Hydrogeological Conditions of the Meshchera Depression and Their Connection with the Latest Tectonic Structure of the Region

This article presents the results of a study of the geological structure, recent tectonics, and hydrogeological conditions in the central part of the Meshchera Depression, located on the border of the Moscow, Ryazan, and Vladimir regions. The detailed characterization of the latest structure of the Klepiki trough has made it possible to identify young growing uplifts that influence the structure and morphology of the trough. Causes of the intensive swampiness of the territory and change in the orientation of the trough from meridional to latitudinal one have been determined. Our studies have proven the influence of the latest tectonics of the trough on the hydrogeological conditions of the territory. It has been established that groundwater recharge and discharge areas can be localized within the Klepiki trough.
