| A sample study examining earthquake and landslide-induced tsunamis for the Marmara Sea was conducted by the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality earthquake and ground Investigation Directorate under the heading “simulation and damage analysis for tsunamis that may affect the coast of Istanbul” by Oyo Int from Japan. Co. in this context, 49 separate scenarios that could lead to a possible tsunami in the Sea of Marmara were examined. In these scenarios, earthquakes and fault movements on the northern and Southern branches of the North Anatolian Fault in the Marmara Sea, as well as sea floor movements that can occur in various combinations due to possible landslides (landslides) detected in various regions in the Marmara Sea, tsunami formation is modeled. 49 scenarios were produced from various versions of faults and landslides, and as a result of modeling studies, the largest wave height possible to form on the coast of Istanbul is 5.56 m. it was found that the coastal band that the highest wave will reach is a coastal line of up to 10 km on the eastern coast of Istanbul; the time of the tsunami to reach the coast is 8 minutes and the distance to progress on the coast is less than 150 meters. In modeling studies related only to fault motion, the largest wave height possible to occur off the coast of Istanbul is 4.71 m.; the coastal band that the highest wave will reach is 10km off the eastern coast of Istanbul. it is as long as; the time of the tsunami to reach the coast is 8 minutes and the distance of its progress on the coast is 50m. was calculated to be less than |
