A Deeper Look Into the 2021 Tyrnavos Earthquake Sequence(TES) Reveals Coseismic Breaching of an UnrecognizedLarge-Scale Fault Relay Zone in Continental Greece
Abstract:<p>Large magnitude (Mw &#8764; &#8805;6) earthquakes in extensional settings are often associated with simultaneous rupture of multiple normal faults as a result of static and/or dynamic stress transfer. Here, we report details of the coseismic breaching of a previously unrecognized large-scale fault relay zone in central Greece, through three successive normal fault earthquakes of moderate magnitude (Mw 5.7&#8211;6.3) that occurred over a period of &#8764;10 days … Show more
