New data on the Middle Quaternary peat bogs in the Pechora River basin
https://doi.org/10.52349/0869-7892_2024_97_41-60
Abstract
The supposed marine nature of authigenic gypsum mineralization, first discovered on exposed dry surfaces of the Middle Quaternary peat bogs, and on the woody debris contained in them, is discussed. Peat bogs protrude from the lower part of the erosional cliffs on the Pechora River near the village Rodionovo, on the Vertny River (right tributary of the Pechora River), and in the Lodmashchelya area on the Seyda River (tributary of the Usa River). The similarity of «paleogypsum» with gypsum grown on modern wood that has been in the sea for a long time allows us to assert that sea water is conserved in peat bogs. Lists of flora and beetles first discovered in the Lodmashchelya peat bog are provided.
Keywords
buried peat bog,
authigenic gypsum,
