Pseudosesmodislocations in the mountains near Magadan

Abstract

Some authors describe large gravitational paleoseismodislocations in the Dukchinskie mountains. The detailed investigations in this area have shown these objects to be the typical manifestations of the glacial morphogenesis - they are glacial bars of Late Pleistocene glaciation and have nothing in common with gravitational paleoseismodislocations. The main diagnostic features of the latter forms were determined; they can help to distinguish these forms reliably from the similar exogenous landforms.
