source mechanism

Relative locations of the two groups of 2005–2006 Mukacheve series of recurrent earth­quakes were determined using an algorithm designed based on an assumption that a grade of cross-correlation between the records of recurrent events at the same station decays exponentially with separation between their sources, the locations turning out to arrange into almost a flat surface in each of the groups.

Three groups of recurrent earthquakes have been identified within the Mukacheve series of 2005–2006. After relocation with application of differential arrivals and station terms their sources arranged into almost a vertical plane along the azimuth of ~120°, approximately coinciding with a plane of normal faulting determined for all the earthquakes as a single source mechanism.
