Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

F017 SEISMIC HAZARD IN THE ISTANBUL REGION TURKEY – HOW TO STUDY A SUBMARINE FAULT Abstract 1 After the two disastrous earthquakes in 1999 the Istanbul-Marmara region appears threatened by the probable occurrence of one or more large earthquakes in the next few decades. As a response to this challenge the international scientific community reacted immediately proposing cutting edge projects in seismology space geodesy tectonics and marine geophysics. A French-Turkish research program was provided with important support and was achieved between 2000 and 2003. The outcome of that program summarized here demonstrates the relevance of an integrated study focused on
