Abstract

We present results of complex numerical modeling of Late-Cenozoic landscape evolution of normal-fault scarps by the example of Svyatoy Nos Upland (Baikal Basin). For modeling we used the programs CHILD and BFS (by Greg Tucker) including algorithms of tectonical, fluvial and hillslope processes. Models showed the good correlation with real relief. These results confirm consistency of evolution’s scenario which we suggested. Also we defined some features of relief development of territory.
