Medvedeva Schmidt Institute of Physics of the Earth (IPE), Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS), Bol’shaya Gruzinskaya ul. 10, Moscow, 123995 Russia e-mail: [email protected] Received December 17, 2007 Abstract—The paper discusses problems of seismic zoning of the Kaliningrad region, where a series of per- ceptible earthquakes occurred in 2004; the strongest event had a magnitude of Ms = 4.3 and produced shakings of an intensity of 6 in the coastal zone of the Sambiiskii Peninsula, classified as a 5-intensity zone. The enhanced seismic effect is shown to be caused by bad ground conditions, long-term action of seismic effects, resonance phenomena, and other factors. To gain additional constraints on the seismic hazard degree in the Kaliningrad region, the paper discusses an improved version of the model of earthquake sources underlying the compilation of normative maps of seismic zoning (OSR-97). Modified fragments of OSR-97 probability maps of the Kaliningrad region are constructed at different levels of probability that the seismic effect indicated in the maps will be exceeded over 50 yr. It is shown that additional seismological investigations should be con- ducted in this region. PACS numbers: 91.30.Px DOI: 10.1134/S1069351308090012 1.

The Spatial Transformation of the Urban Environment in the Conditions of Post Industrial Development of Society: Dedicated to the 100th Anniversary of Jean Gottmann, Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University, 23-26 August 2015, Russia. The Spatial Development of the Rural Settlement of East Prussia: Kaliningrad Region Andrey V. Levchenkov1, Ivan S. Gumenyuk2* 1Department of Geography, Environmental Management and Spatial Development, Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University, Alexander Nevskogo, Kaliningrad, Russia, 2Department of Social and Economic Geography and Geopolitics, Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University, Alexander Nevskogo, Kaliningrad, Russia. *Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT The present system of displacement of the Kaliningrad region’s population results from a complicated historical process, during which the socio- economic, geopolitical and cultural conditions were repeatedly changed in which it was established. An analysis of the changes taking place at that time and now provides the basis for the preparation of forecasts of further transformation of the region’s spatial environment, one of the most important tasks for specialists of the contemporary geographical science. In the publication, the authors examine the key historical stages of the creation of the modern system of displacement of the region’s population and identify the key economic, political and social factors that had an impact on the process at various historical stages of development of East Prussia until 1945 and the contemporary Kaliningrad region. The so-called Nizhnenemanskaya lowland area was chosen as a local example of the transformation processes of the modern part of the Slavsk municipal district (north of the Kaliningrad region).
