The types and endodynamics of morphostructures in northeastern Asia

Some issues relating to typological and taxonomic morphostructural regionalization of northeastern Asia are discussed. For each morphogenetic type of morphostructures we identified its own set of morphological, genetic and endodynamical indices. Of fundamental importance among the numerous attributes of a high endodynamical and seismic hazard are: the tendencies of tectonic movements and their amplitudes, and the degree of contrast of structural-material complexes and of tectonic and geomorphological forms of morphostructures.
