A current through the Bering Strait that carries low-salinity water of Pacific origin into the Arctic Ocean. It is concentrated on the Siberian side with speeds near 0.3 m s-1 and varies little with season. During winter it is augmented by additional flow from the Sphanberg Strait.

Jul 25, 2022 · In situ nutrient concentration data and salinity-nutrient parameterizations established at Anadyr Strait from June 2017 to June 2018 are used to estimate monthly Pacific-to-Arctic fluxes of nitrate, phosphate, and silicate through Bering Strait over 1997–2019.

This northward flow intensifies along the east coast of Siberia forming the only strong low-frequency currents on the shelf (the Anadyr Current). The flow turns eastward across the shelf along the southern coast of Siberia and eventually exits the Bering Sea through Bering Strait.

Anadyr Current, River Discharges, Winter Freezing • Individual cross-sections provide insight to the roles of advection and mixing • Recent thermal conditions appear to be outside the envelope of nearly the entire last century.

Feb 13, 2009 · The BSC splits into two coastal currents: the Anadyr Current (AC), which flows along the west coast into the Chukchi Sea through the western side of Bering Strait, and the southwestern coastal current, which forms the East Kamchatka Current (EKC).

Sep 17, 2020 · Anadyr Strait, located at the northernmost reaches of the Bering Sea, influences pan-Arctic climate through processes occurring in the strait as the Siberian Coastal Current carries water from the subpolar North Pacific Ocean into the western Arctic Ocean.

As the Anadyr Current flows between St. Lawrence Island and Siberia, the bathymetry deepens (50–60 m) and bottom-generated turbulence results in strong vertical mixing. This tends to mix phytoplankton below the critical depth and interrupts the …

Sep 1, 2021 · A water mass with the highest a CDOM (350) and lowest S 275–295 was found along the coast of the Gulf of Anadyr and Alaska mainland, which suggests that freshwater originates from the Anadyr and Yukon rivers and is transported by the Anadyr Current and Alaskan Coastal Current, respectively.

Oct 14, 2020 · Researchers in Japan have studied a cold ocean current that likely contributes to ice formation in the Arctic. This is the first time that researchers have made measurements directly in an area known as the Anadyr Strait, rather than relying on satellite data.

Explore Anadyr River, its current characteristics, ADCP's operation, and equipment selection.
