Nearest GNSS Stations

Stations in the predicted 2 cm displacement radius.

GNSS Data (standard-rate)

Data for stations in the predicted 2 cm displacement radius are available here at a 15s and 30s sample interval.

GNSS Data (high-rate)

1Hz high-rate data for BSHM and ARUC are available from CDDIS.

GNSS Data

Data from IGS stations in the region are available via EUREF Permanent Network website.

ESN1 Strain

Borehole strainmeter plots for ESN1. Note that the magnitude is overestimated because the epicenter was farther than the 500 km limit of the dynamic strain model.

ESN1 Areal and Shear Strain

Detrended time series strain plots showing co-seismic offset.

Borehole Strain Data

Borehole strainmeter data will be available here.

Creep

Triggered creep on the North Anatolian Fault near Ismetpasa. These creep events were triggered by the S-wave arrival from the recent M7.8 and M7.5 earthquakes in Southeast Turkey.
