vulnerability studies.
Acknowledgements
The Authors would like to acknowledge the significant contributions of Prof. M. Erdik,
E. Durukal, M. Demircioglu, and K. Sesetyan during all microzonation projects con-
ducted at Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute and of the ABS team
who worked very hard to supply the necessary input data and technical support to the
authors infinalising themicrozonation studies withinthe context of the MEER project.
