FEATURES OF THE DISTRIBUTION OF SWARM SEISMIC EVENTS AND EARTHQUAKES WITH М≥4 IN THE SHAMAKHI-ISMAYILLI ZONE IN 2003-2019

Abstract

The space-time distribution of swarm sequences of earthquakes, as well as earthquakes with aftershocks within the Shamakhi-Ismayilli seismogenic zone in 2003-2019, is considered. The depth distribution of earthquake sources has been studied. The dependence of the occurrence of both aftershock and swarm sequences of earthquakes on the stress state of the medium and their confinement to the elements of transverse structuresof the anti-Caucasian fault tectonics has been established.
