Collaborative Research-Basin evolution along continental transforms: Nested Hi- Resolution Mutlichannel Survey in the Marmara Sea, Turkey

研究所将通过研究北安纳托利亚断层系统，调查马尔马拉海地壳变形随时间的演变。这些结果将对了解该地区的地震频率和预测产生影响，因此具有很高的社会意义。PI将从马尔马拉海东部的尤因号研究船收集高分辨率MCS剖面网格，网格的一半间隔为1-2公里，以破译该地区的详细地层。该项目将与土耳其、意大利和希腊科学家合作开展。

The PIs will investigate the evolution over time of crustal deformation in the Sea of Marmara by studying the North Anatolian fault system. The results will have implications for understanding earthquake frequency and prediction in the area and thus has high societal relevance. The PIs will collect a grid of high-resolution MCS profiles from R/V Ewing within the eastern Marmara Sea, with half the grid at 1-2 km spacing to decipher a detailed stratigraphy of the area. The project will be carried out in collaboration with Turkish, Italian and Greek scientists.
