  <dc:description>This study is based on about 8400 km of MCS, magnetic and gravity data as well as 20 sonobuoys collected 
by the Russian Antarctic Expedition during 2003 and 2004 in the Davis Sea and adjacent areas between 80°E and 
102°E. Major tectonic provinces and features are identified and mapped in the study region including: 1) A marginal rift 
with a the extended continental crust ranging 130 to more than 200 km in width; 2) The marginal volcanic plateau of the 
Bruce Bank consisting of the Early Cretaceous igneous rocks; 3) The Early Cretaceous and Late Cretaceous−Paleogene 
oceanic basins; and 4) The Early Cretaceous igneous province of the Kerguelen Plateau. Four major horizons identified 
in the sedimentary cover of the Davis Sea region are attributed to main tectonic events and/or paleoenvironmental 
changes.</dc:description>
