Abstract

The formation of fast ice in the costal zone of freezing seas (immobile ice) is considered on the basis of a specially developed thermodynamic model that takes into account the energy exchange in the atmospheric boundary layer and the salinification of the water layer under the ice. The conditions at which the wind forced onshore motion of the ice under the influence of the wind stress at the ice’s surface is possible are studied using the example of the Baidaratskaya Guba in the Kara Sea.
