摘要
Two M7.8 earthquakes struck southern and central Turkey on February 6, 2023, forming typical surface ruptures in Hatay Province. Earthquake surface raptures geometry and displacement characteristics were investigated in Karatas and Hassa regions. Preliminary results show that the rupture with strike of N5°E–N20°E extends over 40 km. Left-lateral strike-slip faulting developed with an average horizontal displacement of 50–60 cm and maximum horizontal displacement of 2 m. The earthquake development started on Narlı Fault, transferred to the main fault and propagated to south and north across the main fault of East Anatolian Fault Zone, which lead to the decreasing of the horizontal coseismic displacement in research area. © 2023 Peking University.
