摘要: The Arctic Ocean and Subarctic seas are important components of the global climate system most sensitive regions to change. Physical processes occurring in these influence regional circulation, heat mass transfer through water exchange with Atlantic Pacific Oceans. One overall objectives oceanographic research is gain a better understanding mesoscale physical biological seas. This review based on book “Physical Oceanography Frontal Zones Seas” by A.G. Kostianoy, J.C.J. Nihoul V.B. Rodionov published Elsevier October 2004. presents systematization description accumulated knowledge oceanic fronts Norwegian, Greenland, Barents, Bering work was numerous observ ational data, collected authors during special sea experiments directed investigation phenomena areas North Polar Zone (NPFZ) northern part Sea, archive data USSR Hydrometeocenter other institutions, as well wide Russian Western literature. contains general information seas, brief history their investigation, state current knowledge, detailed thermohaline structure all frontal zones neighboring coastal origins.
