Abstract A comparison of published incremental fault slip rates from four major strike‐slip faults with the proximity and number of other active faults in the surrounding plate boundary systems shows that the behavior of the primary fault is correlated with the structural complexity of its tectonic setting.

Estimation of successive coseismic vertical offsets using coeval sedimentary events – application to the southwestern limit of the Sea of Marmara's Central Basin (North Anatolian Fault) [PDF]
In the deep part of the Sea of Marmara (Turkey), the sedimentation developing upon the North Anatolian Fault is strongly influenced by the associated seismic activity, through gravity reworking (fluidized landslides) and tsunamis.

Segmentation and Holocene Behavior of the Middle Strand of the North Anatolian Fault (NW Turkey)
Abstract The North Anatolian Fault (NAF) in the Marmara region is composed of three parallel strands all separated by ∼50 km. The activity of the middle strand, which borders the southern edge of the Marmara Sea, is much debated because of its present‐day very low seismicity. This contrasts with historical, archeological and paleoseismological evidence,

Tsunami potential source in the eastern Sea of Marmara (NW Turkey), along the North Anatolian Fault system [PDF]
Based on morphobathymetric and seismic reflection data, we studied a large landslide body from the eastern Sea of Marmara (NW Turkey), along the main strand of the North Anatolian Fault, one of the most seismically active geological structures on Earth ...

The structural evolution of pull‐apart basins in response to changes in plate motion
The evolution of a pull‐apart basin can be considerably influenced by a change of plate motion that introduces transtension in the basin. Identifying structures of this type of pull‐apart basin evolution are asymmetric triangular basins and wide principal displacement zones with oblique‐normal faults.

Turkish voter response to government incompetence and corruption related to the 1999 earthquakes [PDF]
The two major earthquakes which struck northwestern Turkey in 1999, caused enormous amounts of death and destruction, and exposed rampant government corruption involving construction and zoning code violations, as a factor magnifying the disaster.

An Assessment of the Cultivation Potential and Suitability for Human Consumption of Mediterranean Mussels (Mytilus galloprovincialis Lamarck, 1819) from the Yalova Coast of the Marmara Sea [PDF]
This study aimed to determine into potential suitability of juvenile Mediterranean mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis) for cultivation and human consumption collected from various stations (Kapaklı, Çınarcık, Koru, and Deveboynu) along the Yalova coast of

A Multi‐Objective Stochastic Model for an Earthquake Relief Network
Earthquake relief network involves storage and distribution of relief aid to people in need. In this paper, a new stochastic multi‐objective mixed integer mathematical model is developed and implemented in Kadikoy municipality of Istanbul, Turkey in order to configure part of the earthquake relief network.
