Реферат: | eng: Study of the sections of Neopleistocene-Holocene deposits filling the basins in central Gorny Altai has revealed earthquake-induced soft-sediment deformation (seismites). They formed as a result of the brittle deformation of deposits and liquefaction of loose water-saturated sediments under vibration seismic impact. The paleoearthquakes resulting in such seismites had the minimum intensity I = 6 and magnitude M = 5-6. Hence, the study region underwent strong earthquakes in the Neopleistocene-Holocene. © 2013.
