N2 - The characteristics of currents and sea level wave perturbations of synoptic scale in the Chukchi Sea are compared with well-known dispersion relations of low-frequency waves of different types. This comparison allowed identifying the currents and sea level wave perturbations as internal Kelvin waves and barotropic and baroclinic topographic waves. Assessments of statistical relations between wave perturbations of currents and different meteorological characteristics showed that the energy supply of low-frequency waves is provided sporadically by various components of anemobaric (wind-induced) forces in the local areas of the Chukchi Sea and the Bering Strait.
