The influence of gas-bearing structures on the thickness of cryogenic strata of Jamal Peninsula
Cryogenic strata of the north of West Siberia is regarded as a single cryogenic formation of the Middle and Late Neopleistocene and Holocene that occurred on the background of the rhythms of transgression-regression of the polar basin during cyclic changes of the harsh climate. On the basis of the current data the new ideas about the development of cryogenic strata in subaerial and submarine environments are formulated, the influence of gas accumulation layer in the thickness of cryogenic strata is demonstrated in the section and on the area of the gas-bearing structures.
