...Recent earthquakes include the 1978 Tabas earthquake ( M 7.7, 15,000 deaths). In Turkey, the North Anatolian Fault, which stretches 800 km from east to west, has been hit by six M 7 class earthquakes every 1 to 10 years since the 1939 Erzincan earthquake ( M 8.0, 33,000 deaths), causing great damage. There have been many other major earthquakes on other faults as well. From [Earthquake Fault]... The first earthquake fault to be scientifically recorded was the Neodani Fault during the 1891 Nobi earthquake, and since then, about 12 clear examples have been known in Japan (table). Well-known examples around the world include the San Andreas Fault in the United States and the North Anatolian Fault in Turkey, and more than 100 faults on land have been scientifically reported to date. Investigations of many earthquake faults have shown that they are not faults that arose for the first time during an earthquake, but faults that existed before and have been reactivated, that is, active faults, and that the movement during an earthquake is in the same direction as the fault's past movement. ... *Some of the terms mentioned in the "North Anatolian Fault" are listed below.

…近年のものとしては1978年タバス地震(M7.7,死者1万5000)がある。トルコでは東西に800kmにわたって延びている北アナトリア断層上に,1939年エルジンジャン地震(M8.0,死者3万3000)以後,M7クラスの地震が1~10年おきに6回発生し,大被害を出している。この断層以外にも大地震は少なくない。… 【地震断層】より… 地震断層が科学的に記録されたのは,1891年濃尾地震のときの根尾谷断層が世界でも最初で,日本ではそれ以来明瞭なものが12例ほど知られている(表)。世界では,アメリカのサン・アンドレアス断層やトルコの北アナトリア断層などが有名で,これまでに陸上で100ヵ所以上の断層が科学的に報告されている。 多くの地震断層を調査した結果,それらは地震のときにはじめて生じた断層ではなく,もともと存在していた断層が再活動したもの,つまり活断層であり,また地震時の運動はその断層の過去の運動の向きと同じであることがわかった。… ※「北アナトリア断層」について言及している用語解説の一部を掲載しています。 出典|株式会社平凡社世界大百科事典 第2版について | 情報 |
