Geomorphology of the Central Kamchatka Depression, the Kamchatka Peninsula, NE Pacific
Journal of maps(2023)
摘要
The Kamchatka Peninsula lies on the eastern active margin of Eurasia, adjacent to the Kuril-Kamchatka subduction zone. In this study, we provide a geomorphological map of the Central Kamchatka Depression - the largest sedimentary basin in Kamchatka and also in all the island arcs of the North Pacific. The depression extends along Kamchatka at latitudes & SIM;44-46 & DEG; N for more than 400 km and is up to 100 km wide. The geomorphological map of the Central Kamchatka Depression is designed at a scale of 1:500,000 and contains & SIM;3000 mapped objects. Volcanic and tectonic landforms have been collected from published sources and generalised to the map scale. Glacial and fluvial landforms have been mapped using remote sensing data and field geomorphological surveys. Areas of ambiguous interpretation have been outlined. This map is the most detailed geomorphological map published for this region that may guide further geomorphological and paleogeographical investigations.
