Аннотация:Analysis of the morphometric characteristics from a study of the Barents Sea seabed has shown that the existing troughs are consistent with geodynamic conclusions, allowing morphological typing into structural slopes and reconstruction of their origin. Thus, the Norwegian–Mezenskaya rift system and Svyataya Anna and Victoria troughs were formed due to stretching of the lithosphere. The South Barents and Medvezinsko-Edzinskaya depressions formed at the generation stage of lithospheric plates due to the collision of several island arcs between outliers of the ancient oceanic crust. The choice of the geomorphic method for studying the seabed is because the science of geomorphology comprehensively studies bottom relief (morphology), its origin, and age. Adequate reconstruction of the causal relationships of exogenous and endogenous processes aids in substantiating the prediction of probable catastrophic seabed events. The results of mathematical calculations have confirmed the geodynamic conclusions within the Barents Sea region.
