Research has been conducted on the permafrost in the Sentsa River valley for the first time. The investigated units of the permafrost are cryogenic structures of unconsolidated deposits and active layer temperature, morphology and cross-section of sizable frost mounds and chemical composition of ice core. The complex pilot studies included borehole drilling, detailed documentation of frost borehole samples, penetrated sections of frost mounds, and river terrace cusps, tachometric survey of the Sentsa river valley,...

The results of stable isotopes 37Cl and 81Br research in ground brines of sedimentary and intrusive rocks are presented in this paper. More than 60 ground water samples from wells and boreholes throughout the Siberian Platform have been analyzed by the method of Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry (IRMS). There are some differences of geological and hydrogeological sections between northern and southern parts of the Platform. The ground brines in northern part of the Platform have exclusively Cl composition with Ca or...
