Biological Problems in Soil Science of RAS,<br />

• junior researcher of Physicochemical<br />

Laboratory (1972-1982)<br />

• researcher of the laboratory of Bioproductivity<br />

of Agrocenoses (1982-1988)<br />

Participants of the workshop use the opportunity to sacrifice this page<br />

for Dr. Luda Korsunskaja, excellent soil physicist and chemist, and<br />

our best friend, who unexpectedly leaved us just few days ago.<br />

She will live in our memories.<br />

Words are not suitable to describe the loss. Our memories will be helping us to imagine our<br />

caring, compassionate, energetic, and witty colleague and friend. Dr. L. P. Korsunskaja<br />

has made an important contribution in understanding and predicting solute transport in<br />

structured soil, which is the most difficult and challenging field in modern soil physics. She<br />

has advanced soil physics by applying fundamental advances and techniques of physical<br />

chemistry. It has been a pleasure to work with Luda as she was most reliable,<br />

knowledgeable, responsible, and helpful partner. The first thing to recall is her kindness,<br />

compassion and smile. This will stay with all of us and will help all of us.<br />
