MODELLING OF ZONES OF POTENTIAL EARTHQUAKES FOCI FOR TERRITORIES NEAR BENIOFF ZONES

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2015
Based on the catalogue of earthquakes of the Kuril-Kamchatka region for the period from 1737 to 2007, a 3D model may zones of potential earthquake foci is developed for the Southern Kuril territory. The model can be useful for seismic hazard forecasting.
