title: THE ECOLOGICAL CONDITION OF COASTAL WATERS OFF THE HERACLES PENINSULA (CRIMEA, THE BLACK SEA)
abstract: The results of the long-term monitoring of coastal waters off the Heracles Peninsula (Crimea, the Black Sea) are presented. The abiotic and biotic parameters, indicating the ecological condition of the coastal zone, have been studied. The following parameters have been measured by standard methods: water temperature, illuminance, concentration of particulate matter, organic matter, primary production, intensity of biotic reproduction of particulate matter, phytoplankton and meroplankton species
