On the basis of contact and satellite data the informative depth in the Kerch Strait is estimated. This parameter is varied in the range of 2 – 4 m. It is minimum, when saturated suspension Azov water is dominated in the strait, and it is maximum when the Black Sea waters with minimum concentration of suspended matter are propagated on the water area of strait.
