Fig. 6From: Stress change generated by the 2019 İstanbul–Silivri earthquakes along the complex structure of the North Anatolian Fault in the Marmara SeaPanel–I show the snapshots of the seismic activity up to the given date-time stamp on the individual map. a Seismic activity up to M4.7 foreshock, b M5.8 mainshock c, and d M4.1 aftershocks. Panel–II shows the current stress and stress change on the fault surfaces in response to M4+ earthquakes given in Panel–I. a Pre-Coulomb stress, b M4.7 foreshock on September 24, c the M5.8 mainshock on September 26, d and e M4.1 aftershocks on September 26, 2019, f) the ratio between the total stress change in response to M4+ earthquakes and pre-Coulomb stress. The slip distribution of the source faults was selected k-square for this figure.
