Main scientific achievements
  • Summarization and analysis of the outcomes of multiyear research activities and library material, development of new geological-tectonic  model and model of Alpine geodynamic evolution of the Azerbaijan part of Greater Caucasus (2003-2012);
  • Together with specialists from the Caspian states, participation in joint studies of the Caspian region’s tectonic structure and development of 1:2500000 scale International Tectonic Map of the Caspian Sea and its Surroundings (2003-2006);
  • Revised summarization, analysis, interpretation and description of existing and new data on geological-tectonic structure of the Republic, modeling of the regional crust’s Alpine geodynamic evolotuion (2003-2016). Research outcomes are included in multi-volume editions on Azerbaijan geology published in Russian (2005), Azerbaijani (2015) and English (2016) languages. Continuing activities include preparation of the following monographs:“Geology and Mineral Resources of Azerbaijan Republic” in English (2017); “Tectonic Nappes in Structure of Eastern and Southeastern Caucasus”in Russian (2018); “Azerbaijan Tectonics” in English (2018); “Deep Geological Structure of Azerbaijan Republic” in Russian (2019);
  • With the use of the latest information, development and publication of 16 different-scale geological maps (2008-2015). Following 1:500000 scale maps are currently prepared for publishing: “Mineral Map of Azerbaijan Republic”, “Tectonic Map of Azerbaijan Republic”, “Structural Map of the Surface of pre-Jurassic Basement of Azerbaijan Republic” (2018); 
  • Together with specialists from Switzerland and Caucasus states, study of the Caucasus tectonics and Alpine paleotectonics, with development of modern GIS-model of region’s latest tectonics (2011-2013)
  • Study and inventory of the rare natural objects of Azerbaijan (2009-2012); publication of the resulting materials in Azerbaijani, Russian and English languages (2012-2015);
  • Revised summarization, analysis and interpretation of earlier published and new data on the geological-tectonic structure of and mineral resources of Nakhchyvan AR (2013-2016). Resulting materials are included in published and prepared multi-author monographs dedicated to the autonomous republic’s geology, including: “Stratigraphy of Nakhchyvan AR” in Azerbaijani (2015); “Geological Encyclopedia of Nakhchyvan AR” in Azerbaijani (2018); “Geology of Nakhchyvan AR” in English (2018); 1:200000 scale “Geological Map of Nakhchyvan AR”  (2018); 1:200000 scale “Tectonic Map of Nakhchyvan AR”;1:200000 scale “Mineral Map of Nakhchyvan AR” (2018);
  • Revised summarization, analysis and interpretation of existing and new data on geological-tectonic structure, geomorphology, natural resources and natural heritage of western (Lesser Caucasus) part of Azerbaijan (2014-2016). Resulting materials are included in published and prepared multi-author monographs dedicated to the region’s natural resources, natural and humanitarian heritage, including: “Natural Resources of Western Azerbaijan (Ganjabasar and Garabagh)” in English (2016), “Geology-Geographic Atlas of Garabagh” (2016); “Humanitarian and Natural Heritage of Garabagh” in English (2017);
  • Coordination of 21 international and national grant projects in the areas of geology and environmental protection (2000-2016)
  • Participation in 28 international and national projects as national expert, leaders of the work group or project coordinator (1994-2015)
  • As national expert, participation in 70 international conferences, symposiums and workshops dedicated to geology, environmental protection and disaster management (1994-2016)
