The History of the Black Sea Coastal Zone Studies
The exploration of the Black Sea coast by Russian hydrographers began in the early 19th century. Hydrographic expeditions of Budishev (1802) and Zarudny (80-ties of the 19th century) provided...

The General Characteristic of the Black Sea Coasts
The total length of the Black Sea coast is 4431 km. These shores have been developing in various natural conditions formed through the entire history of this basin. So, the coasts may...

Transformation of the Black Sea Coast and Shelf by Wave Erosion in Pliocene-Pleistocene
Theory of transformation of coast and shelf of the ancient and modern seas by waves is presented. It allows to work out a scheme of adjoining land and shelf evolution on the basis of basin...

The Specific Peculiarities of Relief Transformation and Shelly Sediment Differentiation in Coastal Zone
The settling velocities values of shelly sediment considerably differ from ones of the same particles of terrigeneous material and for this reason character and intensity of hydrodynamic...

Wave Boundary Layer Above the Submerged Coastal Slope
A calculation method of parameters of turbulent boundary layer formed by waves is proposed. A calculation of boundary layer on a rough slope with inclination typical for steep Caucasian...

Geoecology of the Black Sea Coastal Zone
Author understands geoecology as a field of science investigating mechanisms of destruction of biosphere by man through his influence on the ocean relief, sediments and suspended matter....

Technogenic Pollution of the Caucasian Black Sea Coastal Zone and Specific Features of Self-Purification
Within the scope of ecological monitoring in 1989-1991 pollution of river and sea water and bottom sediments with oil products (OP, poly-aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), pesticides (PC), toxic...

Ecology of Gelendzhik Bay
Natural conditions of Gelendzhik bay and process of its ecological degradation during last year are described in this paper. The main flow of pollutants enters form the city and vineyards...

Ecological Situation of the Black Sea Coastal Zone
Some aspects of the Black Sea ecosystems evolution are discussed with regard of growing volumes of discharged pollutants and encroachment of Mnemopsisleidyi. The data characterizing ecological...

Longshore Sediment Transport and Radionuclide Dispersion in the Black Sea Coastal Zone
After the Chernobyl accident the studies of the longshore sediment transport in the Black Sea have got new applications connected with a marine pollution problem. The method to calculate...

Scientific Basis of Regulation of Coastal Processes (Case Study: Coast of the Black Sea)
SIA Saknapirdatsva experience in creation of gravel beaches for the coast protection from wave erosion is generalized in this paper. A conclusion has been made that the most expedient...

Development and Modern Dynamics of Alluvial-Accumulative Coasts of the Eastern Black Sea
River regime, river sediment and wave processes are greatly important in the alluvial accumulative coast evolution. The Black Sea coast of the Georgia may be a good example of such coast...

Pitzunda Peninsula Coast Dynamics
The dynamics of Pitzunda Peninsula during last 100 years is examined in this paper. The process of sediment shift and coastline evolution during last 30 years is considered in detail....

Modern Fluxes of Suspended Matter in the Caucasian Black Sea Coastal Zone
In 1989-1991 bottom fluzes of suspended matter were measured in the Black Sea costal zone. Sedimentary traps (mouth area 1194 cm) were placed in 16 points between Novorossiysk and Sochi....

Regularities of the Abrasive Coast Development of the Ukrainian Black Sea
The length of the Ukrainian Black Sea coast between Danube delta and Kerch Strait is 1628 km. Abrasive cliffs with rates of abrasion from 0.1 to 4.7 m/y (average multi-year data) are common....

South Coast of the Crimea: Environmental Specificity and Coast Protection Problems
Climate conditions and geological structure of the Crimean South coast are described in this paper. Morphometrical data on submerged coast slope are given. Today, out of 100 km of the...

Waves and Currents Near the Kinburn Spit Extremity
A method of calculation of wave transformation and of currents generated by waves in a surf zone, including a spit extremity is offered. No additional hypothesis on radial stress and wave...

The Flows of Suspended Sandy Material Along the Section of Bulgarian Coast
Combining of available models of elementary hydro- and lithodynamic processes in a single calculation scheme permits to evaluate the volumes of detrital material transported either way...

A Comparative Study on the Hindcasted Wave Climates
For the various sites of Turkish Black Sea Coast wave prediction is carried out by the use of two different wind data sources obtained both from coastal meteorological stations and synoptic...

Wave Climate Studies Along the Turkish Coast of the Black Sea
Wind-generated waves produce the most powerful forces to which coastal structures are subjected. Therefore, wave information is required for the proper planning and reliable design of...
