Deformational structures and stress field of the south-western Crimea in the context of the evolution of Western-Black basin
The purpose of this paper is to describe and analyze the deformations of the mesolevel (slickensides, fractures, faults) in the rock complexes of different age, to reconstruct the stress fields which corresponds to them. The results of interpretation will be compared with the previous studies as well as with known seismic sections and with earthquake focal mechanisms of Crimean-Caucasian seismogenic zone , analyzing them in the context of tectonic evolution of Western-Blak Sea Basin. To define the tectonic stages, specifying the age of deformation. Methodology.
