| Popis: | The thermohaline structure of water in the Antarctic coastal areas adjoining Molodezhnaya, Novolazarevskaya, and Bellingshausen stations is analyzed using many-hour soundings carried out in March–April 2019 during the 64th Russian Antarctic Expedition on the Akademik Fedorov research vessel. Water masses typical of the Antarctic zone (Antarctic surface, Antarctic shelf, Antarctic winter, upper circumpolar deep water, Bransfield Strait surface water) are identified, and the features of their temporal variability are described. It is shown that intradaily and interdaily variations in water temperature and salinity were observed during the measurement period. The changes in the water structure in the area of Molodezhnaya, Novolazarevskaya, and Bellingshausen stations occurred under changes in synoptic atmospheric conditions, and their frequency was close to that of tidal processes. |
