The contemporary state of tsunami research for the Black Sea is reviewed. General physical and geographical parameters of historical tsunamis are summarized based on tide-gauge observations and verbal descriptions. Probable source zones of catastrophic waves were located. Physical patterns of tsunami propagation in the open sea and in the shelf zone were derived by numerical modeling.
