Essay

The thesis deals with the morphogenesis and tectogenesis of the Latorytsia river basin. The structural morphometry technique has been applied to the Ukrainian Carpathians for the first time. The conventional technique has been adapted to GIS and a program module "Morphometry" has been designed. Stages have been fixed in the spatial distribution and numerical characteristics of neotectonic vertical movement amplitudes. The most informative structural-morphometric models have been defined for research into neotectonics and structural-tectonic features of regions with mountainous volcanic relief. The relief development processes have been reconstructed for Porkuletskyi nappe, Transcarpathian (Pienin) deep fault, Kuchavskyi volcano, for Syniak volcano and for Dekhmaniv volcano. Based on a complex interpretation of structural-morphometric models, geological, and geophysical data, the evolution and staging of tectogenesis have been reconstructed during the stages, with numerical and spatial characteristics of neotectonic vertical movement amplitudes being determined. A comparative analysis of the geomorphological and tectonic development of the Syniak and Dekhmaniv volcanic structures and their individual elements has been carried out. There has been shown high spatial and temporal differentiation in neotectonic vertical movement of six tectonic active structures. Impact analysis of geohazards has been carried out. The structural-morphometric analysis has shown the impact of neotectonic factor on exogenic hazards. A correlation between tectonic active zones and landslides has been determined.
