No M≥3 earthquake has
been recorded by the NSSP seismic stations in the territory
of Armenia in the referred period. No seismic activity was
recorded in this region.
National observation network has recorded 9 anomaly changes
of various parameters at 8 observation stations. Those stations
are as follows: Surenavan, Karchaghbyur, Tsovagyugh and Ararat
(geochemistry), Shirakamut, Vanadzor, Parakar and Vardenis
(subsoil radon), Karchaghbyur (underground water) that are
mainly located across the central territory of Armenia, mainly
in Yerevan, Pambak-Sevan and Sotk active fault lines.
No M6 earthquake has been recorded in the region.
The following strong earthquakes were recorded off the region.
On March 6 in Indonesia, 50km to the northeast from Padangh
town of Sumatra island a strong M6.4 earthquake was occurred.
2 hours later at the same epicenter it was followed by another
M6.3 strong earthquake. The earthquake resulted in more than
70 people dead, lifelines were damaged and more than hundred
buildings were destroyed. Being afraid of possible tsunami
a number of local residents left the seashore. However, according
to the comments of seismologists there is no tsunami risk
in the island as the depth of earthquake hypocenters is 30-35km.
The earthquakes were recorded in Singapore and Malaise that
are 430 km far form the earthquake zone. People still remember
the destructive earthquake on December 2004 and the tsunami
followed by it, which resulted in about 230 thousand people
dead. The Indonesia is considered to be a seismic active zone
where strong earthquakes are often occurred.
