Abstract
The distribution and orientation of regional seismogenic faults of Kamchatka are calculated by Frac-Digger method based on seismic data catalogs of the Kamchatka Branch of the Federal Research Center United Geophysical Survey, Russian Academy of Sciences. The analysis of Mohr–Coulomb diagrams shows three main geomechanical states, when the regional seismogenic faults can be active: NWW horizontal extention at an azimuth of 300°, horizontal radial extention, and horizontal radial compression. Hydrothermal explosions occur, when the pore pressure exceeds the stress values in the rock mass.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Volcanology and Seismology publishes theoretical and experimental studies, communications, and reports on volcanic, seismic, geodynamic, and magmatic processes occurring in the areas of island arcs and other active regions of the Earth. In particular, the journal looks at present-day land and submarine volcanic activity; Neogene–Quaternary volcanism; mechanisms of plutonic activity; the geochemistry of volcanic and postvolcanic processes; geothermal systems in volcanic regions; and seismological monitoring. In addition, the journal surveys earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and techniques for predicting them.
