Current Trends of Ice Coverage Changes in the Franz Josef Land Archipelago Area

摘要

The data on the ice distribution in the Franz Josef Land Archipelago area during the 2010/2011 and 2014/2015 ice seasons depending on climate oscillations are presented with consideration of the dynamics of the annual and seasonal variations in the main parameters of the ice regime (ice coverage area, position of the ice edge, duration of the ice period). Using the data on the ice coverage in the Barents Sea from the electronic database, a comparative analysis of changes in the average seasonal parameters of the ice regime is performed for the Franz Josef Land Archipelago and the entire Barents Sea.
