The main fronts of the Norwegian, Greenland and Barents Seas are part of the climatic North Polar Frontal Zone (NPFZ). The work is based on numerous observational data, collected by the authors during special sea experiments directed at the investigation of physical processes and phenomena inside certain parts of the NPFZ and in the northern part of the Bering Sea, on archive data of the USSR Hydrometeocenter and other research institutions, a 410 0$aElsevier oceanography series ;$v71. 606 $aOcean circulation$zArctic Ocean 606 $aOceanography$zArctic Ocean 606 $aOceanography$zArctic regions 615 0$aOcean circulation 615 0$aOceanography 615 0$aOceanography 676 $a551.4’6 22 676 $a551.46 676 $a551.46 700 $aKostianoi$b A.
