Abstract
Purpose. This article is devoted to study the history of accumulative landforms in the coastal zone of the north-western part of the Black Sea. In the course of the study two main periods of Coastal Research were used – descriptive and instrumental. The research sites of the study were considered based on the factors that influence the formation and evolution of the coast. On the basis of the literature reviewed, the works of some prominent scientists over the past years were consulted which formed the basic platform of this article. The outcome of their findings paved the way for the establishment of further research work on the study of accumulative coast. The purpose of our study is based on a retrospective analysis which characterizes the historical study on the accumulative coast of the north-western part of the Black Sea (from the Cape to the Big Fountain Zhebriyanovskoy Bay). Data & Methods. Research data gathered from the libraries of ONU named after Mechnikov were the main sources of information from which this publication was written and scientific works to this publication is very immense (monographs, textbooks, abstracts, articles, and abstracts of all Russian and international conferences), renown scientists of Ukraine and the former Soviet Union (1921- 1991). In carrying out this work we used methods of retrospective study, historical and geographical, and scientific method of analysis to summarize and organize the wide variety of processed materials. Results. A retrospective analysis of a large amount of research materials were distinguished into two main periods for descriptive and as instruments in the historical study of accumulative coasts in the study area. It was revealed that the accumulative landforms and the factors influencing their formation and transformation in general were studied at a high level. However, the latest integrated coastal research conducted over 30 years ago are in need of new data with the use of modern technologies which takes into consideration the geographical changes, the modern meteorological conditions and the impact of anthropogenic load on the coastal zone of the Black Sea. With the use of these study materials it is easy to draw conclusions on the observed changes in the morphology and dynamics of the coasts in a given time period and also predict future changes.
