Geographical-geodynamic specificity of the Caspian Sea and seismo-geotectonics of Azerbaijan sector
The Caspian Sea is a complicated and open natural geosystem. There are sole mechanisms of geodynamics of global and regional development combining both general energy sources and the energetics of only endogenic or only exogenous processes. Correspondingly, in the occurrence of endogenesis and exogenesis both general, sole mechanisms for them and the specific autonomous mechanisms characteristic for each of the aspect, as well as the complicated combinations of their interactions and interrelations including cascade-energetic systems of various types, levels and power are reflected. Thus, the Caspian phenomenon is a regional reaction to the general changes of global natural geosystem. The research aims studying the areas of modern tensions in the Caspian Sea lithosphere. The main task is the definition of tension state of the lithosphere and its analysis as well. Tectonic structure of the region has been reviewed and seismologic evaluation presented.
