Description

The upper part of the Earth's crust structure was investigated in the Chuya's earthquake epicentral zone (9.27.2003) according to P- and S-waves travel time from aftershocks. Ray Seismic Tomography using time delays was used for data interpretation. A 3D model of Chuya earthquake focal area (distribution of P- and S-wave velocities and Poisson's coefficient) was designed for the territory of 80x80 km with depth up to 15 km. It was analyzed spatial relation of obtained elasticity parameters for environment with seismicity of observed area. (author)
