Özet

Structural data obtained from fault surfaces in the Bozburun Peninsula, southwest T & uuml;rkiye indicate that the previously known active normal faults are indeed strike-slip structures. The configuration of left- and right-lateral strike-slip segments and lineaments observed from high-resolution satellite images, plus the evaluation of available focal mechanism solutions of the earthquakes having less than 30 km depth around Bozburun Peninsula, show that the study area is under influence of the left-lateral Ptolemy-Pliny-Strabo Fault Zone.
