title: Influence of Sea Surface Temperature Changes on the Development of Sprat (Sprattus sprattus phalericus (Risso)) (Pisces: Clupeidae) Living on the Southwestern Shelf of Crimea
abstract: A study of changes in sea surface temperature (SST) on the southwestern shelf of Crimea in 2000–2020 has been conducted. The equations of trends in the change in SST are found. It is shown that, according to the nature of changes in the average annual sea temperature, three periods can be distinguished: 2000–2007, 2008–2013, and 2014–2020. The influence of changes in the average annual SST on the development of pelagic fish of the cold-water complex (using the example of the Black Sea sprat) is
