Abstract
Map of thickness of the sedimentary cover of the Arctic Ocean is based on the results of analysis and reprocessing of multi-channel seismic reflection and wide-angle refraction/reflection data collected by both Russian and foreign researchers. It can serve as a factual basis for further tectonic constructions and predictive hydrocarbon estimations. This digital map of the sedimentary cover thickness differs from the previous maps of this region by significantly better detail - for making it a much larger amount of new seismic data has been used. This map is a new stage in the process of compiling and analyzing seismic data obtained in the Arctic Ocean. No doubt it will be refined and improved as new geological and geophysical data appears.
