# Surface geometry, segmentation and kinematic features of Dodurga Fault, Eskişehir Fault Zone, NW Anatolia

Patterns: [Distinctions](https://dsrpevidence.org/pattern/distinctions), [Systems](https://dsrpevidence.org/pattern/systems)

## In short

The fault's combined rupture potential exceeds what either constituent segment (distinguished by a geometric step-over boundary) could produce alone, showing parts combining into a whole with emergent behavior demarcated by clear boundaries.

## What they found (results)

Field mapping and kinematic analysis show the 63-km Dodurga Fault splits into two geometrically distinct segments capable of Mw 6.47 and Mw 6.97 earthquakes separately, but joint rupture of both could produce an Mw 7.16 event.

These researchers were not testing DSRP. The finding is theirs; the correspondence to DSRP is drawn by this site.
