Biogeochemical Technologies for Managing Pollution in Polar Ecosystems

Dr. Vladimir N. Bashkin is a professor at the Institute of Physicochemical and Biological Problems of Soil Science RAS and the Institute of Natural Gases and Gas Technologies — Gazprom VNIIGAZ LLC in Russia. He graduated from the Biology-Soil department of Moscow State University in 1971, where in 1975 he was awarded a PhD, and in 1987, a Doctor of Science degree. His research areas include environmental risk assessment, biogeochemistry, urban ecology, and trans-boundary pollution. He has authored more than 20 books, including Modern Biogeochemistry and Environmental Chemistry: Asian Lessons (published by Kluwer), and more than 100 papers.
