Results of long-term biooptical monitoring and parameterization of light absorption by phytoplankton, non-algal particles ( &alpha;<sub>NAP</sub>(&lambda;)) and colored dissolved organic matter (&alpha;<sub>CDOM</sub>(&lambda;)) in coastal surface waters of the Black Sea near Sevastopol have been presented. Seasonal differences in the relationship between phytoplankton light absorption coefficients and chlorophyll a concentrations, which are associated with annual dynamics in the intracellular p
