Sergey Sedov

Sergey Sedov currently works at the Institute of Geology, Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico. His research deals with paleopedology, soil genesis and evolution (including soil development in the extreme natural and anthropgenic environments), geoarchaeology. The preferred method is soil micromorphology. Over more than 30 years of scientific work my interests shifted from soil genesis and weathering processes especially in the boreal zone, to soil evolution related to environmental change, then to paleosols and geoarchaeological research. Now I am returning to pedogenetic topics, studying incipient (but not primitive!) soils of the extreme environments both natural and produced by humans.
