New Directions in Seismic Hazard Assessment through Focused Earth Observation in the MARmara
SuperSITE
Work programme topics addressed: ENV.2012.6.4-2 Long-term monitoring experiment in geologically active regions of Europe prone to natural
hazards: the Supersite concept16 - FP7-ENV-2012-two-stage.
Project Coordinator: Prof. Dr. Nurcan Meral Özel
Project acronym: MarSite
B) The seismicity of the Marmara Region from combined catalogues of KOERI and TUBITAK (1964-2011, M≥2.5).
A) The occurrence years and possible locations of historical earthquakes .
Instrumental observation infrastructure of Marmara
The MARsite project proposes to identify the Marmara region as a ‘Supersite’ within European initiatives to aggregate on-shore, off-shore and space-based
observations, comprehensive geophysical monitoring, improved hazard and risk assessments encompassed in an integrated set of activities to respond to all
priorities identified in the ENV.2012.6.4-2 call.
OBJECTİVES
MARsite aims to: 1) harmonize geological, geophysical, geodetic and geochemical observations to
provide a better view of the post-seismic deformation of the 1999 Izmit earthquake (in addition to the post-seismic signature of previous earthquakes),
2) investigate loading of submarine and inland active fault segments and transient pre-earthquake signals, related to stress loading with different tectonic properties in and around Marmara Sea.
3) explore earthquake/landslide triggering mechanisms and tsunami hazard modelling.
4) obtain rapid source-mechanism solutions and slip models, 5) develop new algorithms for early warning and rapid-response studies, 6) establish a risk management cycle with the creation of a link between the scientific
community and end users. 7) to develop novel geo-hazard monitoring instruments including high-resolution
displacement meters, novel borehole instrumentation and sea-bottom gas emission and heat-flow measurement systems, in association with the relevant industrial sectors and SMEs.

MARsite will use the power of -dense seismological, geochemical and GPS networks-experts on PSInSAR and SBAS analysis-combination of the remote-sensing and ground-based data-developing and demonstration of new systems-Integration of different data sources, uses of data etc.-early warning and rapid response system for Istanbul-Real-time data provision during crisis period (e.g. aftershocks)
MARSiteThe monitoring of the 'Supersites' should be conducted through a fully integrated conceptual approach based on collaboration with existing monitoring networks and international initiatives, developing new instrumentation such as in-situ sensors, and aggregating space and ground-based observations (including from subsurface), and geophysical monitoring.
The project(s) will develop and demonstrate the next generation of geo-hazards monitoring/observing systems, and contribute to establishing comprehensive natural hazards observatories through a cross-cutting approach.
MARSiteThe projects will establish a chain from observations to end users. The outcomes will be
applied to the phases of the risk management cycle relevant for this region.

MARsite will adopt Advancing GEOSS Data Sharing Principles
• MARsite will adopt Advancing GEOSS Data Sharing Principles and will incorporate related GEOSS strategic targets defined as “Provide a shared, easily accessible, timely, sustained stream of comprehensive data of documented quality, as well as metadata and information products, for informed decision making….” in GEOSS Strategic Targets - Document 12 (Rev,1), page 8.
• • The high level Data Sharing Principles represents on of the foundations for GEOSS, and
their effective yet flexible implementation remains a major challenge. MARSite will be a good chance to experiment their application. The 10-year implementation plan sets out the GEOSS Data Sharing Principles:
• • There will be full and open exchange of data, metadata and products shared within
GEOSS, recognizing relevant international instruments and national policies and legislation
– MARSite partners will actively share their data among themselves, through suitable tools such as the shared repository on the project web site, and will experiment and tune the data sharing models and interfaces that will potentially be used for data sharing at large within the GEO Supersite iniziative
Outcomes of the MARsite project:
. Geodetic monitoring of 4D deformations in order to understand earthquake cycle processes, to develop probabilistic earthquake forecasting models and to constrain the seismic hazard models in the Marmara region;•High resolution data acquired by a new generation deep multidisciplinary complete digital borehole seismic station;•Rapid and quantitative ShakeMap scheme by implementing finite-source descriptions and calibrating with multiple geodetic/seismic data;•Characterization of activated and reactivated Deep-seated Gravitational Slope Deformations (DGSD) determined through the integration of geological and geomorphological analyses with high-resolution DInSAR;•Knowledge on the distribution of active structures in the Marmara Region and the amount of motion they localize;•Geophysical, seismological, physical and geochemical data from automatic sea-floor devices (e.g. OBS, Piezometers, acoustic station and multidisciplinary SN4-type observatory) including data from periodical cruises for water column sampling and laboratory analyses, for seafloor degassing measurements; and •Results on earthquake early-warning (EW) and rapid-response systems in the Marmara Region (Istanbul) with the addition of a pilot landslide monitoring and EW system and introduction of new space technologies for monitoring and assessment of vulnerabilities. •Therefore, MARsite will surely have an important impact on the regional response for seismic risk prevention, but also plays a scientific/technical significant role as a European supersite.
