Turkey faces the reality of earthquakes every day. Recently, the earthquake storm in Balıkesir Sındırgı has turned eyes towards the statements of experts. Geologist Prof. Dr. Övgün Ahmet Ercan warned citizens on his social media account, stating that multi-storey buildings constructed on wet and loose ground in different regions of Turkey could pose serious danger during an earthquake.
Ercan mentioned that the tremors in buildings on such ground could "increase three to five times," and the structures could resonate, causing excessive shaking. He noted that this situation could increase the risk of collapse and urged citizens not to buy or rent homes in these areas.
LISTED UNSAFE DISTRICTS ONE BY ONE
Prof. Dr. Övgün Ahmet Ercan's post is as follows:
"Tire, Ödemiş, Torbalı, Aydın-Efeler, Manisa, İzmir (Bayraklı, İnciraltı, Bostanlı, Alaybey, Mavişehir, Çiğli), Balıkesir, Afyonkarahisar, İzmit, Istanbul (Ataköy, Bakırköy, Yeşilyurt, Avcılar, Büyükçekmece, Beylikdüzü, Haramidere, Esenyurt), Adapazarı, Tekirdağ, Bandırma, Yalova, Adana (Çukurova, Ceyhan), Mersin, Erzincan, Tokat, Amasya, Bursa-Nilüfer, Muğla-Fethiye; in our cities, multi-storey structures built on wet, loose, first-class agricultural land will amplify the tremors three to five times during an earthquake, causing the structure to bounce. Additionally, they will resonate and shake excessively, and those unable to withstand this will face the risk of collapse. Please do not buy homes in such places, and do not rent them either."
HERE ARE THE SAFEST REGIONS IN TURKEY
In response to a citizen's comment, "Professor, you have gone to the trouble, I wish you had written about the areas we could live in," Prof. Ercan listed the areas he considers safe as follows:
"The Black Sea coasts from Artvin to Kırklareli, all of Southeastern Anatolia, all of Central Anatolia, Thrace, Ankara as the capital, these are the safest places in Turkey. However, know that a fault line does not destroy; the resonance of the tremors coming from the earthquake focus with the structure does."
