“…Submesoscale dynamics is characterized by significant seasonal and interannual variability (Buckingham et al., 2016; Callies et al., 2015; Capet et al., 2008; Puzina et al., 2021). Several authors showed that in many regions of the World, including the Black Sea (Puzina et al., 2021) it intensifies in winter due to the baroclinic instability of the deep winter mixed layer (Callies et al., 2015; Capet et al., 2008; Mensa et al., 2013; Puzina et al., 2021). During the warm period of the year, the important reasons for the generation of SE: are frontogenesis (Thomas & Ferrari, 2008), topographic and shear instability of currents (Aleskerova et al., 2021; Gula et al., 2015; McWilliams, 2016; Zatsepin et al., 2011).…”
