For those who are at sea, for those who are at hydrometeorological posts, for those who are in the Central Forest Reserve, in Khanty-Mansiysk, in the Crimea, in Altai, in Kislovodsk, throughout the country, and we are the best of all, we are in Tyumen !!

Friends, colleagues and sympathizers! It's not too late to immortalize yourself on the maps of Tyumen, order a calendar or just donate 100 rubles to science. All the best to you!

Scientific expedition "Urbolandscapes of Tyumen" | planeta

The scientific student society brings together young people who, instead of having a rest during the holidays, are going to work; who in January, simultaneously with the examination session, will search for materials, process satellite images and read a lot to prepare for the expedition; who in February and March will process the brought samples, draw maps, evaluate, read a lot and write a report. And most importantly - these are people who believe that their scientific work is needed and able to change life in the city for the better. The guys created a project on the Planet, where a fundraiser for the expedition was announced. Well, who else should we support, if not them!

Dear friends and colleagues!
We are looking for sponsors of the winter expedition of the NSO department - legal entities and individuals.
We started studying urban landscapes – the impact of landscape mosaics on the sustainability of the urban environment, climate change, and living comfort. Methodological basis research - the concept of multifunctionality of natural and anthropogenic landscapes, so we will map urban geosystems and evaluate their regulatory and cultural functions in the understanding of the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (UN) and TEEB based on field and remote data and sociological surveys. Last year we explored the city of Tarusa, this year we are hosted by the Tyumen State University, in connection with which we are looking for financial support to pay for the travel of 11 people to the city of Tyumen.

For the Laboratory of Ecology of Aquatic Communities and Invasions, IPEE RAS, aerial photography of small water bodies of the Volga steppe was performed. Orthophotomaps and digital terrain models have been prepared for 4 sections of the Privolzhskaya forest-steppe Reserve.

The project of the Laboratory is aimed at studying the structure and dynamics of ecosystems of small forest-steppe water bodies experiencing anthropogenic and zoogenic impacts.

Orthophotomaps will be used to establish the morphometric parameters of small water bodies of different genesis in their seasonal and interannual dynamics. The purpose of the Project is a comparative analysis of the structure, functioning and dynamics of ecosystems of small water bodies in the forest-steppe zone, formed by zoogenic, anthropogenic and riverbed processes.

On April 11, the reports of the expeditions of the Scientific Student Society at the conference "Lomonosov-2017" were held. Our department presented the results of the expedition to Tarusa (Kaluga region). Research subject - "The structure of urban landscapes as the basis of urban planning (on the example of the city of Tarusa, Kaluga region)". Third-year student Alexander Moiseev had a hard time opening the conference, which he successfully coped with.

Irina Ivanovna Mamai - an outstanding landscape scientist, doctor of geographical sciences, leading Researcher Department, Honored Researcher of Moscow University, Honorary Member of the Russian Geographical Society, in the ranks of which she was more than 50 years old, passed away on January 29 at the age of 82 years.

A graduate of the Department of Physical Geography of the USSR, a favorite student of the founder of the Moscow Landscape and Geographic School N.A. Solntseva, Irina Ivanovna served science and education all her life. A tireless field researcher, Irina Ivanovna knew, loved and felt nature, the crowning achievement of which for her was the Landscape.
After graduating from the university in 1955, a young girl, Irina Ivanovna, was sent to Alma-Ata to work in the Alma-Ata land management expedition to select and delimit virgin and fallow lands. In 1958, Irina Ivanovna returned to the department, where, under the guidance of N.A. Gvozdetsky graduated from graduate school and in 1967 successfully defended her Ph.D. thesis “Theoretical and methodological issues of compiling a landscape map at a scale of 1:1000000 and its use in physical and geographical zoning (on the example of Western Kazakhstan); worked as head of the detachment of the Tselinnaya expedition of Moscow State University (1961-1963), head of the party of the Gorky expedition (1965-1966), then head, and later supervisor Meshcherskaya expedition, in which she worked until the end of her days.
Irina Ivanovna, a devoted follower of the school of N.A. Solntsev, became a teacher and inspirer of a team of young landscape scientists, generously passed on her rich experience and knowledge to them. Its multifaceted area scientific interests. These are the methodology and theory of landscape science, methods of studying and mapping landscapes, applied and regional problems, landscape indication; she made a significant contribution to the development of problems of structural-genetic, functional-dynamic and evolutionary-dynamic directions in landscape science. She substantiated the concepts of "state" and "change" of natural territorial complexes, suggested original technique their selection, formulated the rules for the formation of the evolutionary-dynamic series of PTC. Proposed by I.I. Mamai's genetic-dynamic landscape classification system very successfully supplemented the classification of V.A. Nikolaev. In 1994, she defended her doctoral thesis on "Landscape Dynamics (Methodology, Methods, Regional Problems"). recent years Irina Ivanovna gave lectures at the department and traveled for the field season to her beloved Lesunovo. She was the author of the original courses "Dynamics and functioning of landscapes", "Physical-geographical zoning", "Indicative landscape science", "Aerospace methods in physical geography".
I.I. Mamai published more than 100 scientific papers, including study guides and monographs - "Landscapes of the Ryazan Meshchera and the possibilities of their development" and "Landscapes of the Moscow region and their state of the art”, which are the reference books of Russian physical geographers.
Irina Ivanovna has always carried out a great scientific and organizational work. In the 70s she was the secretary of the department. Since 1992, she has been the head of the Landscape and Ecological Modeling Laboratory. For more than ten years she successfully performed the functions of the deputy head of the department for scientific work, until the end of her days she was the chairman of the physiographic commission of the Moscow branch (Center) of the Russian Geographical Society. She took part in the organization and holding of more than ten landscape meetings and conferences.

The staff of the department, her students and like-minded people, faculty colleagues will always remember Irina Ivanovna as the highest professional scientist, patient teacher, intelligent person and good friend! Bright memory!

Geography as a science has been developing at Moscow University for more than 200 years. A separate department of geography and ethnography was established in 1884 by the outstanding scientist and teacher D.N. Anuchin.

The Faculty of Geography of Moscow University was founded in 1938. Today it is the world's largest educational and scientific team of geographers. The structure of the faculty includes 15 departments and 8 research laboratories, 5 educational and scientific bases, 28 departmental laboratories, departments in the branches of Moscow State University in Sevastopol and Astana (Kazakhstan branch of Moscow State University). More than 800 students and 140 graduate students study at the faculty, 750 employees work, including one academician and three corresponding members of the Russian Academy of Sciences, honored scientists of the RSFSR and the Russian Federation, laureates of the State Prizes of the USSR and the Russian Federation, prizes of the Government of the Russian Federation in the field of education, science and technology, Lomonosov Prize of Moscow State University for scientific work and pedagogical activity, Anuchinsky Prize, etc.

The faculty has four, where approximately 30% of all Russian dissertations in the field of environmental and geographical sciences are defended.
