“…The density jump layer is in the range of 35-50 m [10]. Seismoacoustic studies conducted in conjunction with the selection of columns of bottom sediments showed that the Holocene sediment of the Azov Sea was formed under conditions of unstable sea level [14]. In the process of joint use of the side-scanning sonar and hydroacoustic profiler, new data on the structure of the bottom relief and thickness of bottom sediments in different parts of the water area of the eastern part of the Taganrog Bay were obtained.…”

“…High resolution seismic data showed high performance of SES 2000 light Profiler in the shallow waters of the Azov Sea, especially with detailed seismic facies analysis and identification of anomalous gas saturation areas in bottom sediments. On the profile in the area of the Sazalnitskaya Spit in the studied thickness of the bottom sediments, three acoustic boundaries were distinguished, with the upper boundary of the layer located 15 cm from the bottom surface [14].…”

Study of natural and anthropogenic processes in the southern seas of Russia is a priority task of the Southern scientific center of Russian Academy of Sciences. Annually for 15 years, the Southern scientific center of RAS carried out sea expeditions in the south of Russia. The year of 2017 was marked as a 10-year anniversary of the first expedition of the R/V Deneb in the Azov and Black seas. During a five-year period from 2012 to 2016, 36 complex expeditions in the Azov and Black seas were carried out by R/V Deneb; the oceanographic database was enriched with the data of 3500 oceanological stations, more than 11,000 samplings were done at more than 900 complex hydrobiological stations. The expeditionary materials enlarged the oceanographic database of the Southern scientific center: the field and archival data permitted to assess long-term dynamics of organic matter and carbon, the Azov Sea transparency and salinity and to calculate the characteristics of small-scale variability of temperature, salinity, internal waves and level fluctuations in the Azov and Black seas. The research in the Black Sea provided extensive synchronous data which characterize current state of the most vulnerable psammophilic benthic communities at the depths of 2-20 m. The estuaries of small rivers at their junction with the sea were studied in details. The new data on distribution and quantitative characteristics of jelly-like-, phyto-and pico-plankton over the whole shelf area of the Russian sector of the Black Sea is obtained. The Black Sea population of newcomers -Holland crabs (Rhitropanopaeus harrisi tridentate) -living exclusively in the sea canyons with unstable salinity was studied. The metagenomic approaches applied to study the plankton communities in the Azov and Black seas, were used to obtain new data on diversity and structure of marine bacterial communities. The oceanological observation data on the environment conditions in the Azov and Black seas are annually directed to the Hydrographic department of the Black Sea Navy of Russian Federation where it is used in the field service.

“…Near large population centers, the oil content in water increased to 0.10 mg/l. In the area of Ust-Donetsk port, high concentrations up to 0.122 mg/l were monitored [5][6][7][8]. In the Don River delta in the area of backlog of vessels in the hourly observation mode an increased content of oil products, from 0.058 to 0.120 mg/l with an average value of 0.085 mg/l, was also recorded.…”

“…In the Don River delta in the area of backlog of vessels in the hourly observation mode an increased content of oil products, from 0.058 to 0.120 mg/l with an average value of 0.085 mg/l, was also recorded. At the delta edge, the concentration of oil hydrocarbons increased to 0.134 mg/l, and after leaving the Bay it decreased, not exceeding an average of 0.075 mg/dm 3 , which corresponds to moderate pollution [5][6][7][8]. In spring-summer period, the concentration of oil components in the river water increased.…”

“…At the same time, the concentrations of oil components in the bottom layer almost everywhere exceed the concentrations in the surface layer of water of both the Taganrog Bay and the sea itself. During winter, a high level of pollution was noted in the Azov Sea, with maximum values observed in the western part of the Taganrog Bay (up to 0.802 mg/l) and minimum ones in the sea itself (up to 0.299 mg/l) [5][6][7][8].…”

The Taganrog Bay of the Azov Sea has attracted attention of scientists for more than 100 years. In different periods intensity of research sometimes increased, sometimes decreased; and in 2003 alone, when the Southern scientific center of RAS (SSC RAS) was formed, it became possible to perform the year-round, large-scale and comprehensive studies of the marine environment and biota both in the Bay and in the river Don which is the most important river-way of the southern Russia. The investigations carried out in course of the past 15 years have permitted to solve many riddles existing in the Taganrog Bay paleo-history, to study formation of its bioproductivity and the features of its hydrological and hydro-biological regimes, to perform large-scale assessment of anthropogenic activity (pollution, fishing, poaching, shipping, etc.). Such a marine scientific research would be impossible but for the research vessel (R/V) "Professor Panov" named in honor of the outstanding Russian marine geologist and geo-morphologist, professor of the Leningrad and the Rostov universities D. G. Panov. During 15 years, due to the R/V "Professor Panov" more than 150 expeditions were performed that permitted to collect a significant amount of modern information which significantly expanded our notions on the Taganrog Bay and the Sea of Azov. The expeditions on board the R/V "Professor Panov" are complex and answer the purposes and problems of modern oceanology in the fields of hydrology, hydro-biology, hydro-chemistry, lithology, paleogeography, ornithology, etc.
