The major aim of this study is to analyze datasets of δ18O and salinity from the Arctic shelf seas in order to quantify sea-ice melt water fraction (fi) and river runoff fraction (fr) added to the water column from the Siberian shelf seas. Interpretation and comparison of data obtained in different...
