Annotation
Deformation characteristics of the Caucasian seismically active region and of the adjacent areas of East Тurkey and West Iran are determined. Seismotectonic deformation rate tensors, deformation rate intensities, and orientation of the main axes of compression and extension deformations are calculated for the first time. Seismic risk zones are identified in the areas of minimum deformation rate intensities.
