Abstract

This paper presents the results of study of seismically induced variations in helium concentration in groundwater in the southern Baikal region. Unlike previous studies, data were obtained not only in Baikal deepwater but also in artesian wells in the southern Baikal region. The correlation coefficients between the data obtained at these observation stations, indicator functions, and an integrated indicator functions were calculated. They provide an objective assessment of time variations in concentrations due to changes in the stress-strain state of the Earth's crust related to earthquake preparation and hence permit one to predict the time of an earthquake.
