Abstract
Most part of sedimentary material within the area of sea ice sedimentation is supplied to the seas by rivers in the form of suspensions, colloids and solutions. The data on liquid river runoff together with the data on composition of suspensions and dissolved forms of elements and suspended and dissolved specific discharge are given in Table 5.1. River lengths and distribution of permafrost in river basins are given in Fig. 5.1.
