Alternatively, the Arctic Ocean can be seen as the northernmost part of the all-encompassing World Ocean. - The Kara Strait or Kara Gates is a 56km (35mi) wide channel of water between the southern end of Novaya Zemlya and the northern tip of Vaygach Island.

The length of the gulf is approx. 180km, mouth width - 78km, depth - up to 20 m. Surface water temperature is 5-6C during summertime. The gulf freezes up during winter.

The estuary opens roughly northwestwise from the western coast of the Taymyr Peninsula into the eastern expanses of the Kara Sea , widening from about 4 km at the river 's mouth to about 20 km. Its length , including the wider gulf , is about 50 km , and its width roughly 40 km. Taymyr Island is located about 60 km westwards from the mouth of the estuary . The climate in the desolate area of the Taymyr Gulf is severe , with long and bitter winters and frequent blizzards and gales . The estuary proper is frozen for about nine months in a year and even in summer it is never quite free of ice floes . Fishes like the golets and the muksun are very common in its waters . - The Laptev Sea ("more Laptevykh") is a marginal sea of the Arctic Ocean. It is located between the northern coast of Siberia, the Taimyr Peninsula, Severnaya Zemlya and the New Siberian Islands. Its northern boundary passes from the Arctic Cape to a point with co-ordinates of 79N and 139E, and ends at the Anisiy Cape. The Kara Sea lies to the west, the East Siberian Sea to the east. - The Kara Sea ("Karskoye more") is part of the Arctic Ocean north of Siberia. It is separated from the Barents Sea to the west by the Kara Strait and Novaya Zemlya, and the Laptev Sea to the east by the Severnaya Zemlya archipelago. It is named for the Kara River (flowing into Baydaratskaya Bay), which is now relatively insignificant but which played an important role in the Russian conquest of northern Siberia.
