Temperature structure and SSM/I images of the cosmonaut polynya region
Water temperature structure in the Cosmonaut Sea between 60-68°S, 35-65°E in 1987-1992 shows that cold water with temperature below -1.5℃ was present in the coastal region. The Circumpolar Deep Water with temperature higher than 1.0℃ was found below about 150m in depth from northeast to northwest of...
