Lycodapus leptus n.sp., L. poecilus n.sp., and L. psarostomatus n.sp. are described from the eastern Bering Sea. A new key to all known species of Lycodapus is presented. In addition, L. fierasfer Gilbert, L. parviceps Gilbert, and L. derjugini Andriashev are recognized from the Bering Sea and L. microdon Schmidt is recognized from the Sea of Okhotsk. The northern range limit of Lycodapus dermatinus Gilbert is established from a sea mount off southeastern Alaska. A specimen of Lycodapus that cannot be identified to species represents the most southern record for the genus in Asiatic waters.

Abstract This work is devoted to the study of the regimes of transformation of baroclinic tidal waves under the conditions of the Far Eastern seas within the framework of a fully nonlinear numerical model. Two sections were selected to study the features of wave dynamics – in the Sea of Okhotsk (Sakhalin Island shelf) and in the Bering Sea (near Cape Navarin). On the basis of the performed calculations, regional and seasonal features of the transformation of baroclinic waves and the structure of the flow induced by them were revealed. It is shown that the dynamics in the winter season is less intensive. The rotation effect on the formation of solibore in the studied conditions is analyzed. The obtained estimates of wave amplitudes and velocities are consistent with the published data of field observations in the Sea of Okhotsk. For the Bering Sea, the conditions are shown to be favorable for the generation of intensive internal waves, which indirectly confirms the hypothesis of influence of such waves on the formation of underwater sand dunes.

AbstractSea-ice fluctuations in the Sea of Okhotsk and the Bering Sea during the winters of 1992−99 were investigated by using the Special Sensor Microwave/ Imager dataset and a new ice-property retrieval algorithm This algorithm can distinguish between ice types such as fast ice floes, young ice and new ice, in an area covered by concentrations of >80% ice, and also has improved display resolution because it uses one of the 85 GHz channels. The ice thicknesses derived from the ice-thickness parameter of the new algorithm were compared with ship-based ice-thickness measurements, and were assumed to be 1−10, 11−34, 35−85 and 86−120 cm for new ice, young ice, floes (first-year ice) and fast ice, respectively. The results showed that ice volume can be small even if the ice area is large, due to thinness of the ice (e.g. in 1999 in the Sea of Okhotsk). A significant out-of-phase response, i.e. ice volume is larger in the Sea of Okhotsk when ice volume is smaller in the Bering Sea, was observed. The period of this see-saw showed two different time-scales, which were short (1 week) and long (2−4 weeks).

The deep-water mysidCeratomysis spinosaFaxon, 1893, previously known from Panama, Japan, the Sea of Okhotsk, the Bering Sea and Alaska, USA is reported for the first time off the western coast of Mexico, in the eastern Pacific. The specimens, a male of 27.5 mm in total length (TL) and five females of 28.5–34.5 mm TL, were collected between depths of 1296 and 1580 m. The telson is illustrated, showing numerous setae on the lateral margins, and longer, robust setae in the distal third and on the posterior margin.
