Tectonic features study at the Terek-Kuma lowland using karst and suffusion phenomena distribution

Abstract

Clusters of karst and suffusion landforms are proved to be confined to deep fault zones and their cross-sections. The karst and suffusion landforms distribution may be used as an indicator of tectonic faults. Some deep faults position has been specified within the limits of the Terek-Kuma lowland using the technique.
