“…Later on, the most of these basins experienced folding and inversion under the impact of orogeny in the Caucasus and in Crimea [17][18][19][20][21]. The Southern Crimean basin totally entered the Crimean orogeny.…”

The accomplished analysis has found out that the study basins were the parts of the Black Sea-Caspian basin system in the Mesozoic era, partly participated in dislocation tectonics later on, and are the part of the Alpine folding zone from the viewpoint of the modern tectonic zoning. Furthermore, the analysis has set the main stages of the sedimentation cross-section formation with the specified sedimentary depocenters at each stage, which allows reconstructing the sedimentation evolution. The studies of the delineated area reveal four zones of stable downwarping within the period of the plate mantle formation: the Karkinit, Indol-Kuban, Eastern Kuban and Terek-Caspian basins. Each basin features unique evolution in terms of different tectonics modes and sedimentation velocities. These factors govern the geological structures of the basins-different thickness relationships of sedimentary units.

The field of internal waves in the Black Sea is quite significant. The Black Sea shelf is of particular interest, but it has not been studied enough in some specific regions. For example, a narrow and steep shelf of Abkhazia has been poorly explored. Particularly unexplored are the actual parameters and causes of the generation of internal waves in this area. In this article, we have attempted to fill this gap by analyzing remote sensing data and in situ data. An analysis of a set of optical multispectral satellite images (Sentinel-2, Landsat-8) and a collection of sea-truth data of the shelf zone of Abkhazia was carried out to identify features of internal wave fields of this region. In situ data were acquired over 9 years using ADCP, CTD, and SVP probes and moored stations with point and line temperature sensors. It is shown that internal waves are widespread on the Abkhazian shelf. They appear as trains of short-period waves (as a rule, soliton-like). The quantitative parameters and features of internal waves are shown and analyzed. The form of manifestation and direction of internal wave trains’ travel depend on the mechanisms of their origin, among which are the transformations of inertial internal waves, generation by river plumes, and submesoscale structures. In general, the article is the most complete and relevant study of the field of internal waves on the shelf of Abkhazia.

“…The troughs generally have a V-shaped profile with a maximum depth of 4000 to 5000 m (Goncharov and Mikhailov, 1964 Profiles of the Nile Cone also indicate several terrace levels. Chemogenic sediments of calcareous composition (oolites) probably cover the south edge of the Levantine Sea (Emelyanov, 1972).…”
