(Springer, 2021)
Mt. Nemrut (Nemrut volcano or caldera) is a quiescent Quaternary volcano situated in Eastern Anatolia (Turkey) near the western shore of Lake Van. The onset of Nemrut volcanism comprised lava flows and the formation of ...
A case study for determination of seismic risk priorities in Van (Eastern Turkey)
(Techno-Press, 2021)
Lake Van Basin, located in Eastern Turkey, is worth examining in terms of seismicity due to large scale losses of property and life during the historical and instrumental period. The most important and largest province in ...
