«Mosaic» of mountain ranges helped to determine the zones of seismic activity of the Tien Shan

The press service of the Russian Science Foundation (RSF) published a press release based on the results of an interview with a team of authors of the publication of the Laboratory of Deep Magnetotelluric Research of the RS RAS «VOLUMETRIC AND SPATIAL SEGMENTATION OF THE TIEN SHAN LITHOSPHERE ACCORDING TO GEOPHYSICAL DATA». The work was published in the scientific journal Geodynamics and Tectonophysics in September 2021, indexed by the international database Scopus of the third quartile (Q3). «Employees of the Research Station RAS in Bishkek (Kyrgyzstan) have summarized the currently scattered geological models describing the tectonic structure of the Tien Shan, and built on their basis maps of the location of individual elements of the mountain complex». This news was posted on the website of the Russian Science Foundation, and in the accounts of the Foundation in social media.

MTS Group News

  In the period from August 24 to September 08, the MTS Group consisting of 4 brigades carried out work on two profiles in the Kochkor district of Naryn region, Ukok-2 and Chon-Tuz. On the profile "Ukok-2", which is located south of Kochkorka village, team No. 1 and team No. 2 carried out work on magnetotelluric sounding (MTS) at 11 points. At 10 observation points, the duration of the MT field registration in the MTS mode was 16-18 hours, at the FT21 observation point in the DMTS mode, the duration of observations was about 300 hours.

  The work was carried out using Phoenix MTU-5 measuring complexes in the normal registration mode. The start of work was preceded by calibrations of recorders and sensors of MT stations. In all observation points, a control recording of at least 40 minutes was preceded to assess the level of interference and the settings of the parameters for recording the working record. The electrical components of MT field were measured using measuring devices with electric dipoles 50 m. long. The magnetic field components were measured using MTC-50 induction sensors. At all sounding points, the grounding of the dipoles was carried out using non-polarizing electrodes, the grounding of dipoles was carried out on the principle of “sensor to sensor” with previous years of observations. The orientations of measuring installations at these points completely repeated the previous deployments.
