Boris Mavashev (Hebrew: בוריס מבשב, born 9 May 1939 in Tashkent) is an Israeli seismologist, doctor of geology and ecology, specializing in the geochemical and meteorological precursors of earthquakes.

Early life

Boris Mavashev was born on 9 May 1939 in Tashkent. In 1957, he entered the Tashkent state university, majoring in physics and technology. In 1962, he graduated and started working as a teacher of physics and electrical engineering at the university level.

Early studies

In 1965, Mavashev started full-time work at the Scientific Research Institute of Health Resorts in Tashkent to study the health resorts potential of Uzbekistan. At the physics laboratory there, he began studying the radioactivity of radium and radon, the electric conductivity, and the micro-constituent composition of therapeutic underground waters of Uzbekistan. He published scientific articles about radon waters and the variations in concentration in the mineral water of Tashkent in connection with the devastating Tashkent earthquake on 26 April 1966. He discovered the radon precursors of earthquakes; this method for the predicting of earthquakes was adopted by scientists in many countries.

In 1971, Mavashev successfully completed and defended his Ph.D. thesis. In 1977 he was awarded a State Prize and the Discovery Diploma 129. From 1975 to 1990, he worked as a senior scientific worker and head of the laboratory for studying the air basin ecology at the Central Asiatic Hydro-Meteorological institute and the Automobile Institute.

Study of earthquakes

On 4 April 1990, Mavashev and his family moved to Jerusalem. He joined the Machon Lev Technological Institute and at the Holon Institute of Technology.

He cooperated with the Institute of Geophysics and the Institute of Geology.

During the next 20 years, he prepared and submitted more than 15 scientific projects and published over 25 scientific studies in Israel, the US, Japan, and other countries. These were largely concerned with the topical contemporary problems of the prediction of earthquakes, and global climatic change and its connection with the activated seismicity on the Earth.

He worked on the patent application on the subject “Method for the prediction of earthquakes”.

He is an active member of the New York Academy of Sciences.

Global climate change

In 2004, Mavashev created the non-profit organization Center of science and education of Repatriates. Mavashev wrote a report on global climate warming and earthquakes.

Publications

Mavashev has published over 70 scientific papers on radioactivity of ground water, and the interconnections of global climate warming with earthquakes.
