Abstract

Recent uplifts and depressions complicated by lineaments, many of which are faults, were found within the Caspian depression using complex structural and geomorphological studies, which included visual interpretation of different-scale topographic maps, as well as an analysis and computer processing of radar satellite images. In many respects, the latest dislocations correlate with the structures and sedimentary cover of the basement and are also determined by salt tectonics. Their formation is substantially influenced by the Ural Orogen and the Scythian plate is involved in the entire uplift at the latest stage.
