KNET Using KNET data in Scientific Research
Scientifics organizations
Institute of Seismology, National Academy of
Sciences of the Kyrgyz Republic Institute of
Physics and Mechanics of Rocks, National Academy
of Sciences of the Kyrgyz Republic Institute of
Seismology, Ministry of Education and Science,
Republic Kazakhstan Schmidt Institute of the
Physics of the Earth, Russian Academy of

California, San Diego (US) Massachsetts
Institute of Technology (US) International
Seismological Center (Thatcham, UK)
Subjects of researchs
The research connected with an opportunity of the
control of nuclear explosions and studying of a
threshold of their detection. Researches of deep
structures of the Earth. Distribution of seismic
waves velocities and velocity structures of the
Crust of Central Asia. Studying of focal
mechanisms and seismotectonics deformations and
etc. Wide band seismological studies (grading
records for studying distribution of seismic
waves, spectra of seismic signals etc).
Relationships between regional and global
seismicity, and between weak and strong events
occurring.

state angle)
Two regimes of STD Strike slip and Ttanspression
Study of distribution of seismic activity
Distribution of seismisity real, Puasson, Poya,
Gamma.

Resume

• Digital seismic network KNET is a good tool for
• World geoscience community
• Regional (Central Asia) seismologists and
  geophysisists.
• KNET is relevant for international collaboration
  under FDSN
