Doctoral students will be engaged in laboratory work and field trips using instruments and equipment from the Laboratory of Comprehensive Physiographic Research. They will use the data to develop paleogeographic reconstructions on regional and interregional scales.
Galina Yamskikh
Research interests of Professor Yamskikh are related to the studies of changes in paleogeographic conditions of the environment in the River Yenisei basin during the last 50 ky. Special attention is paid to the trends of quantitative changes in Holocene climatic and landscape parameters using regression equations. Professor Yamskikh studies organogenic sediments and ancient encampments. Recently, Professor Yamskikh’s research has centered around comprehensive paleogeographic reconstructions in different landscape zones of the Yenisei region. The data and material are paleomalacofauna, paleosoils, and macroscopic plant remains. Future works will cover the interregional paleogeographic reconstructions of Holocene events and living conditions of prehistoric people.
