Earth seismic activity map online. Seismically active regions of Russia: where earthquakes are possible

Destructive force earthquake depends on its magnitude (in the hypocenter, i.e. in the source), the depth of the earthquake source and the distance from the epicenter (the point of projection of the center on the earth's surface).

Examples of media reports and explanations of terms:
"According to ***, there, at so much Moscow time, an earthquake occurred magnitude in the source M=4.3 points on the nine-point Richter scale, at a depth of 15 km from sea level.
The epicenter of the earthquake was located 100 kilometers southeast of the city ***. Tremors were felt in the village *** force up to four points, and in the city of *** - three points (on a 12-point scale). According to the latest data, there are no casualties and serious damage. During the week, 4 earthquakes with a magnitude of 2.3 to 4.3 on the Richter scale were recorded in this area, which were also felt in neighboring regions. According to statistics provided by seismologists, the average interval between series of earthquakes of magnitude up to four points in this area is approximately *** years.

Or
"An earthquake with a magnitude, in the source, 4.3 happened there. Its epicenter was a hundred kilometers southeast of the city ***. The depth of the focus is 15 km" from sea level.

Or
A four-point earth happened somewhere today.

Magnitude earthquake (not to be confused with "strength", and leave points alone) - quantitatively characterizes its energy, at the source, on a nine-point Richter scale (0-9). Calculated based on the results of measurements by instruments (seismographs) at the closest seismic stations to the epicenter different countries. An earthquake with a magnitude of 6 or more, with a nearby epicenter and a shallow source, is considered strong and can cause significant damage and cause casualties among the population, especially if buildings and residential structures are not designed for proper seismic resistance or are built by low-skilled guest workers, with gross violations building codes and regulations.

Force earthquake shocks (intensity) - a qualitative (felt, visible) characteristic of the degree of destruction and other manifestations on earth's surface, at a specific point on the surface of the earth. For this, a twelve-point scale (1-12) or a modified Mercalli scale is used. They differ little. The real danger is tremors with a force of four points or more.

Forecast. Before a strong earthquake, in a few minutes or even hours, domestic animals and birds begin to scream and rush about, tend to run away from the house to the street, to hide. Dogs try to lead their owners, children to a safe place. Cats take away kittens. Aquarium fish - worried, trying to jump out of the aquarium water. Rats and mice run out of the basements of houses. Wild animals, in advance - a few hours or days before the earthquake, flocks leave the dangerous area. Snakes and lizards crawl out of their holes (even in winter, and at night and in bad weather), Birds constantly scream, fly in circles for a long time and randomly. Animals and birds lose their appetite, their behavior changes dramatically - they, without attacking each other, move away from danger together.

Those who were born, grew up and lived (under natural conditions) in earthquake-prone areas have the best sensitivity. The skill is retained for a long time. Their reaction is more often selective, only to close (local earthquakes) and dangerous in strength (more than two to four points).

Seismologists and volcanologists use scientific, instrumental methods of forecasting and early warning methods: constant monitoring seismic activity a network of sensitive sensors, regular measurements and detection of increases in the concentration of helium and radon in the surface air and at depth, etc.

The dependence of the intensity of the earth from distance to epicenter. From nearby earthquake epicenters great strength(if it hits a "seven" magnitude or higher) - very sharp shocks and shocks are felt, intense shaking, glows, sparks are visible, an underground rumble, crackling and roar of collapsing buildings and falling, broken trees are heard, there is a sharp increase in wind. At distances of hundreds of kilometers, from the epicenter, the echoes of an earthquake reach - low-frequency, relatively slow oscillations, undulating swaying of the daytime surface of the earth. The farther - the less their vertical amplitude and longer period(up to a minute or more, with a distance to the epicenter of several thousand kilometers), with the exception of anomalously intense and resonant manifestations at certain distances from the epicenter and along large, deep tectonic faults.

Influence of tidal (gravitational) effects. Seismicity increases - on the new moon and, especially, on the full moon, as well as when the Moon is in perigee (closer to the Earth). There is also a seasonal dependence: in autumn and, especially, in winter, it shakes harder and more often than in spring and summer.

Geological factor. The greatest destruction from the earthquake - at the rocky outcrops rocks and if they are covered with loose deposits of small thickness, which are thrown up on their base. Safer soil conditions are territories with thick strata of loose forges. rocks in which the seismic wave weakens, is extinguished until it reaches the earth's surface.

Tsunami occur when the epicenter of the earth is near sea coast. Water, at the first impact, first leaves the shore, and then, accelerating, in the form big wave crashes on the coast. The brightness of the glow of marine organisms also rises sharply two or three minutes before the tsunami.

Map of tectonic plates of the world

Scientists have compiled a map of the largest tectonic plates:

Australian;
Arabian subcontinent;
Antarctic;
African;
Hindustan;
Eurasian;
Nazca plate;
Cooker Coconut;
Pacific;
North and South American platforms;
Scotia plate;
Philippine plate.

From theory, we know that hard shell Earth (lithosphere) consists not only of the plates that form the relief of the surface of the planet, but also of the deep part - the mantle. Continental platforms have a thickness of 35 km (on flat territories) up to 70 km (in the zone of mountain ranges). Scientists have proven that the plate in the Himalayas has the greatest thickness. Here the thickness of the platform reaches 90 km. The thinnest lithosphere is found in the ocean zone. Its thickness does not exceed 10 km, and in some areas this figure is 5 km. Based on information about the depth at which the epicenter of the earthquake is located and what is the propagation speed seismic waves, calculations of the thickness of sections of the earth's crust are made.

Map of faults and seismically dangerous places

The map shows the places of seismically dangerous zones. The zones are highlighted in color from green to red. The closer the color is to red, the more likely strong and destructive earthquakes. The map was created on the data of earthquakes that have occurred since 1973.
Nuclear power plants are marked on the map. Finding nuclear power plant seismically danger zone increases the danger to the population.

Behavior before, during and after an earthquake

The vast majority of earthquakes have a duration of about one, rarely more than one minute. However, the intensity of oscillations during this time is not the same. As a rule, an earthquake begins with relatively weak vibrations (sometimes imperceptible), which last 10-20 seconds, then the main phase of the earthquake begins, during which the vibrations reach greatest intensity followed by a gradual decline.

Qualitatively erected and well-maintained buildings that do not have special anti-seismic measures are able to withstand earthquakes of up to 6 points without much damage. Buildings that are in an unsatisfactory technical condition and dilapidated, under the threat of strong earthquakes, are doubly dangerous.

Before the earthquake

Inside the house, securely attach cabinets, shelves, and furniture walls to the walls and floor. Furniture, standing and hanging objects in living quarters are placed so that if they fall, sleeping people are not injured and passages and exits from the apartment remain free. All heavy objects should be moved to the lower shelves and places. Shelves with utensils must be closed. Fix chandeliers and overhead lights securely, do not use glass lampshades.

Do not clutter up the aisles and exits from rooms and apartments with things. Flammable, caustic, poisonous liquids and powders must be securely sealed, closed in strong, fixed containers and boxes.

All family members should be well aware of the most without dangerous places residential premises: in the openings of the internal main walls near these walls, at the supporting columns and under the frame beams, in the corners of the internal main walls and under solid furniture (tables, beds). And dangerous places too: near large glazed openings and partitions, corner rooms of buildings, especially the last floors.

During an earthquake

Don't panic! Quickly focus on the implementation of previously thought out actions, but be ready to act according to circumstances.

In the house/apartment:

If you are in a low, up to 2-3 floors building, then it is better to leave it quickly. This is especially true if the building is not earthquake resistant. Run out quickly, but carefully, beware of falling objects, broken wires and other sources of danger, and immediately move away from the building, away from the open area.

When on the upper floors of a multi-story building, do not rush to the stairs and elevators. Most likely, they will be overcrowded with people, and the elevators are disabled. Therefore, it is better to stay in the building and, having previously opened the front door, which may later be jammed from distortions, quickly take the safest place in the room: under solid furniture, at the support column closest to the center of the building, in the doorway of the main walls, in the corner rooms. And always away from windows, heavy objects and equipment that could tip over. Help the disabled and the elderly.

Do not enter buildings or run around them. Once next to a tall building, stand in the doorway, this will protect you from falling pieces of glass, balconies, cornices and parapets. It's best to be on open space away from buildings and power lines.

In transport

Any transport must be calmly and quickly stopped, as far as possible from tall buildings, overpasses, bridges, power lines or anything that can collapse from strong shocks. Drivers of buses and trams, having stopped the transport, must open all the doors.

After the earthquake

While in the building, remain calm, assess the situation. Examine yourself and those around you, if necessary, provide medical care needy. Wear sturdy shoes to protect your feet from splinters and debris. Going down the stairs, check the reliability of its structures.

Check for a fire hazard. The resulting flame must be extinguished immediately. If you notice damage to the wiring, turn off the power, if it has not already been done.

Every day different parts of our planet are shaken. tremors. An earthquake is one of natural Disasters that cannot be prevented by humans.

The only thing he can oppose to the indomitable forces of nature is the achievements of science in the field of forecasting. Systematization and monitoring of seismic activity allows timely avoidance human casualties and destruction, as well as designate areas of greatest seismic activity.

Accounting for earthquake sources

Earth seismic activity map is physical map planet, which displays areas where certain period earthquakes greater than 4 on the Richter scale. The map uses the following conventions: The diameter of the area is proportional to the strength of the tremors, and the color of the circle indicates the time interval. For example, red areas correspond to earthquakes occurring on the current date or in real time.

Seismic monitor, updated every 20 minutes

red circles - earthquakes in the last 24 hours
orange circles - earthquakes in the last 1-4 days
yellow circles - earthquakes in the last 4-14 days
