Biography

Education

She graduated with honors from the Department of Chemistry of the Far Eastern State University . After graduation, he studied at graduate school at the Department of Physical and Colloid Chemistry, FENU . She defended her thesis on the topic "Electrochemical behavior of oxygen on electrodes and in solutions." In 1985, at the Institute of Evolutionary Morphology and Animal Ecology of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, she defended her thesis for the degree of Doctor of Biological Sciences, dedicated to the bioindication of heavy metal pollution of sea water. She became the first doctor of science with a degree in ecology in the Russian Far East.

Scientific Interests and Works

His research interests include biogeochemistry, marine ecology, environmental pollution and its assessment, ecotoxicology, biological methods for restoring degraded environments and disturbed ecosystems, and environmental education. N.K. Khristoforova created a school of specialists in bioindication and environmental quality monitoring, assessment of its natural and anthropogenic changes, the response of organisms to living conditions. In recent years, while continuing to monitor the state of the marine environment, she and her colleagues have focused on air pollution, using modern methods and focusing on nano- and micro-sized particles of atmospheric suspension.

He is the author of more than 200 scientific papers, including 4 monographs, 2 study guides, 2 teaching aids, a textbook for universities “Fundamentals of Ecology” (1999, 2007, 2013) and 34 publications in journals indexed by Web of Science .
