Fault plane double-couple solution of earthquakes in Aswan
Results and conclusion1- Earthquakes tend to be clusters in swarm sequences in shallow seismic zone
2- The seismic quiescence is observed in Aswan Seismicity
3- The correlation between seismicity and water level fluctuation is evident in the Lake Aswan reservoir
4- The seismicity is correlated with geological fault traces in general. There are seismic segment trends occupying a nearby area to the Aswan High Dam.
