Figure 2. (a) Stress imparted by both mainshocks on surrounding faults, idealizing the surrounding faults as parallel to the general trend of the East Anatolian Fault. (b) This map shows the same calculation, but with a different receiver fault in the appropriate orientation for the magnitude-6.3 aftershock that occurred on Feb. 20, 2023.
