The ground deformation in the East Mediterranean-Red Sea region is mainly controlled by the activities at the plate boundaries within this region, as the Nubian, Arabian, Sinai, and Anatolian plates are interacted. This region includes the Red Sea, Gulf of Aqaba, Dead Sea Transform Fault (DSTF), and the collision zone at the Cyprus arc system, which are representing the boundaries between interacting plates within this region. In this chapter, we are reviewing the published rates of ground deformation and seismic hazard of this region. Moreover, we are presenting a block motion model for the East Mediterranean region based on a combined solution of geodetic measurements for 397 GPS sites which are located in Sinai, Arabia, Anatolia, and Nubia plates covering the time span 1996–2021. The fault parallel and fault normal components for each fault segment were estimated. In addition, we have compared our block motion model with previously published rates for this region from GNSS observations. Recent results based on the time series analysis of SAR scenes applying the Burst-overlap interferometry (BOI) technique have confirmed the rates estimated from GNSS data.

摘要

The ground deformation in the East Mediterranean-Red Sea region is mainly controlled by the activities at the plate boundaries within this region, as the Nubian, Arabian, Sinai, and Anatolian plates are interacted. This region includes the Red Sea, Gulf of Aqaba, Dead Sea Transform Fault (DSTF), and the collision zone at the Cyprus arc system, which are representing the boundaries between interacting plates within this region. In this chapter, we are reviewing the published rates of ground deformation and seismic hazard of this region. Moreover, we are presenting a block motion model for the East Mediterranean region based on a combined solution of geodetic measurements for 397 GPS sites which are located in Sinai, Arabia, Anatolia, and Nubia plates covering the time span 1996–2021. The fault parallel and fault normal components for each fault segment were estimated. In addition, we have compared our block motion model with previously published rates for this region from GNSS observations. Recent results based on the time series analysis of SAR scenes applying the Burst-overlap interferometry (BOI) technique have confirmed the rates estimated from GNSS data.
