Aim. To determine physiologically expedient rates of mineral nitrogen in winter rye production on sod-podzol- ic soils based on the orientation of the processes of biological nitrogen transformation in the plants rhizosphere. Methods. Field studies, gas chromatography determination of potential nitrogen fi xation activity and potential emissions of N 2 O. Results. The results obtained have demonstrated that the rates of mineral nitrogen, not ex- ceeding 60 kg/ha, can be considered physiologically expedient for winter rye production on sod-podzolic soils. Under the application of microbial preparation Diazobakteryn, there is a higher physiological need of plants for nitrogen, which allows increasing the rates of nitrogen fertilizers up to 90 kg/ha. Conclusions. The orienta- tion of the processes of biological nitrogen transformation in the root zone of plants is a reliable indicator of determining the appropriateness of nitrogen fertilization of crops.

Abstract. Methods for the determination of ship fuel sulphur content and NOx emission factors based on remote measurements have been compared in the harbour of Rotterdam and compared to direct stack emission measurements on the ferry Stena Hollandica. The methods were selected based on a review of the available literature on ship emission measurements. They were either optical (LIDAR, Differential Optical Absorption Spectroscopy (DOAS), UV camera), combined with model-based estimates of fuel consumption, or based on the so called "sniffer" principle, where SO2 or NOx emission factors are determined from simultaneous measurement of the increase of CO2 and SO2 or NOx concentrations in the plume of the ship compared to the background. The measurements were performed from stations at land, from a boat and from a helicopter. Mobile measurement platforms were found to have important advantages compared to the land-based ones because they allow optimizing the sampling conditions and sampling from ships on the open sea. Although optical methods can provide reliable results it was found that at the state of the art level, the "sniffer" approach is the most convenient technique for determining both SO2 and NOx emission factors remotely. The average random error on the determination of SO2 emission factors comparing two identical instrumental set-ups was 6%. However, it was found that apparently minor differences in the instrumental characteristics, such as response time, could cause significant differences between the emission factors determined. Direct stack measurements showed that about 14% of the fuel sulphur content was not emitted as SO2. This was supported by the remote measurements and is in agreement with the results of other field studies.

Abstract. The evaluation of the rockfall initiation mechanism and the simulation of the runout behavior is an important issue in the prevention and remedial measures for potential rockfall hazards in highway protection, in forest preservation, and especially in urban settlement areas. In most of the studies in the literature, the extent of the rockfall hazard was determined by various techniques basing on the selection of a rockfall source, generally defined as zones of rock bodies having slope angles higher than a certain value, proposed by general practice. In the present study, it was aimed to carry out a rule-based fuzzy analysis on the discontinuity data of andesites in the city of Ankara, Turkey, in order to bring a different and rather systematic approach to determine the source areas for rockfall hazard in an urban settlement, based on the discontinuity and natural slope features. First, to obtain rock source areas (RSAs), data obtained from the field studies were combined with a rule-based fuzzy evaluation, incorporating the altitude difference, the number of discontinuities, the number of wedges and the number of potential slides as the parameters of the fuzzy sets. After processing the outputs of the rule-based fuzzy system and producing the linguistic definitions, it could be possible to obtain potential RSAs. According to the RSA maps, 1.7% of the study area was found to have "high RSA", and 5.8% of the study area was assigned as "medium RSA". Then, potential rockfall hazard map was prepared. At the final stage, based upon the high and medium RSAs, 3.6% of the study area showed "high rockfall potential", while areal distribution of "medium rockfall potential" was found as 7.9%. Both RSA and potential rockfall hazard map were in accordance with the observations performed in the field.

В статье рассмотрена складчатая структура Большого Кавказа в пересечении ущелья р. Ксани, которая все еще недостаточно изучена. Вместе с тем исследование складчатости Большого Кавказа имеет решающее значение для выяснения условий формирования современной складчатой структуры региона. Цель работы. Установление важных особенностей складчатости Большого Кавказа необходимых для выявления причин и механизмов образования его структуры, представляющих еще не до конца решенную проблему. Методика исследований заключалась в весьма детальной зарисовке складчатости региона вдоль ущелья р. Ксани в масштабе 1:1000, что позволяло фиксировать все особенности изучаемой структуры. Составленный при полевых исследованиях разрез был уменьшен до 1:50000 масштаба. Полученный геолого-структурный профиль достаточно полно и точно отражает основные черты структурного строения региона. Результаты. В изученном разрезе установлен ряд новых важных особенностей складчатой структуры, сложенной из мезозойско-кайнозойских толщ. Выяснена многопорядковость и разновозрастность складчатых структур и их субширотное простирание. Структуры первого порядка являются более ранними складками и представлены асимметричными наклоненными на юг сильно сжатыми складками, шириной 1–3 км. Более поздние складки высоких порядков, осложняющие крупные структуры, тоже тесно сжаты, асимметричны и характеризуются падением осей складок на север. Размер их колеблется в широких пределах − от 0.5 м до нескольких десятков метров. Субширотная ориентировка складчатости указывает на то, что она сформировалась в другой обстановке деформации, чем основная северо-западная структура Большого Кавказа. Обсуждение результатов и выводы. Установленный характер складчатости свидетельствует о различном генезисе структур в процессе двухэтапной разноплановой деформации региона. Выяснено, что на первом доверхнеорогенном этапе дислокации (юра-средний миоцен) Кавказ испытал северо-восточное тангенциальное сжатие, вызванное придвиганием и прижатием Черноморско-Закавказского микроконтинента к Большому Кавказу. В результате в регионе была сформирована основная линейная складчатая структура северо-западного простирания, крупные региональные разломы и слоевой кливаж. На втором позднеорогенном этапе деформации (поздний миоцен-антропоген) складчатая структура Большого Кавказа испытывала косое субмеридиональное горизонтальное сжатие. Установлено, что причиной деформации явилось долготное придвигание Ксанского шоля, блока микроконтинента и его внедрение в складчатую структуру Большого Кавказа. Эти дислокации способствовали возникновению в регионе наложенной на раннюю структуру поздней малой складчатости, мелких разрывов скалывания и секущего кливажа субширотного направления. Сделан вывод, что в указанных условиях, разными механизмами дислокации была образована современная сложная складчатая структура южного склона Большого Кавказа в пересечении ущелья р. Ксани в альпийском цикле тектогенеза региона The article considers the folded structure of the Greater Caucasus at the intersection of the gorge of the river Ksani, who is still not well understood. At the same time, the study of the folding of the Greater Caucasus has crucial significance for the determination of the conditions of formation of the modern folded structure of the region. Aim. The establishment of important features of the Greater Caucasus folding essential for identification of the reason and mechanisms of its structure formation, which are not yet fully resolved problem. The research methodology was a very detailed sketching of the folding of the region along the river Ksani gorge in a scale of 1:1000, which allowed to record all the features of the studied structure. The section compiled during field studies was reduced to 1:50 000 scale. The resulting geological and structural profile sufficiently fully and accurately reflects the main features of the structural constructionof the region. Results. In the studied section, a number of new important features of the folded structure of its Mesozoic-Cenozoic strata are established. First of all is revealed, it should be noted that the fold structures are multi-order and of different ages and of sublatitudinal strike. The first-order structures are earlier folds and are represented by asymmetric southwardly declined highly compressed 1-3 km wide folds. Complicating later large structures folds of higher orders are also tightly compressed, asymmetric with the axes dipping to the north. Their sizes vary widely - from 0.5 m to several tens of meters. The sublatitudinal strike of the folding indicates that it formed in a different deformation environment than the main northwestern structure of the Greater Caucasus. Discussion of the results and conclusions. Established character of folding indicates a different genesis of the structures during the two-stage diverse deformation of the region. It was found that at the first suprahorogenic stage of dislocation (Jurassic-Middle Miocene), the Caucasus experienced northeast tangential contraction caused by the pulling and pressing of the Black Sea-Transcaucasian microcontinent to the Greater Caucasus. As a result, the main linear folded structure of the northwestern strike, large regional faults, and layered cleavage were formed in the region. At the second latehorogenic stage of deformation (Late Miocene-Anthropogene), the folded structure of the Greater Caucasus experienced oblique submeridional horizontal compression. It is established that the cause of the deformation was the longitudinal movement of the Ksani schol, a block of the microcontinent and its emplacement into the folded structure of the Greater Caucasus. These dislocations in the region contribute generation of the late low folding superimposed on the early structure, small shear faults, and crosscuting cleavage of the sub-latitudinal direction. It is concluded that, under indicated conditions, by different dislocation mechanisms was formed the modern complex folded structure of the southern slope of the Greater Caucasus at the intersection of the river Ksani gorge during the alpine cycle of regional tectogenesis

The aim of the work is to determine the spatial characteristics of the distribution of the burnt areas of natural zonal landscapes of the Volgograd region with different duration of pyro-factor successions, taking into account the frequency of fires. Based on the previously developed thematic geo-information layers of the steppe fires in the region using overlay operations, the duration of post-pyrogenic periods in the municipal districts of the region was determined, taking into account the total number of fires from 1998–2018. The largest areas covered by fire have a succession duration of 2–3 years and 12–14 years at the beginning of 2019, which corresponds to the fires of 2016–2017 and 2005–2007, respectively. Large areas after the fires of 2001–2002 are located in Ilovlinsky, Kletsky, Pallasovsky and Surovikinsky districts. The largest area of land covered by fire in 2004–2006 is located in the Danilovsky, Ilovlinsky, Olkhovsky and Pallas districts. In our opinion, landscapes affected by fire no more than 5–7 years ago are suitable for the analysis of pyrogenic shifts. These territories are located in Frolovsky, Chernyshkovsky, Kotovsky, Ilovlinsky, Pallasovsky, Leninsky, Kamyshinsky, Staropoltavsky districts. The results will serve as the basis for field studies and the analysis of the spectral characteristics of overgrowing burns from remote sensing materials.
