In this work we present the results of spore and pollen analysis of forest soils from the Zvenigorod biological station of Moscow State University (Moscow Region, Russia). A comparative analysis of forest soils formed on the site of historical fields of the XVIII–XIX centuries and beyond showed that a specific complex of pollen and spores remains in the residual arable horizons, characteristic only of soils that have passed through the stages of plowing and fallow. It includes pollen from cultivated cereals and arable weeds (buckwheat, cornflower blue), spores of the mace-shaped plaunus (Lycopodium clavatum), as well as spores of the mosses Riccia glauca and Anthoceros spp. The latter are exclusive indicators of fallows, since they are practically not found in other habitats. The identified pollen indicators can be used in landscape and archaeological research to interpret the data of spore-pollen analysis of cultural layers, buried soils, gully-ravine sediments. They can also be used to define the boundaries of ancient fields under modern vegetation.

The paper provides the results of seven-year study of downy mildew on Skadovsky Zvenigorod Biological Station of Moscow State University (ZBS MSU, Moscow Region). A total of 29 species of Peronosporales (Oomycota) were revealed during the study. An annotated list of species is presented, among them Peronospora anemones is recorded for the first time for Russia, P. chelidonii and P. stachydis are new for the European part of Russia, 8 species are new for the Moscow Region.

The paper presents methods and results of experimental studies of the dynamic of the temperature regime, the thickness of active layer and rock heave deformation over a five-year field observations period, as well as the results of predictive modeling of these processes on the Moscow State University Zvenigorod Biological station. The results of comparison of field data with the calculated characteristics based on numerical modelling of heave process are presents.

The geological structure of two freshwater lakes (the Verkhneye and the Vodoprovodnoye) located near the White sea biological Station of the Moscow State University (the Kandalaksha Bay of the White sea) is considered for the first time according to the GPR data. The morphology of the top of the Archean basement, the structure of the Quaternary sedimentary cover and bottom relief were studied. Shallow marine sediments overlying the rocks of the Archean and a sequence of lacustrine-marsh sediments were identified using the drilling data in the Quaternary cover. Structural schemes were constructed for the main reflecting horizons, while isopach schemes were generated on the basis of the main sequences. The values of electrical resistivity and absorption coefficient are calculated and the possibilities of their use for the delineation of GPR facies are considered.
