Paleoelevations in the Pacific Ocean 35 million years ago
Data from deep sea drilling, linear magnetic anomalies and bathymetric measurements together with age and morphometric characteristics of seamounts have been used to construct a paleobathymetric map of the oceans 35 million years ago. A brief analysis of these results is presented

Composition and age of rocks from the King's Trough and Palmer Ridge
This paper presents results of studies of rocks sampled during Cruise 19 of R/V Akademik Mstislav Keldysh with the Mir submersibles in the Atlantic Ocean (slopes of the King's Trough and Palmer Ridge). Based on these materials and published data two stages of magmatism and evolution in the region are distinguished: 1) formation of a mid-ocean ridge in the rift zone (68-32 Ma); 2) development of intraplate volcanism during movement of the plate over a "hot spot" (32-0 Ma)
(Table 4) Chemical composition of a hydrothermal body from the Red Sea rift zone
The main features of geological structures of ocean rift zones based on results of studies of the P.P. Shirshov Institute of Oceanology with use of manned submersibles "Pisces" are under consideration in the book. Multiyear experience of geological exploration in rift zones with the use of these submersibles is summarized. Methodology of underwater operations is described. The main structural features of the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden rifts as well as the rift zone of the Reykjanes Ridge are considered
