Relative transparency of sea water in the Green-fjord Bay (Spitsbergen)

The results of the analysis of spatial-time variability of relative transparency (depth of disappearance of a standard white Sechi disk) in the Green-fjord Bay (Spitsbergen archipelago) are presented. The data covers the period from 1986 to 1990 and were obtained during carrying- out of the oceanogr...

Description
Summary:The results of the analysis of spatial-time variability of relative transparency (depth of disappearance of a standard white Sechi disk) in the Green-fjord Bay (Spitsbergen archipelago) are presented. The data covers the period from 1986 to 1990 and were obtained during carrying- out of the oceanographic monitoring by experts of Barentsburg research station (Murmansk HydroMeteorogical Management) in frame of the program of standard coastal supervision. Some conclusions about the reasons of spatial and time variability of relative transparency depending from change of external conditions are presented.
