Abstract

Tree-dimensional non-stationary geothermal and thermoelastic models of the Caucasus and the Black and the Caspian seas is developed and their geological-geophysical interpretation is given. Till 410 Ma temperature field was defined on the basis of the stationary model of the investigated region. Afterwards, from the period of formation of the most part of the sedimentary cover, computations were carried out on the basis of non-stationary thermal model. On the basis of thermal field the thermoelastic equations are solved and charts of vertical thermo-displacements have been calculated.
