The main task was to study the properties of the tectonic structures in the northern part of the Russian plate and to evaluate their effect on the environmental changes (biosphere, an atmosphere, and hydrosphere). Our data prove that the tectonic structures have an effect on the environment due to the induced currents, deep degassing, and changes in structure of pressure pattern. We observe an ‘effect - response’ system that means that while changes in a geomagnetic field and atmospheric pressure effect the stress-strain state of the geologic environment, the environment effects the solar and meteorological parameters alike. Research in energy characteristics of the tectonic disturbances (geomagnetic variations, atmospheric pressure, and deep degassing) and their relations with the environmental conditions allowed the authors to distinguish zones of biologic discomfort.

Keywords: cross of faults, degassing, induced currents, variations in geomagnetic fields.
