Yes;


That's a tough question.

Ice hardened patrol vessels.


A cold weather air strip with survey craft, and possible fighter support (pie in the sky)


Deep water sensor grid


As much as submarine patrols are probably the best idea, you have to have the endurance to stay under the ice for a long period of time, and have the ability to come up through the ice as needed.
