Tectonic And Structural Characteristics Of Erzurum And Its Surroundings(Eastern Turkey): A Detailed Comparison Between Different Geophysical Parameters, Çağlar Özer, Serkan Öztürk, Eren Pamuk

Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences

The tectonic and structural properties of Erzurum and its surroundings have been investigated by evaluating the seismotectonic b - value, magnetic anomaly, edge detection analysis (total horizontal derivative (THDR) and tilt angle (TA)), Curie Point Depth (CPD), P-wave velocity (Vp), and Vp / Vs (S - wave velocity) ratio and by imaging the regional distributions of these parameters. For this purpose, all parameters have been combined to be able to reveal the new useful results on the study region and are presented for different locations and depths. The Vp values have been accompanied by high Vp / Vs ratios and …
