Abstract :
Biostratigraphical and sedimentological studies of deposits of terraces with heights of 2–3, 3–4, 4–6, 8–10, 12–15, 20–30, 35–40, 60–80 and 100–120 m on Western Sakhalin Island have shown that they were all marine in origin. The upper complex of terraces (QI–QII) formed during a period of slow tectonic uplift (< 0.1 m ka− in this area to 120 m above modern sea level. The lower complex of terraces (QIII–QIV) may have formed in response to sea level oscillations without any influence of tectonic uplift.
