paper.

Seismic microzonation and earthquake damage scenarios for urban areas

TL;DR: In this paper, a methodology for seismic microzonation and earthquake damage scenarios may be considered as composed of two stages, in which the effects of local geological and geotechnical site conditions are taken into account based on site characterization with respect to representative soil profiles extending down to the engineering bedrock.

Analysis of earthquake parameters to generate hazard maps by integrating AHP and GIS for Küçükçekmece region

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the weight of common parameters that have an influence on the effects of earthquakes and determined the weights of the parameters that affect the earthquake ground motion at the study area and compared with a selected attenuation relation map.

Equations for Estimating Horizontal Response Spectra and Peak Acceleration from Western North American Earthquakes: A Summary of Recent Work

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide tables for estimating random horizontal component peak acceleration and 5 percent damped pseudo-acceleration response spectra in terms of the natural, rather than common, logarithm of the ground-motion parameter.

The active Main Marmara Fault

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented selections from and a synthesis of a high-resolution bathymetric, sparker and deep-towed seismic reflection data set recently acquired by the French Ifremer R.V. Le Suroit in an E-W deep trough that formed the northern half of the Sea of Marmara in NW Turkey.
