A high-resolution marine geophysical study was conducted during October-November 2006 in the northern Gulf of Aqaba/Eilat,
providing the first multibeam imaging of the seafloor across the entire gulf head spanning both Israeli and Jordanian territorial
waters. Analyses of the seafloor morphology show that the gulf head can be subdivided into the Eilat and Aqaba subbasins separated
by the north-south-trending Ayla high. The Aqaba submarine basin appears starved of sediment supply, apparently causing erosion
and a landward retreat of the shelf edge. Along the eastern border of this subbasin, the shelf is largely absent and its margin
is influenced by the Aqaba Fault zone that forms a steep slope partially covered by sedimentary fan deltas from the adjacent
ephemeral drainages. The Eilat subbasin, west of the Ayla high, receives a large amount of sediment derived from the extensive
drainage basins of the Arava Valley (Wadi ’Arabah) and Yutim River to the north–northeast. These sediments and those entering
from canyons on the south-western border of this subbasin are transported to the deep basin by turbidity currents and gravity
slides, forming the Arava submarine fan. Large detached blocks and collapsed walls of submarine canyons and the western gulf
margin indicate that mass wasting may be triggered by seismic activity. Seafloor lineaments defined by slope gradient analyses
suggest that the Eilat Canyon and the boundaries of the Ayla high align along north- to northwest-striking fault systems—the
Evrona Fault zone to the west and the Ayla Fault zone to the east. The shelf–slope break that lies along the 100 m isobath
in the Eilat subbasin, and shallower (70–80 m isobaths) in the Aqaba subbasin, is offset by approx. 150 m along the eastern
edge of the Ayla high. This offset might be the result of horizontal and vertical movements along what we call the Ayla Fault
on the east side of the structure. Remnants of two marine terraces at 100 m and approx. 150 m water depths line the southwest
margin of the gulf. These terraces are truncated by faulting along their northern end. Fossil coral reefs, which have a similar
morphological appearance to the present-day, basin margin reefs, crop out along these deeper submarine terraces and along
the shelf–slope break. One fossil reef is exposed on the shelf across the Ayla high at about 60–63 m water depth but is either
covered or eroded in the adjacent subbasins. The offshore extension of the Evrona Fault offsets a fossil reef along the shelf
and extends south of the canyon to linear fractures on the deep basin floor. 相似文献

Geophysical methods—seismic refraction (SRFR), electrical resistivity tomography (ERT), and microgravity—were applied to the Dead Sea (DS) sinkhole problem in the Ein Gedi area at the earlier stage of the sinkhole development (1998–2002). They allowed determining the sinkhole formation mechanism and localizing the sinkhole hazardous zones. The SRFR method permitted to delineate the underground edge of a salt layer at the depth of 50 m. The salt edge was shaped like the sinkhole line on the surface. It was concluded that the sinkhole development is linked to the salt edge. Geoelectrical quasi-3D mapping based on the ERT technique detected large resistivity anomalies with 250–300 m2 diameter and 25–35 m deep. The Ein Gedi area has been also mapped by the use of Microgravity method. The residual Bouguer gravity anomaly map shows negative anomalies arranged along the edge of the salt layer. Those gravity anomalies overall are very similar in plan to the resistivity distribution in this area. The results of forward modeling indicate that both high resistivity and residual gravity anomalies are associated with a subsurface decompaction of the soil mass and deep cavity at the sinkhole site. Following monitoring of the sinkhole development carried out by the Geological Survey of Israel confirmed our suggestions. The drilling of numerous boreholes verified the location of the salt edge. Geographical Information System (GIS) database testifies that during 2003–2009 new sinkholes are continuing to develop along the salt edge within a narrow 50–100 m wide strip oriented approximately in north–south direction (slightly parallel to the shoreline). No promotion in west–east direction (perpendicularly to the DS shoreline) was observed in Israel. Collapse of sinkholes and their clustering have been occurred within the area of high resistivity anomaly and negative residual gravity anomaly. Similar studies carried out at the Ghor Al-Haditha area (Jordan) have shown that sinkholes there are also arranged along the winding line conforming to the salt edge. In this area sinkholes are slowly moved to the Dead Sea direction. Results of geophysical studies in numerous DS sites indicate similar sinkhole development. It allowed generating of the sinkhole formation model based on ancient (10,000–11,000-year old) salt belt girding the Dead Sea along its shores 相似文献
