scientific project on cave morphology and tectonic movements



 



Dr. Alex Dudashvili  and the Fund of Preservation and Exploration of Caves are leading a scientific project with the Kyrgyz-Russia Slavic University The aim of the project is  to estimate of paleoearthquake frequency in the Kyrgyzstan area  and get more data  on the frequency or recurrence of the ancient earthquakes which shook  Central Asia. Scientists try   to understand  the  correlation of cave morphology with tectonic movements and  to improve   interpretation and reconstruction of paleo-seismic events .
 Sponsors, partners and scientists interested in the project are  most welcome !

The UIS Symbols

The International Union of Speleology has been working for several decades to propose standardized symbols that can be used to describe surface phenomena, to make plans of caves and artificial cavities and recently to ensure the conservation of the underground environment. Work has just been done to provide access to all this information at a single address https://ontology.uis-speleo.org/symbols/ Each symbol has its own URL and can be accompanied by detailed information
