The active development of the Russian Arctic in the last 10 years requires relevant data on the bearing capacity of rocks on the Arctic shelf of the Russian Federation. To assess the bearing capacity of soils, knowledge of the distribution and state of permafrost on the Arctic shelf is needed. The article discusses the rationale and possibilities of the proposed integrated geocryological and geophysical analysis. The technique of researches includes realization of sea electroprospecting works, drilling on the shelf, thermometric observations in the drilled wells, bench tests of soils, modeling of electromagnetic and thermal fields on the shelf. It is shown that the most informative geophysical method for studying of permafrost on the shelf is electromagnetic sounding by the TEM method. The most informative geophysical method for studying of permafrost in the transit zone “land-shelf” represents the frequency electromagnetic (FS) sounding. In the article there are examples of standard interpretation of geophysical data and inversion of geophysical data in the mode of the fixed model specific electrical resistivity. With the example of the yamal shelf it is shown that standard interpretation doesn’t allow to receive the unambiguous solution of geocryologic tasks on the shelf. Specific electric results of determination of electric properties of soils in laboratory are necessary in case of inversion of geophysical data in the mode of thickly stratified models and the fixed model. An important component of the offered complex is boring and thermometric research which provide validation of results of geophysical inversion. Measurement of temperatures of soils in the stood wells is especially important in the conditions of the Arctic shelf. Calculations for thermal models complete a complex of researches. The collateral analysis of geoelectric and thermal models allows to estimate depths to a sole of permafrost and also capacities of gaseous-hydrate thicknesses. The use of the developed research complex on the Pechora, Karsky, Laptev and Chukchi seas shelves provided new insights into the distribution, continuity and condition of permafrost and the development of gas hydrates on the shelf of the Russian Arctic seas.

Today due to global climate change the Northern Sea Route is being formed along the northern coast of Russia as a new international maritime passage in the Arctic. Due to the rapid increase in the interest of regional and non-Arctic states, the scientific community and business to this transportation route, there is a need to study the prospects for cooperation between Russia and other countries on the development of the Northern Sea Route. The paper provides a detailed analysis of the interests of external players in the NSR area, taking into account the latest changes and events, while the author uses swot-analysis and a comparative analytical approach to conduct the study. The results of the study have shown that cooperation with some Arctic countries on the development of the NSR could bring mutual benefits: Canada and Russia would exchange experience on the development of similar sea routes, and Norway and Iceland would receive advantages as hubs on new routes. Non-regional countries, such as China, South Korea, Japan, Singapore and India, are interested in the NSR. For them, the Northern Sea Route is potentially shorter and safer compared to traditional routes, and it also allows to participate in projects located near its water area in science, energy and transport sectors. In turn, the participation of foreign partners is important for Russia, since it is usually accompanied by the active use of the route, the creation of large projects throughout its entire length, the attraction of serious funds, modern technologies and knowledge to the Arctic zone of the country.
