    The Marmara Region is a rapidly deforming area with high seismic activity in the northwestern Turkey. In order to further understand the crustal structure in the region, we present results from receiver function analysis ...
  • Şahin, Esra. (Thesis (M.S.) - Bogazici University. Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute, 2013., 2013.)
    Turkey, a country of frequent earthquakes and with a coastline of 8333 km, is also exposed to the tsunamis, resulting in material loss for the country and its neighbors (Altınok, 1999). Many new investigations have been ...
  • Işık, Sezim Ezgi. (Thesis (M.S.) - Bogazici University. Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute, 2013., 2013.)
    The 3D P wave velocity model of upper and lower crust of the Marmara Region between 40.20 - 41.20 N and 26.50 - 30.50 E is obtained by tomographic inversion (Simulps) of 47034 P wave arrivals of local earthquakes recorded ...
  • Bakır, Mahmure Ezgi. (Thesis (M.S.) - Bogazici University. Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute, 2012., 2012.)
    The seismic background noise variation of BRTR array, composed of two sub arrays located in Ankara and in Kırıkkale-Keskin, has been investigated by calculating Power Spectral Density and Probability Density Functions for ...
  • Cengiz, Özlem. (Thesis (M.S.) - Bogazici University. Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute, 2012., 2012.)
    Magnetotelluric data at sixteen sounding locations along two parallel profiles at south Marmara region were collected to improve the understanding of the crustal electrical conductivity structure. The PW (~40 km) and PE ...
  • Korkusuz, Yasemin. (Thesis (M.S.) - Bogazici University. Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute, 2012., 2012.)
    Stress tensors with the aid of a large number of fault plane solutions provide important contributions for the evaluation of the seismotectonic setting of a region. In this study, recent earthquake activity at Ganos offshore, ...
  • Pündük, Pelin. (Thesis (M.S.) - Bogazici University. Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute, 2011., 2011.)
    The main function of a seismic network is to provide high quality data for monitoring seismic zones and seismic hazard analysis. In this study, a numerical simulation (SNES, Seismic Network Evaluation through Simulation) ...
  • Çakır, Ersin. (Thesis (M.S.) - Bogazici University. Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute, 2011., 2011.)
    Isparta Angle is a seismically active and complex zone in terms of tectonic and geologic features. A temporary seismic network consisting of nineteen three-component broadband stations were installed around Isparta Angle ...
  • Başarır, Nilay. (Thesis (M.S.) - Bogazici University. Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute, 2011., 2011.)
    Marmara Region has witnessed many destructive earthquakes where some of them caused tsunami. Examination of these earthquakes through analyzing of analog records is crucial for the interpretation of seismotectonics and to ...
  • Görgün, Ethem. (Thesis (M.S.) - Bogazici University. Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute, 2003., 2003.)
    The local magnitude, ML, for earthquakes of Western Turkey and surrounding regions are determined using synthetic Wood-Anderson seismograms derived from newly available broadband recording from the Boğaziçi University ...
  • Coşkun, Zeynep. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University. Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute, 2010., 2010.)
    Earthquake Alarms Systems, ElarmS, is designed with the goal of providing warning of forthcoming ground shaking during earthquakes. The event magnitude is found to scale with the maximum predominant period, τp max, which ...
  • Kahraman, Metin. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University. Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute, 2008., 2008.)
    Isparta Angle is located on southwestern Turkey and has a complex structure which is a consequence of collision between African and Anatolian plates. In order to further understand this complexity, we deployed a temporary ...
  • Güner, Gülçin. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University. Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute, 2010., 2010.)
    Triggering mechanism is described as the consequence of the stress transfer on the faults. Triggered earthquakes can either be close to the triggering one as well as far from it. The study done in this thesis is to search ...
