Abstract :
The data on relative clarity or visibility of blue, green, red, and white (Secchi) disks measured in 1984 at the Black and Aegean seas during the 9th trip of the research vessel “Professor Kolesnikov” are presented. The analysis of results of measurements show strong correlation between visibilities of colored and Secchi disk. The regressional relationship between visibilities of blue, green and red disks and the visibility of the Secchi (white) disk are given and discussed
