Within the framework of active tectonics research Technologies, studies are generally focused upon hazards of seismic origin carrying out research and project based activities in the areas listed below:
Multidisciplinary Monitoring and Modeling Geologic Hazards
- Monitoring and modeling Earthquake, Tsunami, Landslide, Volcano and Geothermal Phenomena
- Probabilistic/Definitional Seismic Risk Analyses at Provincial and National Level
- Geologic Risk analyses for Nuclear, Geothermal Powerplants, Dams, Bridges, Tube Passage and Similar Structures
Seismic Research
- Seismotectonic Research
- Seismic Source Modeling
- Crust Deformations, Fault Slip Velocity
- Earthquake recurrence and stress interaction, long term earthquake forecasting
- Paleoseismology, Structural Geology
Postseismic Emergency Observations
- Real time After-Shock Studies
- Geodesic Deformation Monitoring (GPS, PSinSAR, SAR, LİDAR)
- Coulomb Stress Modeling and Aftershock Hazard
- Surface Fracture and Active Fault Mapping
Active Tectonics Research Technologies Strategic Business Unit carries out its activities as a team of 12 people including 25% Ph.D. 41% M.Sc. researchers and technicians. Cooperation network includes state organizations, governorships and foreign research centers and universities within the framework of EC Frame Programs.
