Identification of the possible criteria for prognostication of earthquakes on the ground of the data of the observed deformographic processes and triggered micro-earthquakes

ანოტაცია

Here we consider some latent process of deformation caused by the forces in the Earth’s crust or/and cosmic, latent as well, ones. These processes represent a certain regularities in the nature where, as we know, all physical events are caused by other events and in their turn produce some other ones. To such events belong naturally crust deformations. These events are in organic cause-effect relation with earthquakes and cosmic tidal processes. Many signs and criteria are related to the period of preparation of earthquakes, and it is necessary to attempt to predict to some extend their (earthquakes’) parameters (time, place, strength…) on this ground.
