Arctic Ocean Circulation

Arctic Ocean Circulation is a large-scale ocean circulation system characterized by the movement of water masses within the Arctic Ocean, distinguished from other polar ocean circulations by its unique interaction with sea ice, freshwater inputs from rivers and melting ice, and its role in moderating stratification through the inflow of Atlantic and Pacific waters.
