Seismotectonics of sources of strong earthquakes in the Caucasus: Results of studies by Evgeny Alexandrovich Rogozhin

Abstract

The results of a consistent and versatile study of the seismotectonics of source zones of strong modern earthquakes in the Caucasus under the guidance and with the participation of E.A. Rogozhin. The sources of all strong modern earthquakes have been studied from a unified methodological standpoint. The collected data on the tectonic position of seismic sources make it possible to draw certain conclusions that are of practical interest in order to seismic hazard assessment.
