Abstract:
Secular changes of the lithospheric electric conductivity were analyzed based on the monitoring data of the Earth's electric field over the period from 2001 to 2014. Those measures were carried out in Verchniya Paratunka, Tundroviy, and Shipunskiy that are located alongside the coastline of the Avacha Bay of Kamchatka and where the catastrophic earthquake is to be expected according the long-term forecast. It is noticed that the changes in behavior of the secular movements of the lithospheric electric conductivity sannual average values represented with changes at along and transverse directions of the seismic focal zone extension. A great many of such changes were detected on the Shipunskiy peninsula.
Keywords:lithosphere, time series conductivity monitoring.
