The Norwegian Sea Ecosystem
'The Norwegian Sea Ecosystem' elucidates the interaction between the different ecological compartments of the area, with special emphasis on the most important pelagic fish stocks. It deals with mechanisms for ecosystem variability and discusses the challenge of an ecosystem approach to managing the area.
The Nordic Seas
Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Geophysical Monograph Series, Volume 158. The world's largest positive temperature deviation from zonal mean temperatures lies within the realm of the Nordic Seas, comprising bodies of water variously referred to as the Norwegian Sea, the Iceland Sea, and the Greenland Sea. Its role as a mixing cauldron for waters entering from the North Atlantic and the Arctic Oceans, and its function as a major source of deep and abyss water, make our understanding of the Nordic Seas a crucial element in advancing the knowledge of climate dynamics in the Northern Hemisphere. In this context, its small extent (covering only 0.75% of the area of the world's oceans) and its unique location, which allows for accessibility and detailed exploration, are of special significance. The current book speaks to that significance specifically and also to assessing the region's present and future response to, and influence on, global climate change. It is the first such work since B. G. Hurdle's groundbreaking The Nordic Seas (published in 1986).
The Nordic Seas
Thorough, multidisciplinary account of the physical environment of this ocean area which includes the Greenland, Barents and Norwegian seas. Includes chapters on climatology; ice cover; the physical properties of the sea ice cover; brief overview of the physical oceanography; the arctic waters; the sound-speed structure; features of fjord and ocean interaction; tide, bathymetry; seafloor topography, sediments and paleoenvironments; geophysical and geochemical signatures and plate tectonics.
The Norwegian Coastal Current
The Norwegian coastal current originates primarily from the freshwater outflow from the Baltic and the freshwater runoff from Norway. It flows northwards along the coast of Norway as a low-salinity current. This coastal region is the spawning ground for a number of important oceanic fish stocks, and the physical environment has an impact on the recruitment, growth, and geographical distribution of these stocks. In the late 1920s and early 1930s, the Institute of Marine Research in Norway established a coastal oceanographic observation system. This continued to evolve, and its core elements are still in operation. Drawing on the results generated by this observation system, as well as by othe...
