In the opinion of F. Nansen (1922) the floor of the Barents Sea is an ela- borate system of river valleys sunk under the sea surface. In fact if the sea- level were lowered 500 m the whole of the Barents Sea would become dry land. Bottom topography The bottom topography of the Barents Sea has the following features (Fig. 22). In three places troughs below 400 m enter the sea, the first lying between the.
