export are the East Greenland Current and sea ice flux through Fram Strait. Inflow of saline water from the South is equivalent to a fresh water export. Fresh water from the Arctic strengthens the [...] airbornesea ice thickness measurements. Oceanographic moorings in Fram Strait provide estimates of liquid fresh water transport. Once validated, the models can be used for numerical experiments that reveal

After 1997 this Pacific Water [...] to monitor how long it takes before Pacific Water again exits Fram Strait and to compare the Pacific Water outflow through Fram Strait and the Canadian Archipelago.
