Özet:

 


Tsunamis are one of
the most dreadful natural disasters; they could cause abysmal damage to all
kind of lives in the hinterland within instantly. It is a major right-lateral
moving fault that runs along the tectonic boundary between the Eurasian Plate
to the north and the Anatolian Plate to the south. The western segment of the North
Anatolian Fault splits into three main branches. The northern one of NAF is
generally subdivided in several subsegments that have been the source of
frequent large historical earthquakes. The Sea of Marmara coasts is located on
the western extension of the NAFZ which is one of the most important active
faults with strike-slip characteristics, which are not likely to generate
tsunami. However, in the light of tsunami catalogs based on historical
documents, it is possible to say that Sea of Marmara has tsunamigenic potential.
The İstanbul shorelines, Gemlik Bay, Kapıdağ N-NE shores, Gelibolu, Hersek
Peinsula and Gulf of İzmit are one of the most significant geohazards in Sea of
Marmara due to the tsunami effect.
