Arctic Pleistocene History And The Development Of Submarine Permafrost

en Limba Engleză Hardback – mai 2019

The regional distribution, composition, structures, thermal state and regime, thermophysical characteristics, and dynamics of temperature changes of submarine permafrost are considered, based on Eurasiatic shelf data. The origin and development of permafrost is closely connected with the specifics of Arctic Basin development during the Pleistocene

Descriere

The origin and development of permafrost is closely connected with the specifics of Arctic Basin development during the Pleistocene and Holocene. The author proposes a new hypothesis of complete isolation of the Arctic Ocean during the glaciations.
