Abstract

The distribution of the shore wave energy flow components controls shore morpho- and lithodynamics as well as pollutant migration. Such processes were analyzed in the Temruke Bay in connection with the port “Temruke” reconstruction. Technogenic catastrophes and irresponsible dealing with waste rise hazard of pollution not only in the southern part of the Azov Sea but also in the part of the Black Sea contiguous to the Kerch Strait. Risk of pollution increasesduring storms.

Keywords
