Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Earthquake damage along the south coast of Izmit Bay. Note the flattened building on the shore and the boat between the trees. All the windows appear to be missing on the first floor of the other buildings. Debris from the tsunami has been deposited in the trees. In Halidere, all of the boats normally on the beaches floated 30-50 meters up the streets. The measured runup here was between one and two meters. A mooring buoy was deposited in one resident's back yard. Seaweed traces were found 50 meters up a street. The residents reported that the sea level had risen two meters or more and that a beach in front of the seawall had disappeared. A road ended abruptly in the bay. Everything had subsided about two meters.
