EVAPORATION AND SENSIBLE HEAT FLUX OVER THE ARCTIC OCEAN.
These fluxes were calculated for each month over the Polar Ocean and the Norwegian-Barents Sea. Sverdrup's evaporation formula was used, and it was first examined how the K-coefficient in that formula depends on the wind speed frequency distribution. Seasonal maps were constructed of mean wind...

These fluxes were calculated for each month over the Polar Ocean and the Norwegian-Barents Sea.

Evaporation and sensible heat flux were calculated separately for the following areas: Central Polar Ocean, Kara-Laptev Sea, East Siberian Sea, Beaufort Sea, and belts of 5 degrees latitude of the Norwegian - Barents Sea.
