This paper presents and discusses the results of optical and biological measurements performed during the coccolithophore blooms. This study uses data of measurements from a stationary oceanographic platform (near the Southern coast of Crimea, 44°23' N, 33°59' E) in July 2012 (7–16 July) and in May 2017 (24–31 May), and data obtained during the R/V “Professor Vodyanitsky” expedition to the northern part of the Black Sea in June 2017 (14–30 June).
