ZMIANY CIŚNIENIA ATMOSFERYCZNEGO NAD MORZEM BARENTSA I ICH WPŁYW NA CYRKULACJĘ ATMOSFERYCZNĄ W ATLANTYCKO-EUROPEJSKIM SEKTORZE CYRKULACYJNYM [PDF]
Przegląd Geofizyczny, 2023 The low-pressure system in the subarctic zone of the North Atlantic, forming the northern arm of the NAO dipole, varies significantly over time. It is composed of three alternating centers – the Labrador Sea low, the Icelandic Low and the Barents Sea low.

Still Arctic?—The changing Barents Sea
Elem Sci Anth, 2023 The Barents Sea is one of the Polar regions where current climate and ecosystem change is most pronounced. Here we review the current state of knowledge of the physical, chemical and biological systems in the Barents Sea. Physical conditions in this area are characterized by large seasonal contrasts between partial sea-ice cover in winter and spring ...

Phanerozoic Large Igneous Province, Petroleum System, and Source Rock Links
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 191-228., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Dense water formation and circulation in the Barents Sea [PDF]
, 2011 Dense water masses from Arctic shelf seas are an important part of the Arctic thermohaline system. We present previously unpublished observations from shallow banks in the Barents Sea, which reveal large interannual variability in dense water temperature
