This title presents the systematization and description of
accumulated knowledge on oceanic fronts of the Norwegian,
Greenland, Barents and Bering Seas. The main fronts of the
Norwegian, Greenland and Barents Seas are part of the climatic
North Polar Frontal Zone (NPFZ). The work is based on numerous
observational data, collected by the authors during special sea
experiments directed at the investigation of physical processes and
phenomena inside certain parts of the NPFZ and in the northern part
of the Bering Sea, on archive data of the USSR Hydrometeocenter and
other research institutions, as well as on a wide scientific
literature published in Russian and Western editions.
The book contains general information on the oceanic fronts of the
Subarctic Seas, brief history of their investigation, state of the
knowledge, as well as detailed description of the thermohaline
structure of all frontal zones in the Norwegian, Greenland, Barents
and Bering Seas and of neighboring fronts of Arctic and coastal
origin. Special attention is given to the study of the multifrontal
character of the NPFZ and of peculiarities of its internal
structure at different locations, to the description of diverse
oceanic features observed in the NPFZ, as well as to some
characteristics of the horizontal and vertical fine structure of
hydrophysical fields in the NPFZ. The main features of the northern
Bering Sea's summer ecohydrodynamics are investigated with the help
of three-dimensional direct and inverse models.
