Abstract
Hydrophysical studies in 2004–2018 showed that the cyclonic gyre of the Middle Caspian Sea is not a year-round circulation. In the cold season, the current in the cyclonic gyre intensifies, while in the warm season, the circulation weakens and the directed current turns into a drift one, except for the western part, where the water is transferred from the Middle Caspian to the southern part of the sea due to the difference in the levels of the basins. It is shown that the current in the cyclonic circulation follows the contour above the slope of the Derbent Basin in the entire layer from the surface to the bottom. The seasonal boundaries of the annual intensification and weakening of the cyclonic circulation are revealed.
