About Greenland Sea, facts and maps
Tumblr media
How cold is the Greenland Sea? The average surface water temperature is about −1 °C (30 °F) or lower in the north and 1–2 °C (34–36 °F) in the south; the corresponding summer temperatures are about 0 and 6 °C (32 and 43 °F) respectively. The bottom water temperatures are below −1 °C (30 °F). What oceans are in Greenland? Located in the North Atlantic Ocean off the northeastern coast of Canada, Greenland is the world's largest island. It is bounded on the north by the Arctic Ocean; on the west by Smith Sound, Baffin Bay and the Davis Strait; and on the east by the Arctic and North Atlantic oceans. How cold is the Greenland Sea? In a word: very. Water temperatures have been rising steadily since 1985, but they're always below freezing. The highest temperatures ever recorded there have all been in the last few years, but the warmest was just over -0.8°C.

Does the sea around Iceland freeze? Contrarily, ice on the Icelandic fishing grounds is quite common, especially in the northwest. Therefore, sea ice is monitored by regular flights for this purpose. Based on observations from the Icelandic Coast Guard and other vessels that sight sea ice, warnings are issued by IMO when considered necessary. What is the coldest sea on earth? A “supercoolometer”, a device that sounds like it should be used to measure hipsters, has found the coldest seawater on Earth, under Antarctic sea ice. What is the coldest ocean on Earth? Southern Ocean It is also known as the Antarctic Ocean as it surrounds Antarctica. It is the coldest and wildest ocean in the world. Can you swim in the ocean in Greenland? Greenland's southern shore, commonly called the "banana coast" due to its accessibility and green landscape in the summer, and the southern towns of Narsaq and Qaqortoq, which lie on the same latitude as the Shetland Islands, are home to many sandy beaches, ideal for bathing. Is Greenland wet or dry? dry The air is generally very dry in Greenland in relation to many other countries, and because of this low humidity the low temperatures do not feel as cold as you might expect. On the other hand, the dry air means that you must drink more water than normal. Does Greenland have fish? Greenland's waters are known to contain more than 250 species of fish, and the figure is probably somewhat larger, as life in the deeper waters is almost unknown. The global warming of the world seas also causes more species to migrate further north towards Greenland waters, such as mackerel, monkfish and porbeagle. How deep is the Greenland Sea? It lies south of the Arctic Basin proper and borders Greenland (west), Svalbard (east), the main Arctic Ocean (north), and the Norwegian Sea and Iceland (south). Average depth is 4,750 feet (1,450 m), with the deepest recorded point at 16,000 feet (4,800 m). Will sea ice disappear? SHARM EL-SHEIKH, Egypt, Nov 7 (Reuters) - Climate change is rapidly melting away the world's frozen regions, with summertime Arctic sea ice sure to vanish by 2050, according to a report published on Monday. Why is Greenland losing more ice than Antarctica? But Greenland's ice loss is different from Antarctica's in crucial ways. One is that almost all of Greenland's ice is on land, with few sections floating on water. The air over Greenland is also warmer, so melting at the surface of the ice sheet is a much more significant driver of ice loss than at the South Pole. What happens if it rains in Greenland? Greenland's ice sheet is the second largest on the planet (after Antarctica) and any rain falling on its surface accelerates melting. Is oil drilled in Greenland? Arctic nation has no active oil fields but U.S. estimates there could be 17.5 billion barrels undiscovered. Is the water clean in Greenland? In Greenland, there is access to clean drinking water in all towns and villages. Efforts are constantly being made to improve the water supply to ensure that all citizens have access to high-quality drinking water. Read the full article

We landed in Iceland and cruised out to the Greenland Sea for a whale watching experience. No amount of time spent with you is ever enough. 📍Greenland Sea, Reykjavík, Iceland

Greenland is the world's largest island, located between the Arctic and Atlantic oceans, east of the Canadian Arctic Archipelago. It is an autonomous territory within the Kingdom of Denmark.  📷@joe_shutter 📍Greenland #greenland #greenlandshark #greenlandkayak #travel #ice #greenlandtravel #glacier #greenlandadventures #greenlandflowers #greenlander #greenlanddogs #greenlanddock #exploregreenland #greenlandscape #greenlanddog #greenlandpaddle #airgreenland #greenlandicgirl #greenland🇬🇱 #greenlandwax #greenlandtoday #greenlandprod #greenlandic #greenlandsea #greenlandpioneer #greenlandnh #greenland_udon #greenlandscapes #greenlandkyrgyzstan (at Greenland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCgmLWQDCuz/?igshid=1hp53cq2daerh

Looking down on the Greenland Sea just below the artic circle. Although almost impossible to see from this vantage point – we still held out for a glimpse of a Minke Whale, Humpback or Blue. These parts host up to 20 species of Ceteca, taking it easy in their cool feeding grounds, before the long migrations begin. #greenlandsea #north #cloudscape #oceanview

The sea in other places... the view from the cliffs in Skagaströnd, North Iceland, May 2013. (Can you see the curvature of the earth?) (at Skagaströnd)

Zaległy post! Rano w sobotę 17.08.2019 ukończyliśmy ostatnie zlecenie transportu trzech geologów czeskich z Longyearbyen do Polskiej Stacji Polarnej imienia Stanisława Siedleckiego w Hornsundzie. Pożegnaliśmy się z tegoroczną arktyką. Rozpoczęliśmy rejs powrotny do Polski, do Gdańska przez Morze Grenladzkie, Morze Norweskie, Morze Północne http://eur-share.inreach.garmin.com/magnuszaremba https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/home/shipid:316513/zoom:14 https://www.vesselfinder.com/?mmsi=261025570 https://www.sailwx.info/shiptrack/shipposition.phtml?call=SPG3930 Eugeniusz Moczydlowski #Arktyka #Arktyka2019 #MagnusZaremba #gorączkapolarna #Svalbard #Spitsbergen #SpitsbergenZachodni #ZiemiaWedelJarslberga #WedelJarlsbergLand #Hornsund #Isbjørnhamna #ZatokaBiałegoNiedźwiedzia #Krosvika #Hansvika #PolskaStacjaPolarna #PolskaStacjaPolarnaHornsund #IGFPAN #InstytutGeofizykiPolskiejAkademiiNauk #IGF #InstytutGeofizyki #PAN #PolskaAkademiaNauk #geografia #geologia #MorzeGrenlandzkie #MorzeNorweskie #MorzePółnocne #MorzePolnocne #Arctic #Arctic2019 #arcticsyndrome #Isfjord #Adventfjord #PortofLongyearbyen #PolishPolarStationHornsund #PolishPolarStation #PolishAcademyofSciences #IGPAS #InstituteofGeophysicsPolishAcademyofSciences #CatS61 #geography #geology #geografi #geologi #GreenlandSea #NorwegianSea #NorthSea #Grønlandshavet #Norskehavet #Nordsjøen (w: Polska Stacja Polarna Hornsund) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1ls9O9IJtv/?igshid=e8z3crxarknv
