Abstract: | We study specific features of the vertical distribution of elements of the main biogenic cycle in the upper layers of waters
on the northwest shelf of the Black Sea in spring and autumn and the correlation between the specific features of the vertical
distributions of hydrochemical and hydrological characteristics. It is shown that the location of the halocline always specifies
the location of the chemocline, whereas the effect of the thermocline on the distribution of hydrochemical characteristics
is ambiguous. The vertical distribution of the hydrochemical parameters can be homogeneous in the presence of the seasonal
thermocline. At the same time, in its absence, one may observe significant vertical gradients in the distributions of hydrochemical
characteristics inside the upper mixed layer. |
