Study of the Depth Structure of Seismically Active Zones by the Method of Magnetotelluric Sounding

Abstract

The paper presents the results of the analysis of data from magnetotelluric soundings performed in 2003-2020. A comparison of geoelectric models for the Chui and Kochkor basins of the Northern Tien Shan is shown. The main objective of the study is to identify patterns in the distribution of geoelectric inhomogeneities in the deep structure of the Bishkek geodynamic test site. Particular attention in geoelectric models was paid to the study of key objects of transition zones from mountain ranges to intermontane basins. The nature of crustal electrical conductivity anomalies is considered.
