Abstract
On the Black Sea hydrophysical polygon and stationary oceanographic platform located in the coastal zone near the Kikineiz Cape of the South coast of Crimea the regional dynamic experiment had been making from 2002 to 2015. It was aimed on reseach of the dynamics of coastal currents during monitoring of the variability of regional anemobaric conditions. The presence of modern measuring base and the introduction of new information technology to improve the processing and analysis allowed simultaneously obtaining long-term representative sets of time series of vector fields of coastal currents and winds in the atmosphere layer above the sea and over land. The brief description of the observations is given and the results obtained based on the long-term studies of coastal currents dynamics by vertical antenna of autonomous vector-averaging gauge metering a horizontal current component in the open sea are discussed. The prospects of the use of new information technology for in situ research, monitoring and classification of the coastal dynamic in the Black Sea are determined.
