Modern transformation of the continental margin of the Black Sea near the village of Dzhubga

Аннотация

Detailed studies of the bottom topography were performed in the Russian Sector of the Black Sea near the village of Dzhubga. A bathymetric chart and survey profiles of the shelf and continental slope were compiled. The topography of the shelf edge is shown in the projection on a vertical plane that gives an idea about the role of neotectonics in the transformation of the continental shelf in the studied region. Morphological elements of the shelf were formed in subaerial conditions under the action of abrasion, denudation, and accumulation.
