Sergei V. Krilov.
Krylov (Krilov), Sergei V., D. Geog. S. Born in 1931. Russian geographer.
Specialist in geophysics, and in seismic methods of research on the earth’s crust
and the earth’s mantle. Corresponding member of the Geology, Geophysics,
Geochemistry and Mining Department and of the Siberian Department since
December 1987. He graduated from the Leningrad Mining Institute in 1955 and
began working at a geological prospecting organization. He joined the Geology and
Geophysics Institute of the Siberian Department in 1961 and served in turn as a
junior and senior researcher, and head of the Laboratory of Deep Seismic Research.
In 1987 he was named head of the Department of Geophysics and shortly thereafter,
Director of the institute itself. He has been a professor at the Novosibirsk
University since 1979. (LDA 89-11378.)
The institute has 13 laboratories:
(1.) the Deep Seismic Research Laboratory under corresponding member Sergei
V. Krilov who is also heading a study of the development of scientific bases and
methods of regional multiwave earth research for improving the forecasting of
geological upheavals of the lithosphere;
(2.) the Polar Experimental Laboratory under Iurii N. Antonov, D. Tech. S. who
also is heading studies on physical and mathematical modeling, methods and
technical means for electromagnetic research of the earth’s crust and exploring for
minerals, the paleomagnetism of the Mesozoic and Cenozoic formations of Siberia
and Kazakstan;
(3.) the Multiwave Seismic Laboratory under Konstantin A. Lebedev, C. Tech. S.
who is leading a group studying the theory and methods of multiwave seismic
prospecting, and the physical foundations for direct detection of mineral deposits;
(4.) the Seismic Modeling Laboratory under Leonid D. Gik, D. Tech. S. R. D.
Ushakov, C. Tech. S. and L. D. Gik, D. Tech. S., of the laboratory are leading a
study of the modeling of the structural problems of seismology;
(5.) the Seismic Firing Problems Laboratory under Georgii M. Mitrofanov, C.
PM. S.; S. V. Gol’din, D. PM. S. is heading a team on theory and algorithms of
solving the direct and ensuing problems of seismic prospecting;
(6.) the Natural Geophysical Poles Laboratory under Al'bert (Albert) D.
Duchkov, C. Tech. S. who is also heading a study of spatial and time variations of
geophysical fields of the regions of Siberia;
(7.) the Regional Geodynamics Laboratory under Sergei A. Tichkov, C. GM. S.
who is heading work on mechanisms of the formation of the tectonic of the
lithosphere of Siberia;
(8.) the Dynamics of the Problem of Seismology Laboratory under Gennadii
M. Tsibul’chik, D. PM. S.--K. D. Klem-Musatov, D. PM. S. and G. M.
