Description

Neotectonic activity intensity is an important criteria for evaluating high level radioactive waste repository. The guiding ideology,methods and application of neotectonic study are elaborated in the paper. According to comparison research between the south and north part of east Tianshan area, the south part of east Tianshan is regarded as relative stable or relative weak in neotectonic movement in Neogene period and was selected as preselection area for high level radioactive waste repository.
