  • The Arctic is rich in hydrocarbon resources, but its level of geological research is almost lowest in the world due to harsh natural climatic conditions and complicated tectonic evolution. Herein, the tectonic map of the Arctic (1:5 000 000) was compiled based on newly updated geophysical data, and combination of geology, geomorphology, and resource data. From compiling of the tectonic map, this paper recognized the tectonic evolution of Arctic to be influenced by the vertical effect of Iceland Mantle Plume, and the horizontal effect of clockwise rotation of Eurasia-Laurentia supercontinent. The tectonic evolution of Arctic Ocean is divided into three stages: (1) Early Mesozoic. Paleo-Pacific Ocean subducted northwards. Paleo-Asian Ocean closed, leading to the formation of supercontinent. (2) Jurassic-Cretaceous. South Anui Suture was formed, accompanied by the coupling of Canada Basin opening and South Anui Ocean closing. This process is accommodated by development of transform faults. (3) Cenozoic. North Mid-Atlantic Ridge extended northwards, leading to the forming of Gakkel Ridge. Arctic Ocean represents the hinge of global tectonic domains. Along with the extension of Gakkel Ridge, it will connect with North Pacific tectonic domain (Far East Orogen), changing the global tectonic pattern since Mesozoic.
