Scientific interests:

  • Koloskov’s scientific interests cover studying of global electromagnetic resonances of the Earth, different aspects of propagation of radio waves in the near-earth plasma, remote sensing, geospace research in Antarctic and Arctic areas. Since 2002 Dr. Koloskov takes active part in Antarctic investigations. He is a member of Scientific and Technical Council of the National Scientific Center of Ukraine. Dr. Koloskov participated in two wintering at the Ukrainian Antarctic research station Akademik Vernadsky: in 7-th Ukrainian Antarctic expedition (UAE), 2002-2003 as geophysicist, in 10-th UAE, 2005-2006 as geophysicist and science deputy leader of the station. Since February till April 2017 Dr. Koloskov visited United States research station Palmer and Ukrainian Antarctic station Akademik Vernadsky. The aims of his visit are to upgrade the research facilities at both stations and implement new type of observations
