Abstract

Based on the processing of the hydrometrical data stock accumulated between 1861-1975, the average multiannual values of the water discharge and the suspended silts discharged by the Danube River into the Black Sea are presented in the paper. For a period of 115 years the average value of the water discharge was 6283m3/s (198.14 x 109m3/yr) and that of the suspended silts discharge was 1569 kg/s (49*48 x 106 t/yr). It has been found that the tendency of the Danube water turbidity in the past years is lowering.
