title: Structure of the Black Sea Currents Based on the Results of the LADCP Observations in 2004–2014
abstract: The article presents the core results of lowered acoustic Doppler current profiler (LADCP) applied in the Black Sea within 2004-2014. Average features of the vertical structure of currents in the upper 600 m layer are outlined. The linear relation between vertical distribution of kinetic energy isopycnically averaged over the station ensemble and density is established. This relation is traced till the isopycn occurrence depth with density of 17 kg/m 3 (~500 m). The mean current velocity has nea
