Direction: Development of methods and tools of geophysical monitoring for the study of dynamic processes in the lithosphere-atmosphere-ionosphere system in preparation for and during earthquakes; solving the problems of identifying weak seismogenic signals against the background of disturbances caused by solar flares and geomagnetic storms.

Perspective directions:

Study of the transmission mechanisms of seismogenic disturbances in the lithosphere-atmosphere-ionosphere-magnetosphere system and their analysis during geoeffective solar events.
Development of methods and means of geophysical monitoring necessary for the study of dynamic processes in the lithosphere-atmosphere-ionosphere-magnetosphere system in preparation for and during earthquakes.
Theoretical description of perturbations of electric and magnetic fields, as well as a system of currents in a conducting earth during the propagation of purely surface electromagnetic perturbations. Study of cosmic rays in the energy range (1-1000) PeV to clarify their elemental composition and the astrophysical nature of the sources of their acceleration.(Изменено)Восстановить исходный вариант

Projects:

  1. “Research of the state of the geophysical environment over the sources of strong earthquakes for the diagnosis and prediction of dangerous events of lithospheric origin” 2018-2021.
  2. “Monitoring and research of intergeospheric interactions in the lithosphere-atmosphere-ionosphere system in geodynamic active regions” 2021-2023.

Main results: Intergeospheric interactions were studied on the basis of radiation, infrasound and electromagnetic methods in geodynamic active regions. As a result, anomalous effects were revealed in the lithosphere-atmosphere-ionosphere system during seismogenic and geoeffective solar events.
