The predictions related to earthquakes have drawn the attention of society
as well as media in the developing countries where the ‘common’ people have
different perceptions. Most often, popular myths take over scientific facts
among the public, and this can lead to rumors about natural hazards. This
article will mention rumors related to natural disasters, and particularly the
rumors regarding the response of society, media and government when earthquakes
happen. This research emphasizes the ethical responsibility needed to be
undertaken by scientists to avoid panic instead of the rumors by
pseudo-experts. This article summarizes the efforts provided by the scientists
to prevent the recent rumors about a sudden water rise in Lake Van, the flash
flood occurred in the Samsun Province and the earthquake happened (M 6.7,
October 23, 2011) in the Van Province in Turkey.

Depremle ilgili tahminler insanların farklı algılara sahip olduğu gelişmekte olan ülkelerde toplumun dikkatinin yanı sıra medyanın da dikkatini çekmiş durumdadır. Çoğu zaman, toplumda halk efsaneleri bilimsel gerçeklerin yerini alabilmektedir ve bu durum doğal afetler hakkında söylentilere yol açmaktadır. Bu makale doğal afetler ile ilgili söylentiler ve özellikle deprem durumunda toplum, medya ve hükümetin tepkisi hakkında söylentilere değinecektir. Bu araştırma sözde uzmanlardan kaynaklanan söylentiler yerine bilim insanlarının paniği önlemek için üstlenmeleri gereken etik sorumluluğa dikkat çekmektedir. Bu makale, Türkiye’de, Van Gölündeki ani yükselme, Samsun İlinde meydana gelen ani sel ve Van’da gerçekleşen deprem (M 6.7, 23 Ekim 2011) ile ilgili söylentileri gösterip, Bilim İnsanlarının bu söylentileri önlemek için ortaya koyduğu çabaları özetleyecektir
