Abstract

The name of Victor Pavlovich Filosofov is widely known to specialists in the field of geomorphology and cartography. His scientific and professional biography was formed in the regional community. He formed a scientific school, which academician I.P. Gerasimov called “Saratov geomorphological school”. He founded the laboratory of morphometric analysis at the Institute of Geology at Saratov University which served as the basis for the practice of students for almost 30 years, carried out applied studies and conducted theoretical synthesis. Two books by V.P. Filosofov devoted to morphometric analysis of relief for the search of tectonic structures are the best known in scientific community. Although his scientific interests were much broader and included issues of geomorphological mapping, plantation surfaces, genetic classification of plains, origin of the asymmetry of relief, etc.
