Mag 7.8, 7.5, 6.7 and 6.0 earthquakes and aftershocks in Turkey

[QUOTE="Astronuc, post: 6852242, member: 15685"] I looked at the area last night and noticed a large number of aftershocks in the Taurus Mountain range, as well as in the area between two faults along the coast of Syria. It would be interesting to know how much vertical displacement and/or lateral displacement has occurred in those areas. I also wonder what this means for future activity along the fault lines, and should we expect similar activity from Greece through Iran in the near (next several years/decades) future. In rural areas and small cities, I suspect the buildings were neither designed nor constructed for such strong earthquakes. Given the experience of the last several decades from Greece/Aegean through Iran, such earthquakes should be expected. I've attached some screenshots from USGS Latest Earthquakes: one from last night and three from today. [/QUOTE]
