Purpose. The aim of the work is to assess the role of the basic forces in formation of the dynamic structures of the upper layer in the Marmara Sea in different hydrological seasons. Methods and Results. The numerical model developed in Marine Hydrophysical Institute, Russian Academy of Sciences, was used to calculate the hydrodynamic and energy characteristics of the sea circulation. The horizontal spatial resolution was 1.22 × 0.83 km, 18 horizons were used vertically, and the time step was 0.
