Abstract

The unique features of the Black Sea hydrology are considered due to its isolation from the World Ocean and the specificity of its connection with it, a large catchment area, the presence of a pronounced vertical density stratification of waters, leading to a sharp stratification of the sea into a thin desalinated upper layer and deep salt layer. The history of the study of the Black Sea is briefly presented. Modern ideas about the peculiarities and specifics of water circulation in the sea are given. It is shown that the main reason for regional differences in climatic changes in the Black Sea from other areas of the world ocean is the two-layer hydrological structure of waters and the inland position of the sea. The history of the formation of the Black Sea basin is discussed.
