Solmaz Aghayeva, PhD
Solmaz Tofiq qizi Aghayeva, a dedicated scientist in the fields of geology and mineralogy, was born on July 3rd, 1956, in Baku. She completed her studies in geological prospecting at the Azerbaijan Institute of Oil and Chemistry (now known as the Azerbaijan State Oil and Industry University) in 1978.
For over four decades, she held various positions at the Geological Institute of the Azerbaijan National Academy of Sciences (now the Institute of Geology and Geophysics of ANAS). Ağayeva earned her candidacy in 1999 with her dissertation on the "Elastic Stress Fields of Seismogenic Structures on the Southern Slope of the Greater Caucasus (Azerbaijan Territory)."
Throughout her career, she led and participated in significant scientific and technical projects commissioned by national and international organizations. Her research focused on understanding the mechanisms behind earthquakes in Azerbaijan, assessing stress conditions in the Earth's crust, and developing seismic zoning theories.
Ağayeva played a pivotal role in advancing seismology education in Azerbaijan. She taught courses on marine geophysical research methods, Earth's crust theory, and seismic zoning to master's students at Baku State University since 2013.
Her dedication to training highly skilled professionals and her contributions to over 40 scientific articles have left a lasting impact on the field of geology and mineralogy in Azerbaijan. Solmaz Tofiq qizi Ağayeva's legacy continues to inspire future generations of scientists.
We believe that supporting young Azerbaijani researchers in seismology is the best way to honor Solmaz Aghayeva's legacy and contribute to the future of seismic exploration.
