NAFO Sci. Coun. Studies, 24: 69–80 Long-time Series in Icelandic Waters in Relation to Physical Variability in the Northern North Atlantic

This review is mainly based on two papers the author has published in the ICES Journal of Marine Science Symposia. One dealing with the hydro-biological variability in the ICES Area (Malmberg and Kristmannsson, 1992) and the other on capelin and cod, and climatic change (Malmberg and Blindheim, 1994...

Description
Summary:This review is mainly based on two papers the author has published in the ICES Journal of Marine Science Symposia. One dealing with the hydro-biological variability in the ICES Area (Malmberg and Kristmannsson, 1992) and the other on capelin and cod, and climatic change (Malmberg and Blindheim, 1994). These papers deal with hydrographic conditions in Icelandic waters and adjacent seas in relation to large scale pan Atlantic conditions. Additional updated information from Icelandic waters are included in this review and compared with hydrographic variations elsewhere along the Subpolar Gyre in the North Atlantic. Some ecological impacts of the observed hydrographic conditions in the northern North Atlantic are also discussed.
