Abstract
- A method for studying stamukhas using the modern field equipment is considered. The peculiarities of morphometric characteristics and parameters of the internal structure of stamukhas are analyzed. The interrelation between the consolidated layer thickness and the accumulated freezing degree days is derived for different seas. The comparative analysis of morphometric characteristics and the consolidated layer in the ice-covered seas of Russia is carried out. It is shown that the formation of stamukhas in different regions has specific features depending on the depth, bottom topography, drift characteristics, ice thickness, and dates of fast ice formation. The maximum thickness of the consolidated layer is registered in the Kara and Laptev seas.
