Structure and evolution of the northern Barents-Kara Sea continental margin from integrated analysis of potential fields, bathymetry and sparse seismic data

Abstract: SUMMARY The northern Barents–Kara Sea continental margin is a poorly investigated area because of a permanent ice cover hampering seismic exploration. The available geological and geophysical data show that the magma‐poor margin developed in response to early Cenozoic break‐up and subsequent opening of the Arctic Eurasia Basin. In this study, a series of crustal‐scale geotransects illustrating the architecture of the continental margin are constructed using sparse seismic reflection profiles and a gravity inve… Show more

“…The dislocation in the 15-20 km wide fault zone, with normal faults dipping at about 20 • , reaches values up to 2000 m (Geissler and Jokat, 2004). Minakov et al (2012) published a series of crustal-scale transects illustrating the architecture of the margin based on sparse seismic reflection lines and gravity modeling. Their gravity inversion supports a narrow and steep continent-ocean transition.…”

“…The split off of the elongated and about 1500 km long crustal splinter of the Lomonosov Ridge from the North Barents Sea continental margin and its eastern prolongation, the Kara Sea continental margin, is difficult to be explained with current rifting models. An episode of shear or oblique extension has been suggested before breakup to explain the observed narrow symmetric conjugate margins in the Eurasia Basin (Minakov et al, 2012(Minakov et al, , 2013. (Jakobsson et al, 2012).…”

“…IBCAO has since served as the base bathymetry for numerous ocean circulation modeling experiments (e.g., Maslowski and Walczowski, 2002;Padman and Erofeeva, 2004;Maltrud and McClean, 2005;Manizza et al, 2011) and in projects involving direct analyses of the Arctic Ocean seafloor or where detailed analyses of higher resolution local bathymetric surveys must be placed in a regional context (e.g., Minakov et al, 2012;Rajan et al, 2012). At the time of release of the latest IBCAO Version 3.0 in 2012, approximately 11% of the Arctic Ocean seafloor had been mapped with modern multibeam echo sounders (Jakobsson et al, 2012), which shows that the work of describing the Arctic Ocean seafloor is still in its infancy.…”
