It is the wide fault zone (some hundred km) that has been created in Paleozoic or Precambrian. The series of morphostrucures of central type (MCF) or "ring-morphostructures" have been identified here. They are from 500 - 800 km to 20 - 30 km in diameter, and have different structure, age, origin, morphology and geological history. MCT are principal modern structural elements of the earth’s crust and the study on them are producing new geological-geomorphological data and new ideas about structure and evolution of the region. MCT was created in Precambrain-Phanerozoic and experienced repeatedly tectonic-magmatic activation during their long-term history. Amur -Songhua-Huanghe Lineament is a seismic active linear structure both in China and in Russia, especially in the areas of intersections with deep faults of gigantic MCT of East Asia. The authors propose that a continental margin extension process, continuing from Paleozoic (Precambrian?) is a major factor in the morphostructural development of the Amur-Songhua-Huanghe Lineament. The received materials may be used for investigations in prospecting geology and geomorphology, studies on natural resources and for decision of other applied problems.展开更多

The compiled morphostructural map ( scale 1 : 1000000) shows a three-level hierarchical structure of blocks, boundary zones, and nodes. The identified nodes are classified with the pattern-recognition algorithm CORA-3 into those that are prone to generate M≥5.0 earthquakes and those that are not. Some of the earthquake-prone nodes coincide with epicenters of M ≥ 5.0 earthquakes that have occurred ; others may coincide with such events in the future.展开更多
