Abstract

Undoubtedly, one of the evidence of tectonic activity in each region is earthquake, which has a major role in casualties and financial losses. The earthquake is usually caused by faults that sometimes extend to the depths of the earth's crust. In cases where no signs or complications of these faults are observed on the surface of the earth, it is necessary to get a better understanding of these faults and its sub branches by combining geological knowledge as well as remote sensing and geophysical instruments. The Kazar fault in the study area is a fundamental fault that has been attributed to at least six historical earthquake events. Due to quaternary activities, recognition of this fault is very important in the region. Therefore, geological and geophysical studies were carried out on the historical site of Gohartepeh in Behshahr city to reveal its hidden parts. Specific resistive methods with bipolar bipolar arrangement at 10 and 20 meters intervals are used to provide sections and maps. By examining them and considering the position and depth of the anomalies obtained in the next stages, new profiles and networks were designed. In order to obtain more accurate results, the cesium magneto metric scanning was performed on 4 profiles. Data obtained from field operations and data acquisition as well as final processing of data in specialized software have been incorporated and clearly interpreted from sub-surface structures, especially faults and discontinuities in the study area, which indicate an impressive anomalous adaptation obtained with field evidence.
