| Abstract: | The results of an analysis of the distribution of the thermohaline characteristics in the frontal zone of the North Atlantic current area near 46°00' N are reported, the spatial resolution being 2–2.5 miles. Minor structural features of the frontal zone have been observed, characterized by the occurrence of intrusions of diverse origin. The intrusive fine structure was found to be inherent only to the near-frontal area and is incapable of penetrating through the boundary of the current's main jet.Translated by Vladimir A.
