摘要:The Mn 6.1 Dashti earthquake occurred at 16:24:49 local time, 16:24:49 UTC, on 9 April 2010, in Boshehr province, southwest Iran. Dashti earthquake occurred near a distance of 80 km of Bushehr port. This earthquake has many aftershocks and its aftershocks still occur in the region. The study area is a part of the central Iran seismotectonic province. The tectonics of the region is dominated by a convergence between the Arabian and Eurasian plates. When earthquakes occur in an area, especially if they occur frequently indicates that a fault is active and ruptured. The aftershock locations show a trend of NW-SE, which is interpreted as the fault plane of the mainshock. The study of the spatial distribution of the aftershocks of this earthquake shows that the Pishani-Kohestan fault is the cause of the earthquake.
