Extended Data Fig. 3: Dilatation rate map and focal mechanisms of moderate earthquakes near the Eastern Anatolian Fault.

From: High normal stress promoted supershear rupture during the 2023 Mw 7.8 Kahramanmaraş earthquake

Extended Data Fig. 3

a, The dilatation rate obtained from a joint inversion of GNSS and InSAR data20 is depicted. Dilatational strain rates (positive values) are shown in red, while compressional strain rates (negative values) are shown in blue. The Amanos, Pazarcık, and Erkenek segments of EAF are highlighted by thick magenta, blue, and purple lines, respectively. Earthquakes19 with magnitudes greater than 3.7 and occurring within 25 km of these segments are denoted by black dots. Their moment tensor solutions are also shown and color-coded based on the type of faulting determined by the FMC package74,75. N, N-SS, SS-N in red: normal, normal with strike-slip component, strike-slip with normal component; R, R-SS, SS-R in blue: reverse, reverse with strike-slip component, strike-slip with reverse component, and SS in black: strike-slip. b, The classification of the focal mechanism is presented75. Circles labeled with their IDs correspond to the moment tensor solutions depicted in (a). Basemap in a generated with Generic Mapping Tools64.
