Abstract

The paper is dedicated to peculiarities of structure-forming in rift zones of ultra-slow spreading Reykjanes, Kolbeynsey, Mohns, Knipovich and Gakkel ridges. Each of them develops in specific geodynamical environment. Analyses of information covering structure-forming in rift zones of theses ridges together with experimental studies let to distinguish key geodynamical factors defining morphology and formation of structures of their rift zones.
