Abstract
The main objective of an international expedition was to determine the rates of greenhouse gas emission (mainly methane emission) from the Sea of Okhotsk region. Previous calculations have shown that summer emission of methane from the water surface of the Sea of Okhotsk is about 1 million m3. It was necessary to check whether there is winter emission of methane and/or whether ice serves as an obstacle to it? This was a reason for the ice expedition.
