<u>Answer:
</u>
The process of thick sediment layers to "accumulate" along the "boundaries of continental and oceanic plates" is called Subduction.
<u>Explanation:
</u>
- During a marine transgression, sea level raises high compared to land level resulting in floods. These are triggered during climate changes, ice-age, isostatic movements.
- Subduction occurs at the tectonic plates where one plate is moves under another forcing to sink into Earth’s mantle due to the gravitational force.
- The plates are continental and oceanic in the zone of lithosphere. The rate of subduction is usually seven to 8 centimetres per year.
- Marine regressions are opposite to transgressions where sea levels fall compared to land levels.
- Glaciation is the interval of time within an ice-age. The current glacier period is of Holocene.
With a country as big as Russia, it is hard to give you an accurate estimation. Siberia is known for some of the coldest winters in the world, reaching a very dangerous -35 degrees Celsius. The north pole of cold has a record breaking -69 degree celsius winters. over 65% of Russia is covered by permafrost. There is a humid continental climate as well.
