Probability assessment of possible ice encounters during the petroleum hydrocarbons transportation in the Sea of Okhotsk
Abstract The increase in freight traffic along the Northern Sea Route necessitates the study of the ice regime of the freezing seas of Russia, including the Far Eastern ones (Bering Sea, the Sea of Okhotsk and the Sea of Japan). This paper, on the basis of the analysis of the Sea of Okhotsk’s ice co...
