Abstract

The article offers information regarding regions rich in nutrients with food grounds for zooplankton and structures in the ocean favorable for fishery. It mentions that favorable conditions formed in the subarctic frontal zones between cold and warm currents and in the periphery of mesoscale eddies with feeding resource of pelagic fish, are locations of fishing grounds. It discusses the Lagrangian coherent structures in the ocean and distinguishes it from favorable conditions for fishery. It determines the geostrophic velocity field was calculated from the data of satellite altimetry.
