Morphology of the consolidated basement of the Polish Carpathians in the light of magnetotelluric data

Abstract

The morphology of the surface of the consolidated basement of the Carpathians has been analyzed using magnetotelluric sounding. This surface has an extensive regional slope trending northwest-southeast. In the Krynica - Wysowa region it is broken and the western part has been moved around 45 km to the south. South of the recognized slope. the consolidated basement of the Carpathians reaches a depth of 17 km. This may be the southern boundary of unmetamorphosed platform deposits under the Carpathians.
