The establishment of relationships between sediment composition and
climatic - vironment in the sediment basin and subsequent evolution
of climate relates to the classical problems of fundamental
sedimentology. The widely known publications by the Russian
academicians N. M. Strakhov, A. B. Ronov, and A. P. Lisitsin are
dedicated to different aspects of this problem. In particular, the
monograph p- lished by A. P. Lisitsin "Sea-ice and iceberg
sedimentation in the Ocean: recent and past" (Lisitsin, 2002)
closely corresponds to the issues examined in this book. This
monograph discusses in detail the environments and means of
accumulations of recent marine and oceanic sediments in the ice
zone of sedimentation of the Ocean, however, much less attention is
given to the history of ice sedimentation, especially to
high-resolution paleoceanography. In the present work the authors
accepted the following basic principles: 1.
StudynotonlyoftheArctic, butalsooftheSubarctic,
especiallyofthoseregions, where there were conducted the original
studies by the authors. 2. Study of climatic history in uence ( rst
of all, - the glaciation evolution of NorthernHemisphere)on
sedimentationforthe last 130ka (MIS5e - MIS1)not only in the marine
periglacial environment (term of G. G. Matishov), but also in the
deep water areas and on the adjacent continental blocks. 3.
Imperative description of recent sedimentation environment for
subsequent - plication of the comparative-lithologicalmethod. 4.
Detailed consideration of accessible stratigraphic and
geo-chronometricdata for partition and correlation of various
sedimentary facies. Some of the above-mentionedprinciples require
further explanation.
