Abstract:More than 90% of oceanic heat enters the Arctic Ocean with the Norwegian Current. In this paper we examine the mechanisms of variability of the oceanic heat flux in the Norwegian Current (across the Svinoy section in the southern Norwegian Sea) in 1993–2019. GLORYS oceanic reanalysis with a spatial resolution of 1/12° is used. It is found that the variability of oceanic heat flux is associated with that of water transport, which, in turn, is associated with variability of the sea level gradient across the Norw… Show more
