Abstract
⺠Most microbial quality indicators in the Black Sea coastal zone vary by season. ⺠Low salinity and high temperatures may encourage non-native bacteria in estuaries. ⺠Temperature greatly impacts the occurrence and abundance of native Vibrio species. ⺠Marine somatic coliphage abundance is proportional to fecal pollution indices. ⺠Microbial water quality in the Georgian Black Sea improved from 2000 to 2008.
