Laboratory staff members Robert Sandlersky and Anastasia Baybar presented their research findings at a scientific conference «The Theory of Geosystems: History and Modernity», which was held from 16 to 18 June 2025 at the V.B. Sochava Institute of Geography of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences in Irkutsk.
The key topics of the conference were:
1) Viktor Borisovich Sochava – geographer, geobotanist, cartographer, educator, science organiser, memories of Academician V.B. Sochava;
2) the theory of geosystems as a theoretical and methodological basis for the development of the concept of human co-creation with nature;
3) the theory and methodology of geobotanical mapping and regionalisation;
4) mapping and geoinformation modelling of geosystems for the purposes of planning rational nature management. A total of 45 reports were presented at the conference, devoted not only to the theoretical and methodological aspects of the development of the teachings of V.B. Sochava and his followers on geosystems, but also on modern methods of mapping and modelling geosystems and their individual components based on GIS and remote sensing, as well as the applied use of research results for the organisation of rational nature management.
Air temperature and population health in Russian cities: results of the first national study, 2000–2019
On May 15, the International Laboratory for Population and Health, in collaboration with the International Laboratory of Landscape Ecology, held a seminar on “Air temperature and population health in Russian cities: results of the first national study, 2000–2019.”The seminar featured presentations by Sergey Timonin, a research fellow at the Australian National University, and Natalia Shartova, a postdoctoral researcher at the Barcelona Institute for Global Health.
Laboratory staff Robert Sandlersky and Anna Gorbacheva presented their research results at the Ninth National Scientific Conference with International Participation "Mathematical Modeling in Ecology" (EcoMatMod-2025), which was held from April 2 to 5, 2025 at the Institute of Physicochemical and Biological Problems of Soil Science of the Russian Academy of Sciences in Pushchino. The conference has been held regularly since 2009 and traditionally brings together a wide range of researchers whose work is devoted to mathematical modeling in various fields of biology and ecology
The key areas of the conference this year were modeling the processes of growth and development of living organisms, the dynamics of populations and communities; modeling of ecological complexity, statistical and spatial modeling; modeling of element cycles and matter flows in ecosystems, including at the regional and global levels; mathematical models in soil science and landscape science; mathematical models as a tool for supporting decision-making in problems of managing biological resources, solving climate change problems and rational nature management.
