Classification and evaluation of geohydrodynamic systems, of groundwater regime - methods of data processing. Methods of calculation of groundwater resources under different conditions of geohydrodynamic systems. Quantitative hydrogeology, groundwater age dating.Special tasks of exploration of groundwater, mineral and thermal water resources. Special methods of groundwater quality and quantity exploration, prospection and remediation of contaminated groundwater.
