Background. Triassic deposits of the Eastern Ciscaucasia belong to upper part transient zone, which is considered promising for hydrocarbon exploration. The presence numerous deposits, as well non-commercial flows in boreholes, indicate existence petroleum systems this section. However, issues related sources hydrocarbons still remain unresolved. Aim. To identify and study possible source rocks...

The use of digital information in geological fields is becoming very important. Thus, informatization in geological surveys should not stagnate as a result of the level of data accumulation. The integration and sharing of distributed, multi-source, heterogeneous geological information is an open problem in geological domains. Applications and services use geological spatial data with many featu...

Because the spent fuel removed from a nuclear reactor is highly radioactive, it must be disposed of in a way that protects the environment from contamination and living organisms from exposure. Radioactive isotopes can be spread by air or water, and can also become part of the food chain. While the radioactivity of spent fuel drops with time, according to a 1995 National Academy of Sciences stu...
