Abstract
The paper shows the possibility of using the largest seismically induced paleolandslides for estimation of magnitude of generative earthquake, total volume of displaced material, and the contribution of seismically induced landslides to erosion. This approach is independent one in the context of traditional paleoseismological method. It may significantly improve the results of seismotectonic dislocations study and is an alternative method in case of bad preservation or absence of such dislocations. The method was tested in epicentral zone of Chuya eatrthquake (SE Altai).
