Second, local and small-scale openings in the ice cover (polynyas) provide the necessary brine release for dense bottom waters. The polynyas open frequently near Franz Josef Land and Novaya Zemlya due to oV-shore winds. Tidal currents, however, may also play a role in opening the closed ice sheet. T...
