Abstract
According to the records of superficial coda-waves from seismic events in the Kriviy Rig area receive value, quality factor (Q), frequency parameter (n) and attenuation factor (5) of seismic waves in earth's crust of northern part Ukrainian shield have been obtained. To determine the quality factor digital recording of seismic signals from the area of Kriviy Rig produced network of seismic observations of the Main center of the special control (MCSK) over the last 10 years were used. The resulting empirical relationship for the northern part of the Ukrainian shield Qc(f) was used to clarify the formula for calculating the magnitude of the surface on the Lg-wave. Based on these data, the conclusion on the present level of tectonic activity in the study areahas been made.

The age of monzonites of the eastern part of the Korsun-Novomirgorod pluton (Ingul megablock of the USh)
The article presents the results of monzonites research of the eastern part of Korsun-Novomirgorod pluton. The pluton is situated in the northwestern part of the Ingul megablock. Besides basic rocks varieties — gabbro-an...
Recent and paleo-stresses at the northern margin of the Black Sea and the Crimea Mountain in Meso-Cenozoic-Quarter (according to mechanisms of earthquakes foci and field tectonophysical data)
Recent stress fields at the northern margin of the Black Sea have been characterized on the base of 32 mechanisms of the earthquakes foci. Orientations of compression axes in the foci give evidence that present-day tecto...
