The analysis of the earthquakes on territory Armenia and adjacent regions is presented. highest level seismic activity in Republic registered Northern part territory, within source zones Spitak (1988), Van (2011) two Akharin (2012) earthquakes. significant felt are described.
Here is the overview of seismicity territory Republic Armenia and surrounding countries for 2018 2019. More than 4000 local earthquakes have been processed. N=1417 N=1416 2019 were included in catalogue Armenia. Within highest level seismic activity fixed north, source zone Spitak earthquake 1988, MLV=6.9, I0=10. Analysis recurrence graphs 2018, showed that slope (2018=0.47 2019=0.42 respectively) slightly lower absolute value its average 1993–2017 (=0.49). Earthquakes felt on are described.
The paper presents the results of a study 2018–2019 tangible seismic events with intensity at epicenter 5–6 points and above, that occurred in focal zone 10-point Spitak earthquake 07.12.1988 MLH =6.8. Two earthquakes June 6, 2018, МL=3.6 МL=4.3, as well two shocks on September 10, 2019, МL=4.7 МL=3.9, were felt nearest settlements an 5 or more points. For three them, according to collected macroseismic data, isoseist maps constructed parameters determined. strike nodal planes sources is...
After the Spitak earthquake on December 7, 1988, Bavrian February 13, 22 hours 25 minutes local time, with a magnitude of MS= 5.4 and an intensity at epicenter I0=7 points, was second such intensity, lasted quite long time due to strong aftershocks.
An overview of seismicity in the territory Republic Armenia and neighboring countries for 2020 is provided. More than 3000 local earthquakes were processed, but catalog “Armenia”, being an electronic supplement to this article, included 1642 with ML=0.1 6.0 (KR=4.2–14.8). The slope earthquake frequency graph (=–0.42) lower absolute value its long-term 1993–2017 (av=–0.49). Within Republic, highest level seismic activity was registered north, focal zone 10-points Spitak 1988 MLV=6.9....
A review of seismicity the Armenia Republic territory and neighboring countries for 20162017 is carried out, information about seismic stations network given. Testing a new digital seismograph developed in city Gyumri was example its recording perceptible earthquake More than 7000 local earthquakes were processed, 2025 them are included consolidated catalog. Within Republic, highest level activity recorded North, source zone Spitak 1988 with MLV=6.9, I=10. The recurrence graphs 2016, 2017...
The work presents the results of macroseismic survey Spitak-V earthquake which occurred on July 6, 2014 with МL=4.0, I0=5–6 in focal zone destructive Spitak 1988 I0=10. isoseismal map was made and mechanism parameters were determined. According to decision, movement source a strike-slip minor uplift components.
We have analyzed the seismicity of Armenia and adjacent territories in 2015. The highest level seismic activity was recorded northern part Republic, focal zone Spitak earthquake 1988. tangible earthquakes territory are described.
The article describes changes in the composition and equipment of network seismic stations Armenia, which ensured a representative level earthquake registration Armenia 2014 with K3min=8.0. analysis seismicity on territory neighboring regions is carried out, focal mechanisms 17 earthquakes are determined using signs P-wave first arrivals at countries. Within Republic, highest activity was North, zone Spitak 07.12.1988 MLH=6.8, I0=10. macroseismic effect felt described.
The instrumental data and results of macroseismic survey the July 4, 2017 earthquake with ML=3.7, I0=5–6, occurred in source zone devastating Spitak 1988 I0=10, are given. was accompanied by a sound like an explosion. According to focal mechanism parameters, reverse faulting along NP1 plane northwest strike northeast dipping, or thrust near-meridional NP2 dipping west. migration aftershocks north east October-December testifies favor choosing nodal as main one. An isoseismal map is...
