There were three directions to this study-theoretical modeling, collection and systemization of experimental data, and analysis of long-term variations in the Arctic Basin. The work with the experimental data included: (1) The creation of a new version of the Arctic basin Data Base. (2) The collection and preliminary analysis of the archive data on the water exchange through the Fram Strait. (3) A comparison of the heat content variability in the Atlantic layer in different oceanographic regions. (4) A comparison of salinity variations in the upper ocean layers in these regions.
