塔斯社1977年7月14日题为《探测帕米尔》和同年10月13日题为《“世界屋脊”下的发现》两篇电讯报道了帕米尔—喜马拉雅山系的地震探测。据称,不久前,在帕米尔和喜马拉雅山脉发生了火山现象过程。残余的火山发源地还在100—200公里的深处继续沸腾。当前实践中唯一是借助于爆炸对地壳和上地幔进行测深。塔吉克斯坦科学院付院长拉·巴拉托夫说,测深爆炸是研究行星地壳和上地幔的一种最有效的方法。地震测深证明, The Tass news agency, entitled “Detecting Pamir”, July 14, 1977, and the discovery entitled “Roofs of the World,” October 13, the same year, reported two earthquakes in the Pamir-Himalayas. Not long ago, volcanic phenomena took place in Pamir and the Himalayas. The remaining volcanoes continue to boil 100-200 km deep. The only current practice is to explode the crust and upper mantle by means of explosions. La Balatov, president of the Tajikistan Academy of Sciences, said that sounding explosions are one of the most effective ways to study the earth’s crust and upper mantle. Seismic sounding proved that,
