How we measure 'reads'
A 'read' is counted each time someone views a publication summary (such as the title, abstract, and list of authors), clicks on a figure, or views or downloads the full-text. Learn more

This work contributes to depict the current seismicity, fault kinematics, and state of stress in the Greater Caucasus (territories of Georgia, Azerbaijan and Russia). We merged and homogenized data from different earthquake catalogues, relocated~1000 seismic events, created a database of 366 selected focal mechanism solutions, 239 of which are new,...

The Greater Caucasus Mountains contain the highest peaks in Europe and define, for over 850 km along strike, the leading edge of the second-largest active collisional orogen on Earth. However, the mechanisms by which this range is being constructed remain disputed. Using a new database of earthquake records from local networks in Georgia, Russia, a...
In presented study we invert crustal P and Pn velocities as well as Moho
depth simultaneously applying the joint inversion method developed by
Zhen et al. (2009). In this method all those three parameters are
jointly inverted. It's using a spherical pseudo-bending ray tracing
method and includes secondary Pg wave data at large distances. We
applied...
The tectonics and geological evolution of Georgia and the Caucasus, as a whole, are largely determined by its position between the still-converging Eurasian and Africa-Arabian lithosphere plates, within the wide zone of a continent-continent collision and deformations. The region, during the Late Proterozoic-Early Cenozoic eras, belonged to the now...
