Variation of Fault Creep Along the Overdue Istanbul‐Marmara Seismic Gap in NW Türkiye

Abstract Strain energy from tectonic loading can be partly released through aseismic creep. Earthquake repeaters, repeatedly activated brittle fault patches surrounded by creep, indicate steady‐state creep that affects the amount of seismic energy available for the next large earthquake along a plat...
