Your life and professional journey represent a true commitment to the service of science! For over half a century, you have dedicated yourself to water-balance studies of the unique Lake Baikal and the rivers of its basin, as well as to the study of many issues related to the assessment, use and protection of water resources of the Lake Baikal basin and reservoirs of the Angara cascade.

The results of your 53-year research career have not only broadened the horizons of hydrological knowledge but have also provided a foundation for decision-making aimed at preserving one of the planet's greatest natural treasures.

We wish you robust health, a long life filled with joy and harmony, new achievements in the scientific field, and happiness alongside your loved ones!

With deepest respect and best wishes, your colleagues
