STRUCTURE

Institute comprises three-research laboratory:

laboratory of active impacts

laboratory of geo-space relationships

laboratory of wave processes in the ionosphere.

SHORT BACKGROUND

Results of first studies of near space by artificial satellites during the International Geophysical Year (1957-1958 years) have shown that the net of ground based observatories studying the ionosphere, propagation of radio waves, Earth’s magnetic field, and intensity of solar and galactic cosmic rays has to be extended. In this connection Department of Ionosphere attached to Academy of Science Presidium of Kazach SSR was established in March, 1961. It comprised three magnetic-ionospheric stations located at Almaty, Karaganda, and Novo-Kazalinsk. Department of Ionosphere was reorganized at Institute of Ionosphere on the basis of the order of Kazach SSR Ministry Council (20 May, 1983, N948r) and the decree of Kazach SSR Ministry Council (21 June, 1983, N270) and the decree of Academy of Science Presidium (7 July, 1983).

RESEARCH FIELDS
