The analysis of the development of methods for remote sensing of the Earth in the oil and gas prospecting industry in the period from 1979 to 1992 in the Kiev Department of the Institute of Geology and Fossil Fuels Development of the USSR Ministry of Petroleum Industry and the USSR Academy of Sciences (KD IG FFD) is presented. The structure and main scientific and methodological problems that were solved by the team of specialists of the KD IG FFD are given. The main scientific and methodological results of the Kiev department are presented: maps, methodological recommendations, successful results of forecasting oil and gas prospecting structures on the territory of Ukraine and oil and gas provinces of the former USSR. The leading role of KD IG FFD in the training of specialists in the use of aerospace methods in the study of oil and gas bearing regions and, in general, nature management is emphasized.

An analytical review of the state and trends in the development of aerospace Earth research in the Institute of Geological Sciences of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine for the period from 1974 to 2018 is presented. The contribution of the Institute’s scientists in this direction is shown. The fundamentals of the creation of the NAS of Ukraine in the Department of Earth Sciences at the initiative of Academician B.E. Paton of the Scientific Council on the problem of the study of natural resources by remote methods (1987) and the State Institution Scientific Centre for Aerospace Research of the Earth (1992) are considered. Data on the structure of the Center are given. The contribution of the staff of the of the Center to the development of aerospace research in Ukraine is analyzed. It is shown that the prospects for the development of the Center’s scientific research are related to the creation of an unified RSE theory based on modern concepts of Earth sciences, the theory of energy-mass transfer in geosystems, advances in systems theory, and the improvement of models of physical processes that occur on the continent and the shelf. Conceptually, the strategy for the development of research in the CASRE of IGN NAS of Ukraine in the future will consist in the implementation of the main provisions of the development of world society defined by the UN decisions on sustainable, conflict-free development of mankind by providing it with food, drinking water and energy resources.

The paper presents an overview of the current state and prospects for development of oceanographic research that is performed at specialized institutions being the constituents of Odessa Scientific Cluster: The Ukrainian Scientific Center of Ecology of the Sea, the Institute of Marine Biology of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, the Odessa Area Branch of State Hydrographic Service of Ukraine, the Black and Azov Seas Center for Hydrometeorology, the Odessa State Environmental University and the Hydroacoustics Department of the S. I. Subbotin Institute of Geophysics of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. The priority tasks in the field of Oceanology, defined at the First All-Ukrainian Hydrometeorological Congress having being held in Odessa on 22-23 March 2017 are formulated. It is concluded that after Ukraine had lost the Crimean Scientific Oceanographic Cluster, the Odessa Cluster remained the only center in Ukraine which structural units had practical experience in marine research, scientific potential, scientific and methodological developments, an infrastructure for implementation of the tasks of the Maritime Doctrine of Ukraine for the period of up to 2035 as regards the issues related to oceanographic support for the maritime economic activity and sustainable development of Ukraine as a maritime nation. However, a necessary precondition for this is enhancement of the system for organization of oceanographic research at the state level and proper resource support for development of the scientific and technical potential.

Aim. The study of the genus Melanotus from the collection of the Institute of Zoology of the Scientific Center of Zoology and Hydroecology of the National Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Armenia taking into account new taxonomic and chorological data.Material and Methods. Scientific material was identified after desktop processing and preparation of genitalia according to current data on the genus Melanotus.Results and Conclusion. We determined 21 species of the genus Melanotus in the collection from Europe, the Caucasus and Middle Asia, 12 species being recorded from the territory of Armenia. The collection of the genus Мelanotus in the Institute of Zoology includes species endemic to Armenia (M. gedeoni Mardjanyan, 2015, M. platiai Mardjanyan, 2015, M. khnzoriani Mardjanyan, 2015), to Tajikistan (M. fragilloides Dolin, 1988, M. vidualis Gurjeva, 1988) and to Iran (M. dichroides Platia & Gudenzi, 1999, M. richterae Mardjanyan, 2015). Three species, M. castanipes Paykull, 1800, M. fulvus Reitter, 1891 and M. sladkovi Dolin & Atamuradov, 1986 are recorded for the first time for Armenia. M. rustamovi Dolin & Atamuradov, 1987 is the first record for Tajikistan and M. persimilis Dolin & Latifi, 1988 for Turkmenistan.

The purpose of this paper is to describe one program of the National Academy of Sciences’ Committee on Radio Frequencies (“CORF”). This program uses legal means to protect radio astronomy frequencies from radio interference.CORF is composed of eminent scientists from the fields of radio astronomy, space research, remote sensing, meteorology, and wildlife tracking who use radio frequencies in conducting their research. CORF’s primary objective is to limit the level of harmful man-made interference in the bands used by these scientists as much as possible.

This has been a problem in the past, just as the converse has also. Communications barriers, however, are fading away, because at each level, educational, corporate divisional, and in operations, geologists are becoming better geophysicists and geophysicists are becoming better geologists. Their formerly discrete endeavors are becoming better coordinated and their work less separate. Geophysicists have been largely concerned with measurements of earth‐crust phenomena. Incorporation of more geology into such measurements has increased the reliability of the conclusions. As knowledge of the earth increases, the application of geology becomes less of an intuitive matter and thus more precise also. In this epoch in which oil and gas exploration proceeds to progressively greater depths, the distinction between a petroleum geologist and a petroleum geophysicist becomes more difficult to define. The time appears to be approaching when universities aiming graduates at the petroleum industry may graduate petroleum earth scientists, not geologists and geophysicists.

What should be the response of environmental scientists when the world and the Earth appear to be heading toward exceptional crisis? Some scientists have signed up to public assertions that there indeed could be environmental Armageddon ahead (e.g. Union of Concerned Scientists 1992; US National Academy of Sciences and Royal Society of London 1992). Other scientists proclaim that our most valuable resource is not environmental well-being but professional credibility; the 'cry wolf' risk is the key determinant. Others appear to prefer to be scientists pure and simple, eschewing the policy arena, let alone the political scrum. Still others seem to think that warning of prospective crisis, even warning amongst themselves, is out of protocol's court.
