Spectral bio-optical properties of Black Sea coastal waters (near Sevastopol) with different trophic status were analysed. In summer 2020-2021, the chlorophyll <i>a</i> concentration (C<i>a</i>) differed by an order between stations, located in the apex of the Sevastopol Bay and at a distance ~2 miles from the Sevastopol Bay. At the station located in the apex of the Sevastopol Bay, effected by river runoff (the most trophic waters), the total particulate light absorption at wavelength 438 nm (<
