Abstract
New data on the formation of the bottom topography, bottom sediments, spatial structure and dynamics of waters of the Baltic Sea were obtained in cruise 42 of the R/V Akademik Nikolaj Strakhov (August 17–27, 2019). The distribution, morphology, and structure of large sand bodies on the Rybachy plateau were obtained. Additional data on the formation of the bottom topography and sedimentation under the influence of iceberg exaration and ice rafting at all stages of the Baltic Ice Lake were obtained. Numerous active gas craters (pockmarks) have been identified in the central part of the Gdansk Deep.
