| 描述 |
The Norwegian Sea Large Marine Ecosystem is situated off the west coast of Norway. The Iceland-Faroe Ridge separates the relatively warm waters of the Northeast North Atlantic from the cold Arctic deep water of the Norwegian Sea LME. An Eastern boundary current flows along the edge of the Norwegian Shelf into the Arctic region. The cold and low salinity East Icelandic Current flows southeast towards the Norwegian Basin (http://na.nefsc.noaa.gov/lme/text/lme21.htm). Range of marine fishes of Norway needs to be checked for assignment. |
