Современная геодинамика Альпийского орогенного пояса Южной Европы

Аннотация

Morphostructural interrelations and spatial-temporal characteristics of recent geodynamics of the Alpine orogens of Europe are discussed using data of repeated levelling and mareographic measurements. Recent movement’s fields reveal block differentiation of morphostructures as well as conjugation of contrasting blocks along faultlines and lineaments. Lateral displacement rates usually exceed considerably those of vertical movements, which conform to the plate tectonics concept. Recent geodynamics is of oscillatory-wave nature, the movement’s rate and direction changing within short time intervals. A general map is compiled showing recent vertical movements within the Alpine orogenous belt of the southern Europe, the map is based on regional materials.
