SEISMICITY OF ZAGATALA TERRITORY FOR 2019

Abstract

The seismicity of the Zagatala seismogenic zone has been analyzed on the basis of digital data for 2019. One of the most important events of the year was an earthquake in the Zagatala zone with a magnitude of 4.9.
The Zagatala-Balakan zone is one of the main seismic active zones in Azerbaijan. High seismic activity is observed in the research area in 2019. The article extensively analyzes the history of the area and especially the digital data for 2019. The depth distribution of earthquake epicenters and sources have been studied, the seismic energy allocated by months have been calculated,
intensity of the earthquake of magnitude 4.9, that occurred in this area on August 10, 2019, and geometric dimension of the Pleistocene area have been determined on the basis of macroseismic studies.
