The paper is aimed at studying the present state of water ecology of the Black Sea northwestern shelf (NWS). Since the early 60-ies of the last century, ecology in this region deteriorated seriously due to intensive anthropogenic load that resulted in eutrophication of waters and regular fish mortality in the warm period of a year. Methods and Results. In 1997-2013 Marine Hydrophysical Institute realized 7 hydrological and hydrochemical expeditions near the Danube mouth. The dissolved oxygen and
