Abstract—
The Chukchi Borderland is a tectonic unit of the eastern part of the Arctic continental margin of Eurasia that is part of the complex of the Central Arctic rises, along with the Lomonosov Ridge, the Alpha‒Mendeleev Rise, the Podvodnikov, Chukchi and Mendeleev basins. The study provides data on the structure of the Chukchi Borderland and the surrounding geological structures, morphology and geology, uses bathymetric materials, seismic materials from CDP and deep seismic survey, sampling and drilling data. A review of materials on the study region was carried out. The latest results of geomorphological analysis of bathymetric data and 3D modeling of the Earth’s crust of the study region using geophysical data are presented. To explain the identified features of the morphology and deep structure of the Chukchi Borderland, a tectonic model is proposed that explains the deep mechanisms of its formation and adjacent structures, as well as a structural-tectonic scheme of the Arctic Alaska–Chukotka microplate, which presents the morphological and geological connection of the Chukchi Borderland with the continental shelf.
期刊介绍:
Geotectonics publishes articles on general and regional tectonics, structural geology, geodynamics, and experimental tectonics and considers the relation of tectonics to the deep structure of the earth, magmatism, metamorphism, and mineral resources.
