Abstract
    Annual charts of bottom isohalines in the North Sea in February for the years 1970-1989 have been studied. Gradients of isohalines suggest long-term changes in the strength of the northern Atlantic water inflow. The surface of the area between the isohalines 34.9 and 35.0% and the 0 degree and 4 degree East longitude meridionals is proposed as a simple index to describe changes in the strength of this inflow.
