Tectonic investigation of the western boundary of the Sinai Microplate
Leading researcher: Prof. Roi Granot
Together with the research team: Dr. Yariv Hamiel and Dr. Oded Katz
In collaboration with the institutions: The Geological Institute, Ben Gurion University
This project aimed at better understanding the tectonic processes acting along the western boundary of the Sinai Microplate. We collected multi-channel seismic reflection data during May 2020. The early results suggest that the motion along the plate boundary might have been in an opposite direction to what we have thus far believed
