Chemical composition of bottom sediments from the Kara Sea and estuaries of the Ob and Enisey Rivers

Data obtained during Cruse 49 of R/V Dmitry Mendeleev and of post-cruise studies.

(Table 4) Chemical composition of a hydrothermal body from the Red Sea rift zone

The main features of geological structures of ocean rift zones based on results of studies of the P.P. Shirshov Institute of Oceanology with use of manned submersibles "Pisces" are under consideration in the book. Multiyear experience of geological exploration in rift zones with the use of these submersibles is summarized. Methodology of underwater operations is described. The main structural features of the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden rifts as well as the rift zone of the Reykjanes Ridge are considered.

Geological map of HANSSONHORNA, Heimefrontfjella, Antarctica (Scale 1:25,000)

Topographic data of this geological map were obtained through stereoscopic aerial photo interpretation. The photogrammetric photo flights were undertaken in 1986 by the Institut für Angewandte Geodäsie, Frankfurt. Horizontal ground control points required for aerial photo interpretation were determined by means of Doppler satellite observation during the 2nd German Neuschwabenland Expedition 1985/86. Vertical ground control points were taken from unpublished map drafts at 1:100 000 scale by Norsk Polarinstitutt, Oslo. The elevation above mean sea level was transferred to Heimefrontfjella barometrically. For this reason assertions concerning the absolute elevation (referred to sea level) are uncertain. Contours and spot heights presented on the map were obtained from the photogrammetric evaluation of the photography taken in 1986; relative elevation data (hight differences) are accurate to approximately ±10 m.
