    The change in duration, amplitude, and frequency content of the earthquake ground motion as it passes through the rock and ground environment is referred to as the local ground effect. Impedance differences between bedrock and soil, as well as the dynamic behavior of soils, can amplify this effect. The geometry of both dense and loose soil layers must be known to accurately define soil-structure interaction and properly assess how soil behavior affects a structure during an earthquake. Local ground effects are known to play a significant role in structural damage during earthquakes. In basin-like environments, however, studies based on foundation and sub-base depth often lack sufficient information, making it difficult to identify problems associated with basin effects. It is not appropriate to provide construction-related information, especially in environments with a basin structure like Sivas, without determining the bedrock or solid ground conditions. This study aimed at determining the bedrock/seismic foundation depth for the central settlement of Sivas and defining the basin structure, involved large-scale microgravity measurements. The study area was modeled in three dimensions using the gravity data obtained. Long-term microtremor measurements were also conducted, and one-dimensional depth-shear-wave (Vs) velocity models were generated using the Rayleigh ellipticity method. The bedrock/seismic foundation structure of the study area was defined using two different methods, and these definitions were combined into two-dimensional sections. A depth map of the study area was created, revealing that the thickness of the loose basin unit is approximately 90 m. Ambient noise was recorded at 35 points with a velocity seismometer, and S velocity (Vs) profiles were obtained from joint inversion of Rayleigh ellipticity data and dispersion curves from MASW and ReMi data. Furthermore, the Vs-depth structure of the basin was defined along the profiles cutting the basin in NW-SE and S-N directions, based on the Vs velocities in the 2D gravity model. The frequency range along these profiles was found to be 0.6 Hz in the deep parts of the basin and 2.5 Hz in the shallow parts.

    Three dimensional shear wave velocity (Vs) structure and dynamic soil properties of Adiyaman-Golbasi basin using HVSR and SPAC methods
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2026) Pamuk, Eren; Firat, Seyhan; Buyuksarac, Aydin; Cretin, Kemal Onder; Bektas, Ozcan; Isik, Nihat Sinan; Saritepe, Halil Erdim
    On February 6, 2023, two devastating earthquakes (M-w 7.8 and M-w 7.6) struck southeastern T & uuml;rkiye, two of the most destructive seismic events in the country's history. This study investigates the structural damage and seismic vulnerability in the G & ouml;lbasi Basin, located in Adiyaman Province-one of the regions most severely affected by these events. Geophysical techniques, the HVSR (Nakamura) and spatial autocorrelation (SPAC) methods, were employed to develop shear wave velocity (Vs) profiles and evaluate the dynamic soil properties of the basin. Shear wave velocities within the G & ouml;lbasi Basin, down to a depth of 300 m, range from 211 to 923 m/s, with the lowest values observed near the lake, indicating weak and loose soil conditions. Natural site periods vary between 0.1 s and 2.86 s, with the longest periods (T > 2.5 s) also concentrated in the vicinity of the lake. In areas where the engineering bedrock (Vs > 760 m/s) lies deeper than 250 m, natural periods frequently exceed 1.5 s. These findings suggest that zones with thick alluvial deposits and low Vs values are particularly susceptible to seismic hazards. Structural damage was most severe in areas where Vs is below 350 m/s, site periods exceed 1 s, and the engineering bedrock lies deeper than 50 m. Notably, low-rise industrial buildings and low-rise structures with basement floors remained intact despite poor soil conditions. In contrast, in areas with more competent ground conditions, structural collapses were more likely caused by deficiencies in engineering design or construction quality.
