With the support of the USA, a seismic station for studying earthquakes was built in Jizzakh

On May 3 of this year, a new modern seismic station was installed in Karasoy, located near the city of Jizzakh, in cooperation with the University of California (UCSD) in San Diego (USA) and the Republican Center for Seismological Prediction and Monitoring under the FVV of Uzbekistan.

As part of the US Global Seismic Network of more than 150 stations around the world, this station is funded by the US government. It is maintained and trained by the UCSD International Accelerometer Deployment Program with support from the US National Science Foundation.

Data from the station can be used to locate earthquakes and reduce the risks they pose, which is important for public safety and basic science.
