To verify the existence of a preparatory process for the 6 February 2023, Mw 7.8 Kahramanmaras earthquake, southern Turkiye, we analyze the temporal evolution of seismic catalog information for similar to 7500 earthquakes with magnitudes M-L >= 1.5, which occurred along the main segments of the East Anatolian Fault (EAF) since 2014. We find the...

How, when and where large earthquakes are generated remain fundamental unsolved scientific questions. Intercepting when a fault system starts deviating from its steady behavior by monitoring the spatio-temporal evolution and dynamic source properties of micro-to-small earthquakes can have high potential as tool for identifying the preparatory...
