DETERMINATION OF RELATIVE INTENSITY AND ORIENTATION OF NEOTECTONIC MOVEMENTS WITHIN THE SOUTHERN PARTS OF VYMSKAYA DEPRESSION AND VYMA SHAFT BY THE MORPHOMETRIC METHODS
The results of morphometric analysis of the topography with the use of topographic maps of the scale 1: 100 000 are presented. Morphometric analysis on squares corresponding to the terrain of 36 km2 was performed. For each square, the amplitude of absolute heights and the coefficient of development of the relief are calculated. Based on the results of the research, a map of the vertical relief division and a map of the relief development were compiled. The relative intensity of neotectonic movements is determined, the regions with a descending and ascending type of relief development are identified, indicating a different intensity of late Quaternary tectonic movements. Changes in the intensity and direction of neotectonic movements in late Quaternary time are revealed. The correlation of morphometric data with the morphographic features of the river network has been carried out.
