Özet:

 In this study, the seismicity and the seismicity parameters of Balıkesir Province and its vicinity 38.50º-40.50ºN-26.00º-29.00ºE were determined. For this purpose, the earthquake of magnitude M3.0 data used, in this analysis were taken from Kandilli Observatory and Earthqauke Research Institutes earthquake catalog, for the time period from 1900 to 2020. For the entire study area, b, Dc and possible-reliable Mmax values were determined as b1.17, Dc2.22 and Mmax6.95 respectively. In order to make a detailed seismicity assessment and map the spatial distributions of the seismicity parameters, the study area was divided into subregions as 0. 5N x 0. 5E. The a value was calculated in the range of 3.63a7.49 and, the b value was calculated in the range of 0.73b1.55. It was observed that the Mmax values varied in the range of 4.9Mmax7.6. It is seen that earthquakes of 5.9Mw7.2 are possible for Balıkesir province and its vicinity, which are prominent in terms of seismicity in the study area, where seismicity is quite high.

 Bu çalışmada Balıkesir İli ve çevresinin 38.50º-40.50ºK-26.00º-29.00ºD depremselliği ve depremsellik parametreleri belirlenmiştir. Bu amaçla 1900-2020 yılları arasında meydana gelen M3.0 olan deprem verileri Kandilli Rasathanesi ve Deprem Araştırma Enstitüsü deprem kataloğundan alınmıştır. Çalışma alanının tamamı için b, Dc ve olası-güvenilir Mmak değeri sırası ile b1.17, Dc2.22 ve Mmak6.95 olarak belirlenmiştir. Detaylı depremsellik değerlendirilmesi yapılabilmesi ve depremsellik parametrelerinin uzaysal dağılımlarının haritalanabilmesi için çalışma alanı 0. 5Kx0. 5D olacak şekilde alt alanlara ayrılmıştır. a değeri 3.63a7.49, b değeri ise 0.73b1.55 aralığında hesaplanmıştır. Mmak değerlerinin ise 4.9Mmak7.6 aralığında değişim gösterdiği görülmüştür. Depremselliğin oldukça yüksek olduğu çalışma alanı içerisinde depremsellik açısından ön plana çıkan Balıkesir il merkezi ve yakın çevresi için 5.9Mw7.2 büyüklüğündeki depremlerin olası olduğu görülmektedir.
