KOSTENKO Hatalya P.

Kostenko Hatalya Petrovna was born July 17, 1915, Mr.. G. Kharkov. Graduated MGRI (1947).

Candidate of Geological and Mineralogical Sciences (1950), Doctor of Geological and Mineralogical Sciences (1969). Professor of Dynamic Geology, Geological Faculty (1973).

. A member of a specialized council at MSU.

. Research interests: geomorphology, neotectonics, stratigraphy and lithology of Quaternary deposits, dynamic geology of exogenous processes, seismotectonics, the formation of placer deposits of gold, etc.
. In the works, . on the mountain countries, . examined the development of mountain terrain with allocation of the basic laws of the dismemberment of mountain-building areas, the development of folded and discontinuous deformation in orogenic terrain with a detailed analysis of the morphological expression of structural forms; Quaternary sediments of mountain countries, . genesis, . parageneses and polygenesis for orogenic environments, . and the influence of tectonic factors on the processes of drift and sedimentation,
. Has methods for special maps of the relative age of the relief. Established communication geomorphology and climatic zonation of mountain topography with the distribution of genetic types of Quaternary deposits, the dual development of positive and negative forms of different orders of orographic. Proved orientation process of mountain formation on the basis of geomorphological zonation of the relief and uplift of developing shrinking basins, etc.. Her research has practical significance in various sectors of the economy, . such as conducting tracks channel, . roads, . construction of dams and reservoirs in mountainous areas, . as well as development of land for agriculture in arid regions,
. Research on the territory of Central Asia, Yugoslavia, the Caucasus, Siberia, as well as in Cuba and Mexico. Subject doctoral dissertation: "Analysis of relief, Quaternary deposits and neotectonics of southern mountainous Central Asia."
