Assessment of geodynamic risk of Mingachevir water reservoir

Abstract: The paper presents the results of the analysis of seismicity, tectonics and the manifestations of induced seismicity in the area of the Mingachevir reservoir for the period 2008-2017. Local earthquakes that occur when the Mingachevir reservoir is filled have insignificant magnitudesless than 2-2.5, tremors with a magnitude of 3.5 are less common. Epicenters are located mainly at a distance of no more than 5-10 km. Data analysis showed that seismic activity increases when the pressure reaches 78 m or more. Base… Show more

“…More attention was paid only to landslides around the shoreline of Mingachevir reservoir (Yetirmishli et al, 2018). Several planar slides on the limbs of the anticline, which are susceptible to reactivations triggered by fluctuations in water levels, have been documented, particularly along the southern bank of the Mingachevir reservoir in close proximity to the dam site (Kotyuzhan and Molokov, 1990;Bairamov et al, 1992;Islamova et al, 2019).…”

“…11a, the density of landslides on the Boz Dag anticline increases from both plunging noses of the anticline towards its central part. Although some landslides along the northern flank of the anticline may have originated due to groundwater rise related to the filling of the Mingachevir Reservoir in 1959 (Kotyuzhan and Molokov, 1990;Bairamov et al, 1992;Yetirmishli et al, 2018;Islamova et al, 2019), the distribution of landslides on both flanks of the anticline is clearly controlled by the local slope steepness and the dip of the beds. Landslides are completely absent on both low plunging noses of the anticline, and their occurrence is strictly confined to the highest central segment where the average dip of the beds exceeds 10 • (Fig.…”
