Книга посвящена истории гидрографических исследований дальневосточных морей и северной части Тихого океана, а также морей восточного сектора Арктики. Автор, доктор исторических наук, кандидат географических наук, рассказывает о том, как создавалась современная карта Северо-Востока Азии.

Книга рассчитана на тех, кто интересуется историей и географией Дальнего Востока.

 

In Australia, the period from 1920 to the present is split by World War II into two sharply contrasting periods with respect to advances in knowledge of the geology of the continent. Between the two world wars geological work was almost entirely restricted to the Geological Surveys and universities of the six states. The official Geological Surveys were more and more confined to routine and ad hoc tasks, such as examination of mines and prospects, siting water bores, and giving assistance to prospectors and the mining industry generally.

В настоящее время Россия ограничена собственной марганцевой ресурсной базой. Наиболее востребованные в экономике черные металлы (Mn, Cr, Ti), цветные металлы (Cu, Ni, Co, Pb, Mo, W, Sn, Sb), редкие и рассеянные металлы и полуметаллы (Zr,Ta, Nb, Be, Y, Sc, Li, Ge, Re, Bi, Cd, Se, Ga, Tl, Re, Sc, Hf), а также благородные металлы (Au, Ag и платиноиды) имеют ограниченные континентальные ресурсы (Бортников и др., 2016). Эти причины побуждают исследователей к поиску новых источников высокотехнологичных элементов.

1. Деформации решетки клинопироксена; роль температуры и изменений в химическом составе

2. Изучение выветривания биотитов с помощью эффекта Мессбауэра 

3. Изотопы стронция в базальтах подводных гор северо-восточной части Тихого океана

4. Оптическое и рентгенографическое исследование системы BaSO4-SrSO4 (барит-целестин)

5. Осадочные серпентиниты из Срединно-Атлантического хребта

В последние годы в советской исторической и историко-географической науке надо отметить большой интерес к прошлому островов Тихого океана и северозападной Америки. Новое издание работы акад. Л.С. Берга «Открытие Камчатки и экспедиции Беринга» (1946J, его же «Очерки по истории русских географических открытий» (1946),

Книгой А.Киста «Австралия и острова Тихого океана» издательство продолжает серию книг «Континенты, на которых мы живем». Как и уже вышедшие в свет «Африка», «Южная и Центральная Америка», «Северная Америка», этот том дает широкое представление об исключительно своеобразной природе столь далекого от нас континента, а также еще более далеких островов Тихого океана. Издание богато иллюстрировано, в нем свыше ста оригинальных цветных и черно-белых фотографий

. Based upon early field studies within the Macarena range and the Roraima tepuis, Augusto Gansser documented the puzzling relationships between the Guiana Shield and the Andean belt, in the process formulating the “Roraima Problem” from a geomorphologic-stratigraphic standpoint.

Foraminifera have an evolutionary history that extends back to the Cambrian, more than 525 million years ago. Since then, they have radiated and evolved. To date, approximately 60,000 fossil and modern species have been validly recognized (LANGER, 2011), and an estimated 10,000 species (including only 40-50 planktonic species) are still living (VICKERMAN, 1992), constituting the most diverse group of shelled microorganisms in modern oceans (SEN GUPTA, 1999). These small-sized organisms, usually 0.1 to 1 mm, may be very abundant, and tens of thousands living specimens per square meter may be found in some environments (WETMORE, 1995). Their mineralized tests (shells) usually get preserved in the sediment after the death of the organism and may constitute a major, sometimes the dominant, part of many modern or fossil sediments (fig. 1). They are easy to collect, and their high-density populations provide an adequate statistical base, even in small volume samples, to perform environmental analyses, making them a powerful tool for environmental assessment. <...>
