Problems of Paleohydrology. Nauka, Moscow, 296 pp.
Problems of origin of the hydrosphere, history of formation and de- velopment of underground water, of the World Ocean, lakes, rivers, surface and subsurface ice are under consideration in the book. An attempt of the complete reconstruction of the continental hydro- sphere in the Eastern Europe in Late Pleistocene is made. Methods of paleohydrologic studies are described. Some papers are devoted to paleoclimatic problems of river runoff formation and paleotermic evolution of continental glaciers.

Problems of Paleohydrology, Kalinin, G.P. and Klige, R.K. (Eds.). Nauka, Moscow, 7-20.
The main problems of the global paleohydrology as a science about origin and evolution of the hydrosphere are under consideration. It is a complex of research spheres such as land paleohydrology, paleoceanology, paleocryology, paleolimnology, paleopotamology, paleo- climatology related with sciences studying evolution of the Earth: planetology, geophysics and geochemistry. Some methods of paleohydrologic research are considered.
