“…Maintaining the current value would lead to an increased average level of about 0.8m in 50 years or 1.7m in the next 100 years. As a conclusion, the western Black Sea coast does not appear especially vulnerable to sea-level rise (Mihailov et al, 2018).…”

“…However, for the Mediterranean and Black Sea regions, the sea-level rise has been around 12 cm in the last century, which reaches the average record for the global sea-level rise estimated between 10 and 20 cm. The sea level is rising slowly but constantly (Mihailov et al, 2018), with an estimated rate in the Western Black Sea of approx. 1.37 mm/yr (at Constanta -Romania) and in the Eastern Black Sea side with 6.68mm/yr (Poti -Georgia).…”

Climate change poses significant challenges to global security by exacerbating existing threats and creating new ones. Competition over scarce resources such as food, water, and land will likely increase as extreme weather events and temperature rise will become more frequent. Climate-related migration is expected to increase political tensions, and in some regions, could contribute to instability and conflict. The changing climate will also impact infrastructure, the economy, and public health, which will have far-reaching security implications. The current issue of climate change highlights the spectre of a new source of instability and conflict that can affect national/international peace and security. Although comparative research and projects on the security implications of climate change are expanding, there are still major knowledge gaps. The paper presents the specialized literature on short-term climate change and its possible influence on the Black Sea regional security. It is increasing the potential insecurities that can arise from extreme environmental phenomena. Based on the assessment, the authors outline priorities for future research in the area of interest and cover the necessary adjustments to facilities, materials, and equipment due to progressive weather changes. It also highlights that natural disasters may increase in number or virulence, necessitating the contribution of armed forces to national security.

“…A sample of some results are shown on Figure 7. The converter is set for a wave with a height of 1.3m and a period of the wave T= 4.4 s, which wave parameters are common on the western coast of the Black Sea - [9,10]. For this purpose, 6 tons of concrete and 5 tons of seawater were poured into the buoy -a total of 11 tons of additional mass.…”

In this work, a single degree of freedom resonant converter model is proposed and theoretical studies of the converter are carried out. The converter is suitable for waves with height of up to 2 m and period of up to 5 seconds, such as the waves on the western coast of the Black Sea. It is shown that at resonance its power increases significantly and approaches the theoretical values of the power of the swell. In high waves (up to 5 m) its efficiency decreases, but its power remains relatively constant and equal to about half of its power at resonance.
