Brief Description of Research Activities

Development of theoretical basics and practical recommendation for integrated paleontological, stratigraphical, paleogeographical and paleotectonic research in the Main Permian Basin of sedimentation and other Permian basins of the Globe in order to predict and prospect natural resources and provide regional development and life safety.
