On January 6, 2012, a moderate earthquake was observed in a region SE of Poznań (local magnitude ML = 3.6 according to Institute of Physics of the Earth, IPE). In this region, there haven‘t been known any historical earthquakes so far, and no natural seismic activity has been observed up to present. Similar rare occurrences of weak and moderate earthquakes were observed in a region near Kaliningrad in 2004 (sequence of events, local magnitude of strongest event being 5.0) and in south Moravia region near Znojmo in 2000 (local magnitude ML = 2.5). These facts show that even in seismically quiet regions occurence of weak to moderate seismic events (with value of magnitude ranging from 3 to 5) could be expected.

The problem of the correlation of the global dynamic phenomenon “Chandler wobble” with the local dynamics in different parts of the Earth’s crust and lithosphere is wide of the solution. In this study, an attempt was made to approach the solution by analyzing the temporal variations of local seismic activity in the restricted geospace volumes (GSV) within the uniform seismoactive regions. The driver of Chandler wobble is the deep mantle – the most hard and most massive Earth’s layer, whose large inertia tensor value is able to keep up Chandler’s specific rotation of the Earth for a long time. We use the geocentric coordinate system where daily rotation is absent. In this system Chandler wobble is very slow rotation of the Earth around the current equatorial axis (the pole of which is denoted as EP14). Probably, this slow rotation can influence on the seismic events in the GSV. This influence is proposed to determine by the some statistical parameter EP14gsv that indicates the most typical position EP14 on equator when the most part of the earthquakes have occurred in the given GSV. For some geospace volumes the distribution indicates certain longitudes, where the number of seismic events is maximal or minimal.

The Earth's seismic activity (SA) demonstrates a distinct unevenness both in space and in time. The periods of intensification of seismic activity are followed by periods of its decline. In this work, an attempt was first made to determine the effect of low-frequency components of the variations in the angular velocity of the Earth's rotation (AVER) on the dynamics of its seismic activity (for 1720 – 2017). Analysis of the time series of the density of seismic events and variations in the Earth's rotation velocity of about 300 years shows that each stage of reducing the angular velocity of rotation (braking) is accompanied by an increase in the density of seismic events, and the stages of increasing the angular velocity of rotation (acceleration) are accompanied by a decrease in the density of events. At present, the Earth is entering a new phase of deceleration (since 2005), which in recent years has already led to an increase in the global seismic activity.

Weak natural seismic activity is known from the NE part of the Bohemian Massif. More than 2 200 tectonic events were recorded in this region on the basis of records of seismic stations operated by Institute of Physics of the Earth (IPE) during period 1996–2011. Since 2008 a relatively signifi cant seismic activity has been observed in epicentral area Lašťany situated SE of Šternberk. In this area, 221 tectonic events were observed during period September 2008 – December 2011. Local magnitude of strongest event reached value 2.

Sedimentation in Lake Baikal is significantly affected by continuous seismic activity in the Baikal Rift Zone. Our study shows that historical earthquakes, as well as recent seismic events, considerably influenced sedimentation in this deep tectonic basin. Here we present some of the results of extensive international research activities during the period of 1996–2019. To identify traces of seismic events in the uppermost sediments (<1.5 m), short cores were recovered from many coring stations throughout the entire lake. Based on lithological descriptions, measurements of magnetic susceptibility, and concentration of inorganic and organic components, we identified earthquake indicators in the sediment cores. Impacts of historical earthquakes were traced within South Baikal (near the Sharyzhalgai Station and the Station 106-km of the Circum-Baikal railway, hereafter CBR) and Proval Bay (near the Selenga River delta).

The main directions of development of seismic monitoring systems in underground mineral mining are analyzed. The expediency of passive registration of natural seismic activity is proved, which provides prediction of geodynamic phenomena by locating the centers of seismic events and determining their energy level. The methods of active seismic monitoring (seismic tomography, cross-borehole survey, recording of seismic signal from a rock-breaking tool) are technically more difficult to implement. The promising methods for processing seismic information are geolocation, neural network technology, cluster analysis, and integration with numerical stress–strain analysis of and changes in acoustic properties of rock mass. The configuration of the platform developed at VNIMI and the GITS seismic monitoring system, which includes from 6 to 12 three-component seismic sensors installed permanently in wells or on pedestals, is described. The detailed layouts of seismic sensors at recording points and in gateways in extraction panels are presented. The main technical characteristics of GITS are given: the signal frequency range is 0.1–1000 Hz, the minimum recorded signal level is 0.01 mV. The main test data of GITS in Komsomolskaya mine of Vorkutaugol are described: the average annual levels of seismic activity and energy of seismic events are found to be relatively stable; the relationship between seismic event with the maximum total energy and the alternating increment in the relative criterion is defined, and the local increase in the average energy of a single event in time from the moment the main roof caving is identified. Aimed to substantiate the regional and local prediction criteria of probability of geodynamic events caused by confining pressure, VNIMI implements integrated research in mines in different regions.
