摘要介绍了目前对北海物理系统的认识。首先，将描述和分析天文潮汐和大气环流等基本现象的物理性质和各自的相互作用。将特别注重基本的动态平衡。接下来，将审议与海洋生态系统、经济和社会有关的一些具体专题：其中包括扩散和运输过程、淡水收支、热量收支和风暴潮。另一部分专门讨论北海的未来，即未来几十年全球变化造成的物理环境的预期变化。这些陈述是基于作者及其团队的长期经验，包括鲜为人知的发现。评论以开放性问题和相应的研究要求的列表结束。
Abstract The current state of understanding the North Sea’s physical system is presented. First, basic phenomena like astronomical tides and general circulation will be described and analysed with respect to their physical nature and respective interactions. There will be special focus on fundamental dynamic balances. Next, some specific topics relevant to the marine ecosystem, the economy and society will be considered: among them, spreading and transport processes, the fresh water budget, the heat budget and storm surges. A separate section is dedicated to the North Sea of Tomorrow, i.e. the prospective variations of the physical environment resulting from global changes in future decades. The statements are based on the long experience of the authors and their groups and include findings that are little known if at all. The review finishes with a list of open questions and the corresponding research demands.
