The paper examines the results of twelve-year (2007 to 2019) observations of spatial distribution and temporal changes in the concentrations of petroleum components in the coastal waters and sediment cores, as well as in the quantity and composition of oil slicks and tar balls on the beaches, cliffs and solid constructions of the Black Sea coast in the area of the city of Novorossiysk, which is the most important oil seaport of Russia, and in the Kerch Strait. 165 samples of seawater, 24 sediment cores up to 50 cm long split layer-bylayer into 108 samples, and 102 samples of oil slicks and tar balls were taken and analyzed with the use of thin layer and column chromatography, optical and gravimetric methods. The evidences of high level and chronic character of oil pollution of the studied coastal sectors are presented. Much attention is given to the dynamics of the natural transformation of oil slicks and tar balls found on the shore. It is shown that over time, under the influence of natural factors of attenuation, the oil slicks stranded ashore undergo an exponential decrease of the ratio between relatively labile hydrocarbons and conservative asphaltic components in their composition. The rate of the process may vary considerably depending on the size of oil pollution traces, their location on the coastal zone profile, as well as on the climatic, hydrological, and geomorphological conditions. An empirical statistical model is developed on the base of this data. This model makes it possible to classify and to map seacoasts according to their ability to degrade oil pollution using the information on the principal environmental parameters of attenuation.

The Impact

Anthropogenic impact on lithodynamics of the coastal zone changes the natural dynamics of bottom sediments, which leads to increased abrasion and swelling of beaches, activation of landslide processes creating a threat of destruction of the coastal infrastructure. The article aims at providing an overview of the scientific literature on the anthropogenic impact on lithodynamics of the coastal zone of the southern and western coasts of the Black Sea (shores of Romania, Bulgaria and Turkey). The work shows that with all the differences in the natural conditions of the coastal zones of these countries the types of anthropogenic effects they undergo are almost the same. These include: hydrotechnical construction without regard to the impact on the neighbouring coast sections; reduction of solid river flow due to river regulation by reservoirs; construction of capital facilities directly on the beaches; illegal extraction of sand from beaches and river beds; dredging with sale of the extracted material to construction companies; covering of cliffs by various structures; destruction of coastal dunes, etc. The main negative consequences of these actions are reflected in disruption of natural dynamics and shortages of bottom sediments, changes in the coastline, reduced aesthetic attractiveness and accessibility of shores, destruction of coastal ecosystems. The article also provides information on the legislation of these countries regarding environmental management in the coastal zone

The paper notes that the hydrocarbon potential of the Black Sea-Caspian region is not exhausted, and therefore the development of its resources is intensifying. The exploitation of oil and gas fields is closely associated with negative consequences for theenvironment. Therefore, the geo-environmental features of the area must be studied and taken into consideration. In relation to the Black Sea-Caspian region the authors have identified and described such features as: the diversity of geopolitical, regional-geological, geographical conditions; the factor of stability of the geological environment; oil pollution of the marine environment and the organization of monitoring of oil pollution.

On May 20, 2021, the head of the Laboratory of Lithodynamics and Geology of the Southern Department of the Institute of Oceanology of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Professor, Doctor of Geographical Sciences, prominent scientist and public figure Kosyan Ruben Derenikovich is 75 years old. R.D. Kosyan is a leading Russian expert in the field of studying the regularities of hydrogenic movements of detrital material in the coastal zone of the sea. He is a participant of many expeditions and thematic conferences, an expert on some major international projects, and lectures in various countries of the world. Under his leadership, a group of models was developed to calculate the long-shore sediment discharge, as well as the associated deformation of the relief in the coastal zone of the sea. R.D. Kosyan was awarded the Order of Courage, as well as the International Medal of the Black Sea Commission for merits in the study of the Black Sea. Congratulations to the wonderful scientist-oceanologist on the solemn date.
