About Authors

Avtandil A. Kordzadze – Doctor of Sciences in Physics and Mathematics, professor. The head of Department of Mathematical Modelling of Geophysical Processes in the Sea and atmosphere at the Institute of Geophysics   of  Iv. Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University. In 1967 Graduated from Department of Mechanics and Mathematics of   Novosibirsk State University.  In 1967-1984 he worked at Computing Center of Siberian Branch of the Academy of   Sciences of USSR (Novosibirsk, Akademgorodok). In 1984 he was translated to Moscow on a post of the Senior   Scientist at the Department of Computing Mathematics (now Institute of Numerical Mathematics) of the Academy of   Sciences of the USSR under the invitation of  academician G. I. Marchuk.  In 1989 A. Kordzadze  has been translated    in the Institute of Geophysics (Tbilisi, Georgia), where  he has based Department of sea dynamics (now,  Department of Mathematical Modelling of Geophysical Processes in the Sea and atmosphere). For many years he   conducted pedagogical activity In Novosibirsk State University, Moscow’s physical-technical Institute and Iv. Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University. Scientific activity of prof. A. Kordzadze is connected with  mathematical  substantiation of problems of ocean dynamics, mathematical modelling of hydrothermodynamic and ecological   processes in the Black Sea  and  Atmosphere. in these spheres he has about 130   scientific articles.

 

Demuri I. Demetrashvili - Doctor of Sciences in Physics and Mathematics. Major Scientist of Department of Mathematical Modelling of Geophysical Processes in the Sea and atmosphere at the Institute of Geophysics  of  Iv. Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University. In 1971 he Graduated from Department of Physics of Iv. Javakhishvili  Tbilisi  State University (specialty “Theoretical Physics”).  In 1974-1977 he was a post-gratitude student at the  Computing  Center of Siberian Branch of the Academy of Sciences of USSR (Novosibirsk, Akademgorodok). In 1992-1995  D. Demetrashvili worked as  deputy director of the republican Center of Environmental Monitoring of the Ministry of Environmental  Protection of Georgia.
