Seismic tomography of the North Anatolian Fault : New insights into structural heterogeneity along a continental strike-slip fault

Acknowledgments DANA (Dense Array for Northern Anatolia) is part of the Faultlab project, a collaborative effort by the University of Leeds, Boğaziçi University Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute (BU-KOERI), and Sakarya University. Major funding was provided by the UK Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) under grant NE/I028017/1. Equipment was provided and supported by the NERC Geophysical Equipment Facility (SEIS-UK). This project is also supported by Boğaziçi University Scientific Research Projects (BAP) under grant 6922 and Turkish State Planning Organization (DPT) under the TAM project, number 2007K120610. We are indebted to the Faultlab seismological fieldwork team members Sebastian Rost, Greg Houseman, David Thompson, Sandra Karl, Luke Jackson, Hannah Bentham, Ekbal Hussain, Selda Altuncu Poyraz, Uğur Teoman, Niyazi Türkelli, Metin Kahraman, Murat Utkucu, and Levent Gülen. Victoria Lane (SEIS-UK) provided invaluable technical and practical seismological assistance. The seismic data set can be found in the references.Peer reviewedPublisher PD
