The Bering Sea and paleoceanography

Deep-Sea Research Part II: Topical Studies in Oceanography, 2005
Abstract This paper serves as an introduction to the Bering Sea, preceding the 14 contributed papers contained in this volume. Several parts of the paper are allocated for current reviews of the Bering Sea. Included in the review topics are geomorphology, surface water circulation, and the importance of the formation of intermediate waters ...

Comparative assessment of the West Bering Sea and East Bering Sea Large Marine Ecosystems

Environmental Development, 2016
Abstract A comparison between the West and East Bering Sea Large Marine Ecosystems (LMEs) is a study in contrast. These LMEs feature different geographical, bathymetric, and geomorphological settings that determine profound differences between their climate, circulation, frontal pattern, primary production, and fisheries yields.

Dynamics of the Bering Sea

1999
The Bering Sea is a region of extreme seasonal as well as substantial interannual variability in its air-ice-ocean environment. This chapter updates work on the weather/climate and ice environment of the Bering Sea and its surrounding environs. Topics with extra emphasis include polynyas, analyses of ~50-year long time series of the air-ice-ocean ...

Dispersion of sea ice in the Bering Sea

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 1985
The dispersion of sea ice in the Bering Sea is analyzed in terms of the changes in separation between pairs of ice floes. The statistics of these changes depend on the separation itself and on the time interval over which the changes are measured. Rather than being constant, as in the case of molecular or Fickian diffusion, the diffusivity increases ...

Heat flow in the Bering Sea

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 1980
The basic pattern of heat flow in the Bering Sea is revealed by 43 measurements obtained in the Aleutian, Kamchatka, and Bowers basins. Averages of the observed values are 55 mW m−2 in the Aleutian Basin, 120 mW m−2 in the Kamchatka Basin, and 80 mW m−2 for two measurements in the Bowers Basin near the Bowers Ridge.

The Old Bering Sea Florescence about Bering Strait

2016
Dependent on whaling, a series of complex, sedentary societies termed Old Bering Sea arose around Bering Strait at proximity to resource hot spots, ca. 250 B.C. to A.D. 400, thrived between A.D. 600 and 800 and with influences as late as A.D. 1300.

Governing the Bering Sea Region

2007
The Bering Sea Region (Map 12.1) – a large marine ecosystem or LME encompassing an area of almost 2.3 million square kilometres in the northernmost reaches of the Pacific Ocean (Sherman, 1992; Broadus and Vartanov, 1994, Ch. 3; National Research Council, 1996; WWF/The Nature Conservancy, 1999; National Research Council, 2003) – is famous both for its ...
