Being a part of ongoing continental collision between the Arabian and Eurasian plates, the
Caucasus region is a remarkable site of moderate to strong seismicity, where devastating …

This work contributes to depict the current seismicity, fault kinematics, and state of stress in
the Greater Caucasus (territories of Georgia, Azerbaijan and Russia). We merged and …

A new algorithm has been developed in this study that can automatically determine regional
moment tensor (MT) and its centroid depth with real‐time waveforms; it can do this within 2 …

The Anatolian region is an area with very heterogeneous crustal structure accompanied by
large velocity contrasts. Despite the complexity of the region, the detailed crustal structure …

In 2013, a new network of broadband seismic stations was deployed in the Caucasus
region. Broadband displacement data are inverted for the seismic moment tensor of two …

Abstract NW Iran-SE Turkey is a tectonically active zone related to the Arabia-Eurasia
convergence, but the active stress state in this zone has not yet been clearly studied. To …

Strong ground motions caused by earthquakes with magnitudes ranging from 3.5 to 6.9 and
hypocentral distances of up to 300 km were recorded by local broadband stations and three …

Coulomb stress variations may trigger earthquakes, while the stress transfer process is not
clear. In this paper, Coulomb stress changes are investigated for the sequences of strong …

Abstract The Arabia‐Eurasia continental collision created the Caucasus Mountains and the
Anatolian and Iranian plateaus. Between the two plateaus, the Armenian Highland features …

Cross-correlation of 3years of ambient seismic noise recorded at 35 seismic stations
deployed in Caucasus region yields hundreds of short-period surface-wave phase-speed …
