Journal: Monitoring systems of environment
Year: 2021

In 2020-2021, potential recruitment of the mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis was measured in Sevastopol estuarine waters with regard to temperature, salinity, and pH in three depth horizons 1–3, 7, and 11 m. Compared to the previous annual period in 2021, spring mussel recruitment at all depth horizons in-creased by an order of magnitude. This increase was preceded by a mild winter. Also in 2021, a decrease in salinity and an increase in the vertical variability of the thermohaline structure of w
