Seismological monitoring is vital for both fundamental research and applied geophysics. Even in regions with moderate seismicity, a robust seismic network crucial hazard assessment geoscientific advancements. In Ukraine, this need has intensified due to the ongoing recovery modernization following war. Ukraine’s historically faced significant challenges, including outdated equipment minimal upgrades since independence. The war exacerbated these issues, resulting funding cuts,...
To better understand the geological and tectonic conditions of Ukraine, it is necessary to improve regional earthquake monitoring by upgrading existing seismic stations installing new ones. Ukraine's western, southwestern, southern regions are located within a seismically active belt formed collision Eurasian African plates. This spans from Azores through Mediterranean, Black Sea, Caucasus regions, extending Hindu Kush. It includes key areas such as Carpathian Arc, which experiences...

Seismic activity in Ukraine varies across regions with notable active zones the Carpathians and Crimean-Black Sea segments. Southwest is affected by Vrancea seismic zone (Romania) demands attention, alongside rare but potentially powerful events stable Ukrainian shield. Mining industrial activities also induce ground vibrations (Mw 2.5–4) otherwise areas. Although major destructive earthquakes are infrequent, cumulative impact of smaller can shape geological geophysical landscape...
