The main effusives of the ancient and present cones of Tyatya Volcano differ in the content of CaO, Al2O3, Sr, K2O and most incoherent elements. Geochemical evidence and also results of numerical modeling suggest that basalts of the initial stage of formation of the volcano were the result of the relatively high degree of melting of mantle source and subsequent deep fractionation in its rise to the surface accompanied with plagioclase accumulation. Considering that the lavas of the ancient cone of Tyatya Volcano are in many respects petrologically close to basic volcanics of the Miocene stage of Kunashir Island formation, the results of the relevant investigations can have implications for understanding the features of the evolution of volcanism in the Kuril island arc on the whole.

Построена теплофизическая модель стационарного состояния ледника в активном кратере Ушковского вулкана. Анализ составляющих баланса массы льда показал повышенный геотермический поток (среднее значение 10 Вт/м2) в пределах вершинного конуса и слабую его изменчивость за последние 40 лет. По измеренной скорости аккумуляции и распределению температуры в снежнофирновой скорости аккумуляции и распределению температуры в снежно-фирновой толще в центре кратера Горшкова предполагается существование значительного поднятия (вложенного малого кратера), перекрытого ледником.
Полученные расчетные формулы помогут оценить параметры критических состояний нестационарных ледяных масс на склонах Ключевского вулкана.

Based on the results of expeditionary studies (July 2021), geochemical features of thermal waters (natural manifestations and borehole waters) discharging near or directly on the Sea of Okhotsk and Pacific coasts of the central part of Iturup Island were considered: Reidovskie, Lososevye, Cape Konakov, Goryachie Klyuchi, Dachnye, water-recreational complex «Vannochki». The springs (with the exception of Lososevye) belong to subneutral Cl(Cl-HCO3)-Na waters with salinity less than 10 g/l. The Lososevye springs are of the weakly acidic HCO3-SO4-Ca-Na type with salinity of 3 g/l. The spontaneous gas is dominated by CO2 (Dachnye and Vannochki), N2 (Reidovskie and Cape Konakov) and CH4 (Goryachie Klyuchi). Against the background of a general extremely low content of microelements,  thermal waters are enriched with boron and lithium. The springs are characterized by small (0.1 l/s) to insignificant (0.02–0.05 l/s) flow rates, while wells drilled nearby uncover horizons of pressurized waters.
