Abstract

The article discusses the issues of reconstructing the mesoscale fields of hydrophysical characteristics from measurement data, as well as the layout of moorings in the ocean experiments Polygon–70, SDE POLYMODE and Abyssal, in which the author of the article took part. A number of important results of the analysis of the vertical structure and variability of synoptic currents in the regions of these experiments are also presented.
