EGU - Vladimir Ivanovich Vernadsky Vladimir Ivanovich Vernadsky was an Ukranian-Russian scientist (1863-1945) whose expertise was remarkably diverse: he studied in the fields of geochemistry, mineralogy, biogeochemistry and cristallography. Vladimir Ivanovich Vernadsky was convinced of the critical usefulness of maintaining close scientific contacts with foreign colleagues and travelled extensively across Europe (Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Austria and Italy), both for research and teaching. Although his achievements have only been recognized lately in Western countries(*) Vladimir Ivanovich Vernadsky is one of the earlier and most prominent European proponent of interdisciplinary research on Biogeosciences. www.copernicus.org /EGU/awards/vladimir_ivanovich_vernadsky.html

Vladimir Ivanovich Vernadsky and his Revolutionary Theory of Biosphere and Noosphere Vladimir Ivanovich Vernadsky, the founder of the concept of the Biosphere and Noosphere (the most progressive contemporary scientific and philosophical worldview), is certainly one of these exceptional thinkers that leave indelible marks in human history and will affect future evolution of humanity for a long time. Vladimir Ivanovich Vernadsky (1863-1945) was the scientist who elaborated the concept of the biosphere and who is now generally acknowledged as the originator of a new paradigm of life studies (Smil, 2002, p. Vernadsky was one of the few high-level scientists that consciously decided to stay in the country to save academic traditions and science. www-ssg.sr.unh.edu /preceptorial/Summaries_2004/Vernadsky_Pap_ITru.html

HYLE 10-1 (2004): Book Review: George S. Levit: Biogeochemistry - Biosphere - Noosphere: The Growth of the Theoretical System of Vladimir Ivanovich Vernadsky Vernadsky’s scientific activity embraced a broad spectrum of problems, from very specific discussions in crystallography or biochemistry to philosophical issues such as the origin and meaning of life, the functional principles of living matter, the interaction between humankind and its environment, the future of human civilization, and so on. Levit convincingly argues that both Vernadsky’s notion of space-time dissymmetry of living matter and his concept of the biosphere as a self-regulating system require general philosophical presuppositions that do not belong to the area of pure science. Stressing the integrative character of Vernadsky’s doctrine, Levit demonstrates that it was elaborated on the basis of many specific studies in the particular sciences such that it can be qualified as a set of empirical generalizations. www.hyle.org /journal/issues/10-1/rev_rezvykh.htm

[No title] Vernadsky studied the rate of propagation of life in the biosphere, developed a mathematical method for determining the pressure of different types of living matter, determined cycles ( chemical elements passing through living matter of the biosphere that is, he clarified the main features of the structure and life of the biosphere. Vernadsky began his activity as a soil scientist, being a student, in the eighties of the last century he participated in expeditions of his teacher Dokuchaev, the founder of present-day soil science.

about-art-isi.bib The hypothesis of a famous Russian scientist Vladimir Vernadsky suggested the possibility of evolutionary transformation of human-beings into autotrophic organisms capable of synthesizing nutritional substances from non-organic chemical elements, which would imply immense social consequences. On author's opinion Vernadsky despite all his respect for Darwin and Wallace considered the theory of natural selection simply as general evolutionary theory and didn't appreciate the population thinking which is the core of the concept. After the formalisation of the Vernadsky concept of the biosphere, the main principle, the co-evolution of man and the biosphere, is suggested for consideration. vernadsky.lib.ru /biblio/database/about-art-isi.bib

Vladimir Ivanovich Vernadsky Vernadsky showed the unity of all life in space, and that it operated on a daily scale as a cosmic phenomenon and geological force. Vernadsky was the original pioneer of biospherics, a science before its time. 10) Under Vernadsky's definition, the Biosphere is the single greatest geologic force on earth, moving, processing, and recycling several billion tons of mass a year. www.planetecologie.org /ENCYCLOPEDIE/Pionniers/vernadsky.htm

Science Fair Projects - Biogeochemistry Vladimir Vernadsky, a Russian scientist in the tradition of Mendeleev, is credited with founding the science of biogeochemistry. Vernadsky distinguished three spheres in the universe domain, where a sphere is a concept similar to the Riemman concept of a space-phase. He observed that each sphere has its own laws of evolution, and that the higher spheres modify and dominate the lowers. www.all-science-fair-projects.com /science_fair_projects_encyclopedia/Biogeochemistry

Biochemistry - Biosphere - Noosphere: The Growth of the Theoretical System of Vladimir Ivanovich Vernadsky / Levit, George S. / VWB-Verlag Vladimir Ivanovich Vernadsky (1863-1945) is one of greatest Russian natural scientists. Besides, Vernadsky's theory of the biosphere is compared with biosphere theories of James Lovelock and Pierre Teilhard de Chardin in order to identify the place which Vernadsky's theory occupies between other global theories of the 20th century. The book reconstructs and structures Vernadsky's theoretical heritage as well as shows that Vernadsky was on the way of creating a universal theoretical system representing the total natural, intellectual and social processes on Earth as one single regular planetary process. www.vwb-verlag.com /Katalog/m351.html

Future Positive : Welcome A century later the Russian philosopher Y. Korolenko told his nephew, Vladimir Ivanovich Vernadsky, that the Earth was a live being, and though it is not clear that Vernadsky believed this himself, his studies of Earth took a very different view of life than did those of other scientists. Vernadsky called life "a disperse of rock," because he saw life as a chemical process transforming rock into highly active living matter and back, breaking it up, and moving it about in an endless cyclical process. Vernadsky's view is presented in this book, as we say life is rock rearranging itself -- like music come alive -- packaging itself as cells, speeding its chemical changes with enzymes, turning cosmic radiation into its own forms of energy, transforming itself into ever-evolving creatures and back into rock. futurepositive.synearth.net /2002/04/17

complexity.doc No analysis on what this sphere contained until 1926 when Vladimir Ivanovich Vernadsky defined the boundaries of the biosphere to contain all the hydrosphere, the troposphere to the height of about 30km, and the upper part of the Earth’s crust to a depth of two or three kilometres. Vernadsky’s biosphere is not a static life envelope, but an open system having existed since the very beginning of the Earth’s history. According to Vernadsky, the state we find the planet in today is a product of long and complex evolution of the living substance. www.srcf.ucam.org /~sjf39/sd/complexity.doc

Mondialogo, Worldwide Team Pages Great Russian scientist Vladimir Ivanovich Vernadsky was the first to realize the necessity for quite a new approach to the biosphere. By ‘noosphere’ Vernadsky meant the envelope of mind that was to supersede the biosphere, the envelope of life.it is Vernadsky’s concept of the biosphere that we accept today. V.I.

Vladimir Ivanovich Vernadsky - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The word biosphere was invented by Austrian geologist Eduard Suess, whom Vernadsky had met in 1911. Vernadsky is considered one of the precursors of ecology. This is in contrast to Darwin's theory of Natural selection, which looks at each individual species, rather than at its relationship to a subsuming principle. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Vladimir_I._Vernadsky

magazine So that is rather short, but highly productive the Crimean fragment from the large life of the academician Vladimir Ivanovich Vernadsky, the founder of geochemistry, radiology and biochemistry, of the teaching about biosphere, noosphere, tireless seeker for mineral resources, the professor and the rector of the Tavrida University in Simferopol. In memory of the scientific deserts of the academician in Crimea one of the mud volcanoes in the Kerch peninsula is named after V.I.Vernadsky and in 1969 after the representation made by the authors of his article, it was announced the reserve monument of nature. Working there the academician was doing profound researches of the Earth and at the same time being a true scientist he came forward for the peaceful use of the results of the descendants - our contemporaries - to the fact. www.ccssu.crimea.ua /tnu/magazine/pontida/1999/vernadsky.htm

Locusts_story A few months later Vladimir Ivanovich Vernadsky, a young privat-docent of mineralogy at Moscow University, read that brief description, turned the page, returned to it, and made a few notes on a card. But to Vernadsky the swarming locusts also exemplified life's ability to accelerate the rate of planetary change. He was aware of the possible errors inherent in such estimates, but the graphic description of the huge high-flying swarm led him to a great scientific synthesis. ic.ucsc.edu /~wxcheng/envs23/lecture11/Locusts_story.htm
