Seismicity and seismic hazard of the Carpathian region of Ukraine

Seismic hazard problems in the Carpathian region of Ukraine are considered. By analysis of seismological and structure-geological data estimates of maximum seismic shakeability are obtained. It is shown that an earthquakes with intensity by 1 - 7 may be occur with the probability of 0.001 on the territory of Ukrainian part of the Eastern- European platform's edge and Forecarpathian depression, and with intensity by I = 8 - in Transcarpathian region and near by Carpathian mountains.
