Based on the earthquake event data accumulated by the Turkish National Seismic Network between 2007 and 2013, the local magnitude (Richter, Ml) scale is calibrated for Turkey and the close neighborhood.

The Ganos Fault MONGAN earthquake monitoring network data presents significant opportunities and challenges for earthquake detection, location and magnitude calculations, source mechanism solutions, and discovery of fault zone waves. This study consists mostly of primary data analysis and seismological evaluations. While stations located in a local area allow the discovery of earthquakes at micro earthquake level, they create significant difficulties in determining the source parameters of these earthquakes. Extracting small earthquakes from continuous data shows that special strategies need to be developed. Network data revealed the presence of many earthquakes with magnitude M
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
