Аннотация:Forms of ice gouging were documented for the first
time at 3 to 12 m depth in the North Caspian Sea.
Gouges and systems of scouring gouges formed by
drifting hummocky bodies frozen in ice floes have
been discovered as a result of simultaneous hydroloca
tion survey and echosounding. The length of the larg
est and most welldefined gouges exceeds a few kilo
meters; the width of individual gouges is up to 5 m, and
the width of gouge systems is up to 200 m. Apart from
linear forms, local pits remaining from stamukhas sit
ting at the bottom have been discovered.
