Russian scientists have identified a previously unknown warm surface current in the Arctic, stretching over 1000 km in the Barents and Kara Seas. Named the 'Keldysh Current' after the research vessel 'Academician Mstislav Keldysh', this current carries large volumes of warm Atlantic water eastwards, challenging earlier beliefs about Arctic ocean currents. The discovery, based on data from 25 marine expeditions between 1995 and 2024, significantly impacts understanding of sea ice dynamics in the Russian Arctic.
