Abstract: This review discusses the current status of and prospects for large-scale Cherenkov detectors that operate in deep-underwater and under-ice environments (Lake Baikal, Mediterranean Sea, Antarctica) and which have, in recent decades, become the primary tool for measuring high-energy neutrino fluxes.

Keywords: Cherenkov radiation, neutrino telescopes, neutrino astrophysics.
