The article describes the regional characteristics of the distribution of morphometric parameters of ice ridges in five local areas in the Kara and Laptev Seas. The article gives the main parameters of the morphometry of ice ridges of different water areas. The features of the consolidated layer distribution are shown depending on the study region and the ridge-building conditions. Averaged profiles of the cross-section of the ice ridge are shown, the nature of the change in the thickness of the consolidated layer concerning the sail and keel of the ice ridge is shown. Averaged vertical distributions of porosity are obtained. The article reveals regional differences and general patterns of distributions of the main morphometric characteristics of ice ridges.
