The seismograms recorded at a total of 71 strong ground-motion stations (SGMS) located within 100 km of the fault rupture were used to investigate the durational variability observed during the 6 February 2023 M 7.8 Pazarcık, Kahramanmaraş, Türkiye, earthquake. More specifically, significant duration (D) and equivalent number of uniform stress cycles (N) estimated using these accelerograms were compared with the ones predicted by Cetin et al. (2021) and Davatgari-Tafreshi and Bora (2023) models, respectively. To facilitate the comparisons, residuals were estimated and presented with reference to (1) SGMS’ geographical locations; (2) recorded peak ground acceleration (PGA) intensities; (3) distance to the fault rupture, or RJB; (4) site stiffness; and (5) angular orientation of the stations relative to the fault rupture. The assessment results reveal that during the Pazarcık event the duration parameters of D5−75, D5−95, and N were recorded as 23 s, 40 s, and 25 cycles, respectively, on average. Hatay and Kahramanmaraş emerge as the metropolitan cities with the highest PGA intensities, coupled with above-the-average significant durations. A negative correlation is evident between the duration and PGA intensity levels for stations located on the Anatolian side of the rupture, particularly pronounced for the significant duration parameters. The N, D5−75, and D5−95 values appear to be unaffected by RJB distances within 10 km, after which they exhibit an increasing trend. The significant durations were evaluated to be longer at softer soil sites. As the azimuth angle θ increases, D and N were observed to increase.
