Geologic trenching revealed coseismic offsets occurred along the entire 45 km (28 mi) onshort section of the Ganos Fault.

For its surface-wave magnitude (Ms  7.3–7.4), its corresponding rupture length would be approximately 135 ± 25 km (84 ± 16 mi).

This implied the offshore segments east and west of the onshore Ganos Fault also ruptured.

In the Marmara Sea, young fault scarps and right-lateral offsets up to 6 m (20 ft) were found.

Evidence of landslides from the 1912 event were found at the southern edge of the Tekirdağ Basin.
