Description / Table of Contents:
The 'Paleogeographic Atlas of the Shelf Regions of Eurasia for the Mesozoic and Cenozoic' (Volume 2) is the result of a joint project between the Geological Institute of the Academy of Sciences (USSR) and The Robertson Group plc (UK). [...] The maps, which show the paleogeographic evolution of the Eurasian Shelves throughout the Mesozoic and Cenozoic, were drawn on the basis of knowledge gained over many years of geological study together with the application of the data from remote sensing, seismic profiling, and sea-bed drilling and sampling. Unique paleogeographic maps of shelves and coastal areas of the Arctic and the Northeast of the USSR have been included in the Atlas Volume which, until the present time, were unknown to national geological surveys and private companies. [...] The explanatory text (Volume 1) to the 'Paleogeographic Atlas of the Shelf Regions of Eurasia for the Mesozoic and Cenozoic' is to be considered as descriptive back-up information to the map collection.
