Detailed knowledge of fault geometry is important for accurate seismic hazard assessment.
The Gulf of Aqaba, which corresponds to the southern termination of the 1200‐km‐long …

Abstract The Gulf of Aqaba is known for its high seismic activity in Egypt and the Middle East.
An inversion technique was applied to 113 earthquakes of magnitude 2.5 to 7.2 to distinct …

Nuweiba is located on the western coast of the Gulf of Aqaba (GoA), which represents the
southern part of the Gulf of Aqaba-Dead Sea transform fault (GoA-DST). The GoA is …

To determine whether recent seismicity around the High Dam Lake (Lake Nasser) in the
Aswan region is induced or triggered by the lake reservoir or is of natural origin, we …

Large earthquakes have affected Gulf of Aqaba with magnitudes ranging from 6 to 7.3 as
examples in years 1068, 1212, 1588 AD during historical records. In recent seismicity, a …

Several seismological and paloseismolgical studies and historical reports have indicated
that Gulf of Aqaba is characterized by higher seismicity than any other seismogenic sources …

A sequence of small-to-moderate terrifying earthquakes occurred in the northern part of the
State of Kuwait on November 15, 2019. These earthquakes have certainly been recorded by …

Here, we describe a technique for probabilistic seismic hazard assessment based on a
combination of a characteristic earthquake model and an areal seismic source model. One …

Abstract The Gulf of Aqaba is considered one of the most seismotectonically active regions
in the Middle East. This study analyzes the seismic activity from 1983 to 2018 to investigate …

This study is an extension of the previous works in the field of seismic hazard assessment in
Egypt with the aim of making the results more accurate and effective, in view of the worst …
