Morphotectonic evolution of the NE Baltic shield during the Phanerozoic time

Abstract

Geodynamic conditions of the Kola Peninsula morphostructural features development are preconditioned by the Baltic shield beginning as an individual structural unit in Riphean and since then by unidirectional intermittent development of zones of the basement submergence and spreading at the south of the Barents Sea plate and within the White Sea graben as well as by the Scandinavian Caledonides geological history. These geodynamic conditions controlled the process and direction of the relief formation at the Kola Peninsula during the Phanerozoic.
