Significant Earthquake-Prone Areas in the Altai–Sayan Region

Resumo

This paper continues the series of our works on recognizing the areas prone to the strongest, strong, and significant earthquakes in different mountain countries with the use of the algorithmic Formalized Clustering And Zoning (FCAZ) system. In the paper, for the first time from this standpoint, we study the joint Altai–Sayan region, in which areas prone to significant earthquakes are recognized. A geological description of the concerned region is presented.
