Seismotectonics of the Koyna-Warna Area, India
Reservoir-induced seismicity has been observed near Koyna Dam, India since the early 1960s. In order to understand the seismotectonics of the region we analyzed available seismicity data from 1963 to 1995. Over 300 earthquakes with M]3.0 were relocated using revised location parameters (station locations, velocity model, station delays and Vp /Vs ratio). The spatial pattern of earthquakes was i...
متن کاملGeodetic contributions to the study of seismotectonics in India
Earthquakes in India are caused by the release of elastic strain energy created and replenished by the stresses resulting from India’s collision with Asia. Accumulating strain distorts the surface of the Indian plate, which despite its slow development can now be detected using precision geodesy. The largest and most severe earthquakes occur on the boundaries of the Indian plate to the east, no...

gol-e-gohar iron ore mine of sirjan in southern part of iran is a large open pit that operates below the groundwater table and during mining operation, dewatering is required to prevent operation processes from flooding. current operation is going on by digging wells in or out of the pit and pumping to prevent flooding. as a result of the former dewatering operation a vast deep cone of depressi...
A Matlab based GUI application in Hydroseismicity of the
Hydroseismicity was proposed to explain the occurrence of intraplate earthquakes in regions. Koyna Warna region one of the reservoir triggered seismicity zone in India, which is an example of intraplate earthquake region. The seismicity is continuing after 45 years of impoundment of the Koyna reservoir in 1961 and 25 years of impoundment of Warna reservoir in 1985. The excess of previous maximu...
متن کاملSeismic hazard assessment of Koyna region, Peninsular India: using geospatial approach
Background: Earthquake-prone regions from the stable continental regions (like Peninsular India) warrant total seismic hazard estimation from possible sources — reservoir induced or tectonic. The Koyna region falls in the so-called stable continental region, though previously considered as aseismic because of its location in the Peninsular India, which was argued to be the continental Shield re...
