GEOMORPHOLOGICAL STRUCTURE OF THE CHUYA INTERMONTANE DEPRESSION (Gorny Altai)
View through CrossRef
A new model for the neotectonic evolution of the Chuya intermontane depression in Gorny Altai is a result of detailed geomorphological studies. A regional compression along the submeridional axis is the basis of the model. This compression sequentiaUy causes formation of a system of ridges with a trough-like sedimentation basin between them, division of this basin into separate basins as a result of shearing displacement of ridges, and division of the ridges into blocks, which is accompanied by sediment crumpling in the marginal sections of the Chuya sedimentation basin.
