On February 6,2023,the doublet earthquake including two main shocks with magnitudes Mw7.8 and Mw7.5,occurred near the western side of the East Anatolian Fault at the southeast boundary of the Anatolian Plateau in Turkey.Based on the WGM2012 Bouguer gravity anomaly data and the Etopo1 topography data,this study first introduced a joint inversion of admittance and coherence functions and used the Bayesian optimal parameter estimation method to obtain the effective elastic thickness Te and loading ratio F of the lithosphere for various tectonic units in the Anatolian Plateau.Secondly,we dis-cussed the characteristics and influencing factors of the lithospheric mechanical strength and analyzed its relationship with seismic activity.The lithospheric mechanical strength of the Anatolian Plateau showed clear lateral heterogeneity and a"weak-strong-weak"spatial pattern from east to west,reflecting various tectonic processes.At last,the strong seismic activity was found where the lithospheric strength was low in the Anatolian Plate.We also incorporated GPS strain rate and other results to investigate the tectonic background and primary causes of the Mw7.8 and Mw7.5 doublet earthquakes in Turkey.The results have a good insight into urban safety design in the Turkish region,including post-disaster rehabilitation,earthquake hazard assessment,and loss reduction.
