摘　　要：Turkey is located in the Alpine-Himalayan seismic zone.The Anatolian plate has witnessed very severe and destructive earthquakes both in the past and today.In this study,statistical analyses of earthquakes that occurred between 1914 and 2019 along the Fethiye-Burdur fault zone,which is an active line,were conducted using geographic information systems.Analyses of standard distance,standard deviational eclipse,mean center,and median center were conducted to determine the geographic distributions of epicenters with a magnitude value of 3.5 and above.Quadrat and Average Nearest Neighbor analyses were used to reveal the spatial pattern.Anselin Local Moran I and Getis Ord Gi*method were used to determining where the earthquake epicenters are clustered locally.Kernel Density analyses were conducted to measure earthquake epicenters’density.Quadrat analysis,Average Nearest Neighbor,Global Moran’s I,and Getis-Ord General G indices demonstrated that earthquakes are clustered in certain regions and are related to each other positionally.Anselin Moran’s I regional analyses revealed that high values were clustered in the West of Burdur city center and the district of Yeşilova,and similar results were obtained in the Getis Ord Gi*method.
