Abstract

Results characterizing the Pleistocene environments in the region of Northwestern Siberia are presented. The study of these environments is carried out from the perspective of the scientific concept of cryoheterotopy; this scientific approach is based on analysis of the typicality, atypicality, and utopicity of the positions of objects in space, which is united by a cryogenic system. A case study of the application of the developed approach to analyze the causes of contradictions regarding the structure of the regional Quaternary rock complex and crustal dynamics in the region in the Pleistocene is discussed, and a way to resolve these contradictions is presented. The characteristic features of development of the region studied are considered from the cryoheterotopic point of view.
