title: HYDROCARBON POLLUTION OF WATER AND BOTTOM SEDIMENTS IN COASTAL AREAS OF THE CAUCASIAN SECTOR OF THE BLACK SEA (2021, 2022)
abstract: The current levels of aliphatic (20 μg/L, IR method) and polycyclic aromatic (90 ng/L, fluorescence method) hydrocarbons in suspended particulate matter of surface water and in bottom sediments have been determined in the coastal areas of the Caucasian sector of the Black Sea within the boundaries of the Russian Federation (in September 2021, May and September 2022). Despite the decrease in hydrocarbon concentrations in surface water over recent years, the Kerch Strait belongs to the most pollut
