Purpose. The paper is aimed at studying climatic trends in variability of the average annual and aver-age monthly fields of significant wave heights of the mixed and wind waves, swell and the wind speeds in the Black Sea region. Methods and Results . Based on the MIKE 21 SW numerical model, the significant wave heights’ fields of the mixed and wind waves, and also swell were obtained for the period from 1979 to 2018. Long-term wind velocity changes were analyzed using the ERA-Interim reanalysis
