Minister of Emergency Situations Armen Yeritsyan visited the
geophysical observatory in Garni today to familiarize with its
condition and discuss the perspectives of its reconstruction and
development. This unique research canter is meant for serious
geophysical and seismological studies.
No investments have been made in the observatory over the past 20
years. Programs of its reconstruction are being developed.
Re-launching of the observatory will allow to study the state of
the crust, the mechanisms of emergence of earthquakes and assess the
current seismic condition.
The IRIS station of the US Global Seismographic Network located here
since 1991 registers even the minor earthquakes in the world and
detects the secret nuclear tests.
The equipments of the observatory, which are in a working condition,
will be digitalized to develop it into a regional scientific center.
Financing will be provided stage by stage. Specialists have been tasked
to calculate the necessary expenses, which will total approximately
350 thousand.
