The trends in climatic changes in hydrometeorological, biological, fisheries and
anthropogenic characteristics of the Sea of Azov and the Black Sea ecosystems
during 1980-2010 are considered. Despite the high annual variability in means
of the characteristics, the significant amount of analyzed variables can be
described with both linear and periodic trends. The main changes in variables
considered fall on the periods of 1989-1990 and 2005-2006. The changes are
explained by both natural and technogenic reasons. It is concluded, that there
is a high probability of fish productivity recovery in 30th-40th of XXI century to
the level of 1970th-1980th in the Sea of Azov and the Black Sea if anthropogenic
impact will decrease of stabilize.
