Abstract. The article focuses on the identification of geomorphological features of the northern coast of Greenland in the Lincoln Sea area. A geomorphological analysis of the territory was carried out in this research; a geomorphological map of the studied area was composed. Various relief forms and the role of glaciers on the relief formation of coastal territories are considered.

Keywords: northern coast of Greenland, geomorphological map, glacial activity, Lincoln Sea.
