| Abstract: | The results of the analysis of crustal block movement obtained from the GPS data in 2009–2012 in the South Yakutia geodynamic testing area located at the junction of two major tectonic structures—the Aldan shield of the Siberian platform and the Stanovoi fold-block area—are presented. The drift of the block in the southeastern direction corresponds to the main azimuth of the strike of the activated fault systems and is consistent with the results of the geodetic observations performed in the 1970–1980s. Based on the periodic components of the complete displacement vector, hinge-type movements along the local faults are established. It is shown that, in the annual cycles, the rotational, oscillational, and translational movements of the block have a nonlinear character, and solitary strain waves are likely to be formed in the zones of activated faults. |
