Abstract

Owing to efforts of the classics of modern natural science, during the history of its development the qualitative model of the outside world was formed. So, V.I. Vernadsky laid the basis for the doctrine about living matter and marine geochemistry (Vernadsky 1923, 1934), A.P. Vinogradov started to study a chemical composition of microorganisms (Vinogradov 1935), N.M. Knipovich was the pioneer of fishery research of the seas and brackish waters (Knipovich 1938), S.V. Bruevich developed the analytical methods of marine hydrochemical investigations and formulated the fundamentals of hydrochemistry, biohydrochemistry, and chemical dynamics of the seas (Bruevich 1933, 1978), L.A. Zenkevich studied fauna and bioproductivity of sea waters (Zenkevich 1947), A.B. Skopintsev started the investigations of nutrients and organic matter in water reservoirs and streams (Skopintsev 1950), G.G. Vinberg considered the problems of biological productivity formation in the seas (Vinberg 1960).
