Abstract:
Information is provided on the number of earthquakes in Kryvyi Rih and their parameters for the period 2007–2018. The types of seismic phenomena, the criteria for their identification are considered. The most probable natural and technogenic factors of the epicenters of local earthquakes are established by analyzing their location and sequence in time from the point of view of the tectonic features of the territory and the nature of the technogenic interference in its structure. The necessity of creating a local seismological network in Kryvyi Rih is substantiated. With a view to predict hazardous seismic phenomena, there is a need to continue hydrogeodynamic monitoring of ground water, to introduce seismic gravity monitoring and to conduct microseismic monitoring at mining enterprises. The results of systematic monitoring shall serve as the basis for seismic microzoning of the city. It is emphasized that popularization and dissemination of knowledge about the seismicity of mining regions among the population shall play an important role in the implementation of this task. The research materials can be used in the master's degree programme within the framework of higher education system and in advanced training of specialists in the mining industry.
