Short summary
This study is focused on water exchange between the Sea of Azov and the Black Sea. The Sea of Azov is a small freshened sea that receives a large freshwater discharge and, therefore, can be regarded as a large river estuary connected by narrow Kerch Strait with the Black Sea. In this work we show that water transport through the Kerch Strait is governed by wind forcing and does not depend on the river discharge rate to the Sea of Azov on an intra-annual timescale.
