Abstract

By complex analysis of GPS velocities, seismicity, fractal dimensions of the spatial distribution of seismic epicenters, focal mechanisms of the earthquakes, and stress state of the Earth's crust, four seismic zones (BalakenZagatala, ShekiGabala, ShamakhyIsm ailly, and Absheron) are revealed within the south� ern slope of the Greater Caucasus. The suggested method can be used as a criterion in seismotectonic zoning; it could also be useful in the assessment of seismic hazards in the collision zones.
