Paleoearthquakes in the Baikal Region: Methods and Results of Timing

摘要

Over the half-century history of seismological studies in the Baikal region, more than 70 seismo-tectonic or inferred seismic dislocations related to displacements along active faults have been established. Some of them have been studied in detail by trenching and methods of absolute and relative timing. The current work discusses the age of paleoearthquakes in the Baikal region and gives an overview of modern methods of dating of related dislocations.
