In this new route, the southern branch connects with the main branch of the NAFZ in Bolu via the Golpazari pull-apart basin and Mudurnu. The slip distribution of the NAFZ as taken from GPS data indicates that the newly hypothesized route is the second most important branch of the NAFZ.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessEarthquakeGPSNeotectonicsNorth Anatolian Fault ZoneTurkeyA hypothesis for the alternative southern branch of the North Anatolian Fault Zone, Northwest TurkeyArticle59211513010.25288/tjb.298155WOS:000443714000001N/A
