| Summary: | The geostrategic position of Russia in the Asia-Pacific region is determined by the level of economic, social and political development on the territory of Far East. The prospects for its improvement in view of modern realities and trends cannot be imagined without the development of transport and economic connections between the subjects, including Sakhalin Island and the mainland. The transcontinental transport market within the international transport corridors is huge positive potential for development of the regions of the Far East, Siberia and the whole Russia. The decision to develop the transport infrastructure of the outskirts at the level of the Government of the Russian Federation will demonstrate the State attitude to its Far Eastern territory and outline its positions in the Asia-Pacific region. The relevance of the research is caused by the need to develop design solutions for selection of possible options for organization of sustainable year-round transport links between the mainland and Sakhalin for development of the resource potential of adjacent territories. The final choice of the location and type of construction, which will ensure uninterrupted transportation by rail and road through the Tatar Strait, can be made only after thorough analysis of the advantages of any of them, depending on natural conditions. The aim of the research is to analyze the results of geological and geomorphological studies in the Nevelskogo Strait (narrowest part of the Tatar Strait) to select the location of the transport crossing. Materials and methods of the research. The information basis for the study was cartographic materials, earth remote sensing data, seismic profiles, other data obtained as a result of engineering and scientific research, in which the authors participated, as well as information from literary sources. Mapping in the geographic information environment allowed updating geological maps, applying new data on faults, clarifying the boundaries of stratigraphic strata. In geomorphological ... |
