The energy sector, among others, is one of the strategic sectors for any country regardless the degree of development. Being one of the most dynamic sectors due to the exponential need for energy, in most cases is unfriendly for the environment due to the conventional methods of extraction that are more affordable than those unconventional. The Romanian energy sector is no exception. In these conditions, the main objective of this paper is to evaluate the renewable energy potential of the Romania territory, namely...

The aim of the presented paper is to analyze the 10-meter wind (U10) conditions of the western part of the Black Sea during the present and near future interval. More precisely, 10 locations were studied. Regarding the geographical location, the points of interest are located in the range 40oN to 47oN and 27oE to 34oE as follows: 2 points are near to the Ukraine?s coast line, 3 to Romania?s coast line, 2 to Bulgaria?s coast line and 3 to Turkey?s coast line. Thus, for analyzing the wind conditions during the prese...

The article is dedicated to the study of hydrometeorological parameters on a stationary oceanographic platform in the Black Sea. The research paper contains the description developed in the Marine Hydrophysical Institute?s complex for measuring meteorological parameters (wave height, wind speed and direction, free-air and sea temperature, barometric pressure, relative humidity). The measurements were carried out on a stationary oceanographic platform located in the coastal zone of the southern coast of Crimea at a...

The impact of the extreme atmospheric conditions in the context of climate changes is a topic often studied at a global scale. The aim of the presented work is to analysis the extreme wind condition at a much smaller scale represented by the Black Sea area. For this perspective, the presented paper presents a comprehensive picture of the extreme atmospheric conditions along the coastlines of Romania, Bulgaria, Turkey, Georgia, Russia and Ukraine. More precisely, eight geographical locations were analyzed, together...
