Potential resources of hydrocarbon in Ukraine according to current geological prognosis have been estimated about 6,4109 t of conditional fuel. Proved reserves oil and gas are 230106 t and 1165109 м3 accordingly [1]. The reserves could ensure the production of 7- 8106 t/year of oil, and 30 – 35109м3/year of gas. Continue Reading »

Main sources of the nutrients input in the Black Sea surface layer are: river discharge, distributed coastal discharge (rainfall and wastewater runoffs, groundwater), atmospheric and deep-water inputs. In average, 88% of phosphates, 57% of total phosphorus, 82% of silicon and 89% of nitrites are coming into the sea with the river water [1]. Therefore, studies and monitor Continue Reading »

For the first time a study was carried out on the similarities and differences in the meroplankton in two interconnected basins - the Eastern Mediterranean and the Western Black Sea. The qualitative and quantitative distribution of the larval meroplankton were studied during the expedition on the R/V "Academic Kovalevskii", in autumn 1984.
In the Aegean Sea, 135 zooplankton samples were taken from 12 stations at depths ranging be Continue Reading »
