Abstract
The method of computer map construction is described for organic carbo n (C-org) distribution in bottom sediments considering water depth, re moteness from coast, climatic zone, granulometric characteristics and facial types of bottom sediments. The method is based on calculations of expected C-org content in knots of regular grid using the regularit ies of C-org distributions revealed in well investigated regions of th e ocean.
