What discoveries did Papanin residents make during the first expedition to the North Pole?

1. Papanin’s people for the first time in the history of geography recorded the depth of the ocean at the North Pole. It was 4 km 290 m.

2. At a depth of about 400 m, the Papanin people discovered the warm waters of the Atlantic current, the Gulf Stream, in the very center of the North Pole.

3. Discovered warm waters in the center of the Arctic gave reason to assume that there is life. Further research confirmed this conjecture: algae and crustaceans were found in the water.

4. In the course of meteorological studies, it turned out that the weather at the Pole is warmer than expected, and quite variable due to cyclones.
