Summary: | epending on density, mixes yers (Anderson et al., 1994). er from the Barents Sea st. ting to the circulation of the Atlantic water is also import-elf. It is well documented that he Barents Sea depends on the the inflowing Atlantic water. elation between temperature ation parameters of commer-reviewed by Loeng (1989), it derstanding of the variability temperature conditions in the ortance for the Arctic Ocean the rationale for studying thealso show a clear inter-annual variability. Both the seasonal and inter-annual variability seem to be linked to the atmospheric pressure, and the results clearly indicate the highest flow of water when the atmospheric pressure is low. Based on available literature from all the diVerent in/outflow areas, we try to make a balanced budget for the Barents Sea through-flow. The results indicate an average ingoing and outgoing transport of approximately 4 Sv, of which the throughflow of Atlantic water contributes the half. |
