Abstract
The types and qualitative and quantitative characteristics of man-made phenomena in a significantly urbanized territory are largely determined not only by the man-made load, but mainly also by the fact that the earth's crust within this territory is in geological, structural-tectonic, geomorphological, engineering-geological, dynamic and other natural relations. About 1.5 million people live on the territory of one of the largest Yekaterinburg metropolis in Russia with an area of more than 1000 km2 and, having a complex surface relief, there are a huge number of gigantic industrial enterprises for various production purposes, a metro, four pond reservoirs. Consequently, the level of technogenic load on the geological environment is very high here. Therefore, relevant in scientific, practical and social-ecological relations is the task of studying its natural dynamic state in order to subsequently predict negative dynamic events within its limits in the form of man-made earthquakes, mountain impacts, etc. This is the problem of this article. In a substantive and methodological respect, the study of the natural dynamic state of the territory of the metropolis consists in the consideration and analysis of such important factors as: the geological and structural-tectonic structure of the geological environment, its seismicity, the nature of modern movements of the earth's surface and the natural stressed-deformed state due to tectonic and gravitational (density heterogeneity of the geological environment) forces.
