The Barents Sea is a shallow continental shelf sea. Generally, the physical conditions are determined by three main water masses: Coastal Water, (North) Atlantic Water, and Arctic Water. These three…

Volume and Heat Transports to the Arctic Ocean Via the Norwegian and Barents Seas
The main aim of this paper has been to present a holistic view of the Atlantic water flow along the Norwegian Coast and into the Barents Sea. It has focused on the period starting in the mid-1990s,…

Water fluxes through the Barents Sea
The physical oceanographic conditions in the Barents Sea depend mainly on the variability in the Atlantic inflow from the Norwegian Sea and the inflow of Arctic water from the Kara Sea and the Arctic…

Covariability in early growth and year-class strength of Barents Sea cod, haddock, and herring: the environmental link
TLDR
It is hypothesized that for stocks at the high latitude end of the overall range of the species the environmental signal tends to over-ride density-dependent effects on growth and year-class strength and that high temperature will cause a high production of prey items leading to higher growth rates and higher survival through the vulnerable larval and juvenile stages.

Reversal of the 1960s to 1990s freshening trend in the northeast North Atlantic and Nordic Seas
Hydrographic time series in the northeast North Atlantic and Nordic Seas show that the freshening trend of the 1960s–1990s has completely reversed in the upper ocean. Since the 1990s temperature and…

Velocity field of the western entrance to the Barents Sea
[1] By the use of 4-year long records from moored current meters between 71°30′N and 73°30′N of the western entrance to the Barents Sea, the velocity field of the Atlantic inflow is examined. The…
