Abstract:
Makran accretionary wedge as one of the largest accretionary wedges on the world, has been formed by the convergence between Arabian and Eurasian Plates. Twelve earthquakes with magnitudes Mw ≥ ۵.۰ occurred in May and July ۲۰۱۳ in a low seismicity small area of western Makran accretionary wedge, SE Iran. The focal mechanism solutions show dominated strike-slip type. These events occurred on an ENE striking fault that allows the almost oblique convergence (N۱۰ºE) to partition into deformation front-perpendicular motion on the subduction interface and deformation front-parallel motion on the Goharan fault. The aftershock sequence share common features with seismic swarm.
