To the Assessment of Geodynamic Regimes of Volcanic Centers

Common features of the relief of the Nevado del Ruiz and Elbrus volcanoes have been revealed, which can be largely explained by the similarity of the geodynamic regimes of these volcanic centers. The established general patterns of orientation of lineaments, watercourses, elongation lines, configuration of ring elements of interpretation, as well as the modern seismic regime of the studied areas complement the ideas about the deep structure and state of magmatic feeding systems, emphasizing the need to control the nature of weak seismicity in the immediate vicinity of the Elbrus volcanic structure to clarify its volcanic hazard.
