Lecture 1: Currents from Atlantic, influence on ice, trans-Arctic drift; heat transfer V. Ivanov (AARI)

The talk is devoted to the description of the influence of oceanic advection from the North Atlantic Ocean on the hydrographic conditions in the Eurasian Arctic. This topic became espessially actual in the recent two decades, when unprecedented decline of the arctic ice cover led to the intensification of the positive feedbacks in the "ocean - ice - atmosphere" system. One of such positive feedback loops on the seasonal scale - the so-called "atlantification" will be discussed in detail.

Lecture 2: Currents from Pacific, influence on ice T. Kodaira (UTokyo)

The Pacific Arctic region has been known to have experienced a significant reduction of summer sea ice extent. A characteristic heat source of this region has been identified as Pacific Water through the Bering Strait. This talk tries to overview the recent scientific findings related to the Pacific Water inflow. Special attention is paid to the effect of the Pacific Water on the sea ice formation based on the multiple data, including the ship observation of R/V Mirai.

Lecture 1: Ice regime of the Russian Arctic seas E. Pavlova (AARI)

Ice regime of the Kara, Laptev, East-Siberian and Chukchi seas will be overviewed. Information about ice formation, ice cover development and destruction, main features of water areas and terms of ice cover development stages will be presented. Special attention will be given to climatic changes during the last years.

Lecture 2: Ice navigation along the Northern Sea Route T. Alekseeva (AARI）

The talk is about pecularities of navigation along the Northern Sea Route (NSR). We will consider standart routes of navigation, types of vessels operating along the NSR, relevancy of icebreaker assistance, terms of navigation, basic principles of selecting the optimal route of navigation.
