MODELLING OF ZONES OF POTENTIAL EARTHQUAKES FOCI FOR TERRITORIES NEAR BENIOFF ZONES
Based on the catalogue of earthquakes of the Kuril-Kamchatka region for the period from 1737 to 2007, a 3D model may zones of potential earthquake foci is developed for the Southern Kuril territory. The model can be useful for seismic hazard forecasting. Boundaries of structural elements of the zone...

Summary: | Based on the catalogue of earthquakes of the Kuril-Kamchatka region for the period from 1737 to 2007, a 3D model may zones of potential earthquake foci is developed for the Southern Kuril territory. The model can be useful for seismic hazard forecasting. Boundaries of structural elements of the zones with potential earthquake foci are determined by seismic methods. На основе каталога землетрясений Курило-Камчатского региона за 1737–2007 гг. для Южных Курильских островов создана трехмерная модель зон возможных очагов землетрясений (ВОЗ) для оценки сейсмической опасности. Сейсмическими методами уточнены границы структурных элементов зон ВОЗ (линеаментов). |
