Abstract. The study demonstrates an analysis of the most representative database of 2D/3D seismic survey, engineering-geophysical survey, multibeam echosounding and bottom sampling in the Russian sector of the Barents Sea. As the result, a wide variety of glacial landforms were detected and mapped. Peculiarities of their distribution suggest that the ice-sheet glaciation was developed on the entire Barents Sea shelf. Analysis of glacial landforms allowed reconstructing the evolution of the glaciation in the Late Weichselian, making the pre-existing models significantly better detailed. Directions of ice streams as well as positions of marine-based ice dome were revealed. Keywords: Barents Sea, multibeam echosounding, 2D/3D seismic, glacial landforms, Weichselian glaciation, paleogeographic reconstructions
