Background. In addition to anthropogenic activities affecting the environment, geological hazards pose significant risks to the natural environment, as well as to human population, buildings, and infrastructure. In the Caspian region, geological hazards are primarily associated with geodynamic activity and dissipation of fluid-dynamic stress within the hydro- and lithodynamic flow systems in the subsurface, which manifests in the form of intense upward flows of mobile fluids that significantly i
