Аннотация:The seismic field of the Garm area contains a series of relatively narrow
seismogenic zones tilted at moderate angles and traceable to depths of 20-30
km. They can be identified with tectonic overthrust faults reconstructed by
geologic features widespread in this territory. These elements of tectonic
and seismic structure are believed to be key factors in the seismotectonics of
the Garm area, which is a part of the juncture zone between Pamir and Tien
Shan. The existence of subvertical tectonic faults cutting through the crust
in this territory is brought into doubt.
