本文介绍了巴伦支海的波浪条件和经常伴随着充分发展的极地低压的天气条件。对巴伦支海极端波浪的研究表明，随着向北移动，巴伦支海的极端波浪逐渐减少。与北海和挪威海波浪条件相比，夏季的巴伦支海波浪条件更适合海上作业。然而，实际天气预报的质量和长周期涌浪对巴伦支海总海面的贡献可能会抵消在该地区观察到的较长天气窗口。此外，经常伴随着充分发展的极地低压的天气条件限制了巴伦支海的海上作业。结果表明，极地低压的有效波高可达9 m。此外，极地低压中的积雪和积冰被认为是操作和安全方面的危险。总体而言，海上作业可能不会在极低可能发生的时期内进行。
The Barents Sea wave conditions and the weather conditions that often accompany fully developed polar lows are presented in this paper. The studies on the extreme waves showed that the extreme waves in the Barents Sea decreases as we move further north. The Barents Sea wave conditions are found to be more accessible for marine operations in the summer months compared to the North Sea and the Norwegian Sea wave conditions. However, the quality of actual weather forecasts and the contribution of long periodic swells to the total sea in the Barents Sea could negate the longer weather windows observed in the area. Further, the weather conditions that often accompany fully developed polar lows represent limitations to marine operations in the Barents Sea. It was found that the significant wave height in polar lows could be up to 9 m. In addition, snow and ice accretion in polar lows are deemed operation and safety hazards. Overall, marine operation may not be carried out within the period when a polar low is likely to occur.
