INTERMEDIATE DEPTH EARTHQUAKES DISTRIBU TION AND THEIR FOCAL MECHANISM IN VRANCEA ZONE, ROMANIA

Abstract

In this paper, on the basis of the earthquakes catalog cave­ring the time interval from 1982 to 1997 and comprising fault plane solutions, we analyze the distribution of the seismic activity on the Romanian territory. At the same time, the stress field characteri­stics, deduced from the available fault piane solutions, are investi­gated for different depth intervals [...]
