| Abstract | The 2023 earthquake sequence in southeastern Türkiye, including the devastating magnitude 7.8 and 7.5 events, occurred along and around the East Anatolian Fault Zone. Studying this sequence provides a rare opportunity to improve understanding of how large continental earthquakes happen and how their source properties are controlled by mature active fault zones. The investigators will study the aftershock sequence in detail, with the aims to uncover the physical mechanisms that drive aftershocks, |
