Below are research papers on oceanic currents in and toward the Arctic, causing higher sea surface temperatures due to heat flux. Changes in salinity due to melting sea ice, ice shelves and glaciers, and river discharge can affect these currents. Click on the discussion page of a paper to read excerpts, download a copy and discuss the paper.
If there are papers you'd like to see added here, you can comment at the end of this section. Please link to downloadable copies (no paywalls).
Papers are in order of year of publication.
The 2007 Bering Strait oceanic heat flux 2009, Woodgate et al., Geophysical Research Letters |
Record Russian river discharge in 2007 and the limits of analysis 2009, Shiklomanov and Lammers, Environmental Research Letters |
Perhaps Spielhagen et al 2011

I would like to nominate Rudels(2012):

it seems to be developed from a price acceptance lecture - I think it would make excellent background reading for many people here?

This is a bunch of links i've found useful in getting to grips with kinetic energy in the arctic
