Variability of sea ice in the Okhotsk Sea

Proceedings of IGARSS '93 - IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2002
Sea ice in the Sea of Okhotsk is constrained by land and by season. No sea ice survives summer. The total areal extent of sea ice in winter varies interannually from approximately 1.5/spl times/10/sup 6/ km/sup 2/ to 0.8/spl times/10/sup 6/ km/sup 2/. Some results are discussed on the interannual variability of sea ice extent in the Okhotsk Sea and the

Tides in the Sea of Okhotsk

Journal of Physical Oceanography, 1998
Eight major tidal constituents in the Sea of Okhotsk have been investigated using a numerical solution of tidal equations on a 59 space grid. The tides are dominated by the diurnal constituents. Diurnal tidal currents are enhanced in Shelikhov Bay and Penzhinskaya Guba, at Kashevarov Bank, in proximity to the Kuril Islands and at a few smaller ...

The tectonics of the Okhotsk Sea

Marine Geology, 1982
Abstract The northern and central parts of the Okhotsk Sea form an epiMesozoic platform. The hetero-aged acoustic basement is represented by deformed geosynclinal rocks from Cretaceous to Precambrian in age. The slightly deformed sedimentary cover levelled the uneven surface of the acoustic basement, and this Upper Paleogene—Neogene cover filled up ...

Deep-sea amphipod fauna of the Sea of Okhotsk

Progress in Oceanography, 2019
Abstract During joint Russian-German SokhoBio expedition held in 2015, the deepest area of the Sea of Okhotsk (Kuril Basin), the Bussol Strait and the western abyssal slope of the Kuril-Kamchatka Trench were investigated using camera epibenthic sledge. In total, 19 stations ranged between 1696 and 4798 m depth were sampled.

Ferromanganese crusts from the Sea of Okhotsk

Oceanology, 2012
New data on the microstructures and the mineral and chemical compositions of ferromanganese crusts obtained from the western slope of the Kuril Island Arc in the Sea of Okhotsk during cruises of the R/V Vulkanolog are discussed. The study of the crusts using analytical electron microscopy methods revealed that their manganese phase is represented by ...

Hydrogeology of the northern Sea of Okhotsk coast

Russian Journal of Pacific Geology, 2008
The complex characteristics of the main formation factors, the occurrence conditions, and the composition of the groundwaters are considered with a description of the cryogenic and hydrogeological features of the Okhotsk Sea coast from the Urak River mouth in the west to Taigonos Peninsula in the east.

On the seasonal sea ice cover of the Sea of Okhotsk

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 1983
Free of ice 4 months of the year, the Sea of Okhotsk begins to freeze over in a few coastal locations in November, attains its maximum ice coverage usually in mid March, and by June retains ice in only a few coastal regions. This sequence is well recorded by satellite imagery from the Electrically Scanning Microwave Radiometer (ESMR) on board Nimbus 5.

Granitoid magmatism of the Japan and Okhotsk seas

Petrology, 2016
This paper presents a study of Middle Paleozoic, Late Paleozoic, Early Cretaceous, and Early—Late Cretaceous granitoid complexes from two Pacific marginal seas. The granitoid complexes are subdivided into two large groups: (1) mantle-crust derivatives, including andesite differentiates, and (2) crustal palingenetic granites. In terms of formation depth,

Characteristics of shallow gas hydrate in Okhotsk Sea

Science in China Series D: Earth Sciences, 2008
Multidisciplinary field investigations were carried out in Okhotsk Sea by R/V Akademik M.A. Lavrentyev (LV) of the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS) in May 2006, supported by funding agencies from Korea, Russia, Japan and China. Geophysical data including echo-sounder, bottom profile, side-scan-sonar, and gravity core sample were obtained aimed to ...
