| Biographical sketch: | Was born in 1961 in Vladivostok. Graduated from Dept. of Biology and Pedology of Far Eastern state university (Vladivostok) in 1983 and got a speciality the biologist, the teacher of biology and chemistry. Since 1983 I am working in Institute of Biology & Soil Science FEB RAS. |

| Field of expertize: | Vegetation structure and dynamics: Ecological-physiognomic classification, zonation and mapping of vegetation cover of North-East Asia |
||||||
| Field of scientific interests: | Basic scientific interests lie in the field of vegetation science and landscape ecology: structure and dynamics of vegetation cover, classification and mapping of vegetation |
||||||
| Main scientific achievements: | The concept of the life form of vegetation was proposed (Osipov, 1998, 1999). Ecological-physiognomic approaches in classification of vegetation and ecological systems were developed on a basis of the concept (Osipov, 1998, 2000, 2001, 2002). Plant synusiae, communities, aggregations and micro-, meso- and macrocomplexes of vegetation (forest, woodland, shrubbery, tundra, mire, meadow and epilithic vegetation) of taiga-goltsy landscapes of the Bureinskiy highland (the Russian Far East) were classified and described (Osipov, 2001, 2002). The classification of plant life forms for the landscapes was elaborated (Osipov, 2002). The scheme of vegetation zonality for this region was worked out (Osipov, 2002). The vegetation cover of the axial part of the Yam-Alin mountain range (the Bureinskiy highland) and of the western coast of Peter the Great bay (the Sea of Japan basin, the Russian Far East) were mapped at the large scale (Osipov, 1994; Osipov, Verkholat, 2001). High mountain pastures of a reindeer on the Bureinskiy highland were described (Osipov, 1998). First stages of forest-forming process on drag and hydraulic gun polygons in the Bureinskiy highland were defined (Osipov, 2001). |
