2. REVIEW AND DISCUSSION: THE LEGAL FRAMEWORK DEFINED BY THE LAW OF THE SEA | Kazmin, Macnab |
a) Article 76: methodology for delimiting the continental shelf beyond 200 nautical miles | |
b) Article 77: rights of the coastal state with respect to resources of the continental shelf | |
c) Article 123: cooperation of states bordering enclosed or semi-enclosed seas as they exercise their rights and perform their duties | |
d) Annex II: commission on the limits of the continental shelf | |
e) Short summary | General discussion |
3. BASIC DESCRIPTIONS | |
a) Main geological features and peculiarites of the Arctic Ocean structure and evolution | Pogrebitsky |
b) Geological nature of the main morphological structures of the Arctic Ocean | Jackson |
c) Geomorphological analysis of sea bed relief in the Arctic Ocean | Gramberg, Naryshkin |
d) Scientific investigations inthe Arctic Ocean from submarines | Coakley |
e) Gas and oil resources of the Arctic Ocean | Gramberg, Suprunenko, Lazurkin |
f) Exchange processes in the Arctic Ocean | Raskatov |
4. PRESENTATIONS AND DISCUSSION: IMPLEMENTING ARTICLE 76 |
|
a) Identifying 'natural prolongations': known or inferred nature of the Chuckchi Borderlands, the Mendeleyev Ridge, the Alpha Ridge and the Lomonosov Ridge, and their relationships to the continental margin | |
Poselov, Macnabb) Determining the foot of the slope: methodologies for tracing the point of maximum change in the sea floor gradient | Naryshkin, Solodov |
c) Determining the 2500-m contour: measuring bathymetry accurately in the deep ocean | Naryshkin, Solodov |
d) Determining the 'Gardiner Line': identifying points where thicknes of sedimentary rock is at least 1% of the distance back to the foot of the slope | Poselov |
e) Results of completed and/or current investigations: work that has been done to date for shelf edge delimitation beyond 200 nautical miles | Sorokin, Macnab |
f) Proposed investigations for Article 76 purposes, including field work; prospects for international collaboration | General discussion |
5. PRESENTATIONS AND DISCUSSION: DATA BASE TOPICS | |
a) Status of existing data bases: bathymetric and sediment thickness observations available for determing the foot of the continental slope, the 2500-m isobath, and the so-called 'Gardiner Line' | Solodov, Narishkyn, Jackson, Madsen, Brekke, Macnab |
b) Prospects for consolidating and rationalizing current data bases from various national and public domain archives | General discussion |
6. DISCUSSION (TIME PERMITTING): RELATED TOPICS | Kazmin, Macnab |
a) Submissions to the UN Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf b) Potential seabed resources beyond 200 nautical miles c) Environmental management/stewardship |
