Abstract This work is devoted to an analysis of the influence of sea surface boundary conditions on results of Black Sea level modeling. Two numerical experiments are carried out by using a z-coordinate model of the Marine Hydrophysical Institute, RAS. A linear kinematic condition on the free surface is used for calculating a level rise in the first experiment and a nonlinear one – in the second experiment. The analysis shows that both experiments reconstruct the Black Sea surface dynamics in ac
