title: PECULIARITIES OF THE MERIDIONAL DISTRIBUTION AND TEMPORAL VARIABILITY OF SURFACE TEMPERATURE AND SALINITY IN THE WESTERN PART OF THE BLACK SEA DURING 1998–2000
abstract: Problem Statement and Purpose. The evaluation of thermohaline parameters of the seawater is the most accessible indicator of the variability of processes and the determination of trends in their development. The use of observations of the temperature and salinity of the surface layer of water, obtained by their continuous registration from the board of a specially equipped vessel, allows for obtaining a detailed picture of the statistical variability along the direction of movement and character
