Abstract

2D and 3D modeling of sedimentation of Cenozoic clinoform complexes was done. There are two clinoform complexes in the North Chukchi basin, the lower — Paleocene-Eocene and the upper — Oligocene. The source of sedimentary material for clinoforms are the orogens of Alaska and Chukotka. Two-dimensional modeling of the upper clinoform complex was performed, and sea level fluctuations necessary for the formation of clinoforms were determined. Based on the results of three-dimensional sedimentation modeling, possible sources of demolition and quantitative characteristics of the input of sedimentary material were determined. The rivers that provided the sediment supply in the Oligocene are comparable to the modern Kolyma and Northern Dvina.
