Estimation of Eco–Geodynamic Risk in the Region of the Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant Using GPS Data

Daiva Levinskaitė

Abstract


The purpose of this work is to appreciate spatial strains and stresses in the territory of Ignalina nuclear power plant region using data on geodetic observation. The methodology of calculating Earth‘s crust spatial strains and changes in stresses is submitted. The obtained results reveal the new parameters of spatial strains and changes in geodynamic stress in the territory of Ignalina nuclear power plant region. Spatial strains vary from –3,005·10–6 to 1,065·10–6 and changes in geodynamic stress from –0,2065 MPa to 0,0976 MPa.
