Description
Summary:No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author. Water circulation plays an important role in all processes taking place in the water environment and influences both directly and indirectly the oceanographic, meteorological and biological conditions of seas and oceans. Physical processes, including water dynamics, determine not only the areas of young herring dwelling, but also the differences in its growth rate and time of maturity coming. This leads to the interannual variations of the commercial stock recruitment (Marti, 1956; Seliverstov and Penin, 1969). Therefore, the studying of the water dynamics influence on the transport of the Norwegian Spring-spawning herring in the early ontogenesis is of current importance. The aim of the paper is to study the influence of the Barents Sea circulation on 0-group herring distribution using a numerical model.
