Abstract Historical hydrographic data (1940s–2010) show a distinct cross-slope difference of the lower halocline water (LHW) over the Laptev Sea continental margins. Over the slope, the LHW is on average warmer and saltier by 0.2°C and 0.5 psu, respectively, relative to the off-slope LHW. The LHW temperature time series constructed from the on-slope historical records are related to the temperature of the Atlantic Water (AW) boundary current transporting warm water from the North Atlantic Ocean. In contrast, the on-slope LHW salinity is linked to the sea ice and wind forcing over the potential upstream source region in the Barents and northern Kara Seas, as also indicated by hydrodynamic model results. Over the Laptev Sea continental margin, saltier LHW favors weaker salinity stratification that, in turn, contributes to enhanced vertical mixing with underlying AW.

According to the results of geophysical data interpretation considered the structural features of the Khatanga-Lomonosov fracture zones (HLZ), adapted to the strip joint part on the Laptev Sea continental margin with the structures of the spreading of the Eurasian basin and the Lomonosov ridge. Its reflection in anomalous geophysical fields, in a wave seismic picture on sections is shown on the example of separate links of HLZ and the character of its kinematic interrelations with heterogeneous tectonic elements is illustrated. The tectonic nature, role and place of this fault zone in the geodynamic evolution of the region are substantiated.

The work is devoted to the analysis of the geological structure of the northern continental margin of the Siberian Platform and the western part of the Laptev Sea. In terms petroleum geological zoning, the study area covers the Anabar-Khatanga and Lena-Anabar petroleum bearing areas of the Lena-Tunguska petroleum province and the West Laptev Sea promising petroleum province. Seismogeological models of sedimentary stratum on the continent and in the water area are considered; the conclusion was made that the Northern Siberian and Laptev Sea basins are separated by a large basement high that extends from the Taimyr Peninsula along the coastline to the Lena River issue. A complex analysis of geological and geophysical data made it possible to conclude that the most probable model is that the western part of the Laptev Sea is a continuation of the Siberian Platform with an Archaean-Proterozoic basement and an Upper Proterozoic-Phanerozoic sedimentary cover.
