Dyakov N. Modern hydrometeorological regime of Sea of Azov

The thesis is devoted to research changes of the hydro-meteorological regime of the Sea of Azov, its thermohaline structure of waters and a water balance influenced by the regional evidence of the global climate changes and an anthropogenesis influence on the runoff during past 30 years. The array of the thermohaline fields of the Sea of Azov for the different climatic conditions and the anthropogenesis removal of the runoff is created taking into account a contribution of different types of variability in a total variance of these fields. Based on the most comprehensive oceanographic information database, the new insights about of the spatial and temporal variability of the thermohaline characteristics of the western least explored part of the Sea of Azov are obtained. The estimation of a contribution of the climatic and anthropogenic factors to decrease of salinity of the Sea of Azov during past 30 years is received. The new interannual trends of changes of water balance components for many years of the Sea of Azov as consequence of the natural and anthropogenic factors are identified. The main results have been used in carrying out applied a research on the meteorological support of design of the technological platforms and solutions of the environmental problems on the shelf of the Azov-Black Sea basin.
