АКАДЕМИК Н.А. ЛОГАЧЕВ И ЕГО НАУЧНАЯ ШКОЛА: ВКЛАД В ИЗУЧЕНИЕ КАЙНОЗОЙСКОГО КОНТИНЕНТАЛЬНОГО РИФТОГЕНЕЗА

N.A. Florensov and N.A. Logatchev pioneered development of fundamental concepts of the structure and evolution of the Baikal system of rift basins. At the turn to the 21st century, in view of the wide availability of scientific research data on the Cenozoic continental rift zones located in Eurasia, Africa and North America, and taking into account the application of new research methods and options to process and analyze huge amounts of geological and geophysical data, a priority was comprehensive modeling of rifting from its origin to the current period of time. This scientific challenge was addressed by the research team under the leadership of N.A. Logachev.Фундаментальные представления о строении и развитии Байкальской системы рифтовых впадин были заложены в трудах Н.А. Флоренсова и Н.А. Логачева. Высокая степень изученности кайнозойских континентальных рифтовых зон Евразии, Африки и Северной Америки, а также новые методики и возможности обработки и анализа больших массивов геологической и геофизической информации выдвинули на рубеже XX и XXI столетий в качестве приоритетной задачи создание комплексной модели развития рифтогенеза с его зарождения до современности. Решение поставленной задачи осуществлялось в рамках работ научной школы под руководством Н.А. Логачева
