| Dr. NOSIR SHUKUROV PhD, Senior Scientist Laboratory of Geochemistry & Geotechnology of the Institute of Geology & Geophysics, Academy of Sciences of Uzbekistan 49, N.Khodjibaev Street, Tashkent -700041, Uzbekistan Phone: (99871)-262-68-82 Fax: (99871)-262-63-81 E-mail: [email protected] [email protected] www.ingeo.uz. My CV. My Publications. Dear Visitor, welcome to my web page. My name is Nosir Shukurov, from Uzbekistan. My recent research activities focus on Heavy metals in soils Angren-Almalyk mining industrial area (Uzbekistan): Heavy metal concentrations, chemical and mineralogical forms, and their bioavailability. My research interests: Environmental Geochemistry of technogenic dispersion aureoles caused by mining and industrial waste; The forms of heavy metals in contaminated soils and forms of their transformation during interaction with the environment; the transfer of metals from soils to biota; theories and techniques of remediation of metal-contaminated sites; Bio - and hydrogeochemical methods for estimation of natural ecosystems; Occurrence forms and bioavailablility of heavy metals in polluted soils; Interactions of soil microorganisms and heavy metals in contaminated soils in industrial areas, with bioremediation aspects. I have graduated from Faculty of Geology, Tashkent State University, Uzbekistan (in 1993). Specializing mainly in Geochemistry and Mineralogy. My PhD thesis and the related project at the Institute of Geology and Geophysics, Academy of Sciences of Uzbekistan, focused on Environmental Geochemistry of heavy metals in mining and metallurgical areas. After receiving my PhD degree in 2000, I'm continuing my research at the Institute of Geology and Geophysics in Tashkent on a project on forms of heavy metals in soil and plant ashes within the mining and industrial areas of Uzbekistan. In 2001, I have visited the Institute of Soil Science and Soil Geography, University of Bayreuth, as short term research fellow German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD). Where I continued on this project and have a collaboration on "heavy metal partitioning, and storage in polluted soils along a deposition gradient". From August 2003 to July 2004, I joined the Soil ecology laboratory, Faculty of Life Sciences, Bar-Ilan University, as UNESCO/ISRAEL co-sponsored postdoctoral fellow and have had collaboration on impact of heavy metal pollution on soil microorganisms. In January-February 2004 I have visited the Laboratory of Geochemistry of the Faculty of Geology, National Kapodistrian University of Athens as NATO short term research fellow and have a collaboration on heavy metal sequential extraction procedure. 1.03.2005-28.02.2007 I was involved on my INTAS Postdoctoral research fellowship project on "Heavy metals in soils Angren-Almalyk mining industrial area: distribution, forms, bioavailability, and impacts on nematode and microbial biomass, diversity and tolerance".During this fellowship period I have visited Soil Geography and Environmental Geochemistry groups in Mainz University (Germany), and Soil Ecology lab at Bar-Ilan University (Israel) for collaborative studies on Environmental Geochemistry. At present time I'm continuing my investigations on Environmental Geochemistry within the NATO RIG project on Biogeochemical Processes in Metal-Contaminated Soils of Angren-Almalyk Mining Area (Uzbekistan). |
