141 KABACHNIK 



Ivanov studied the influence of light and moisture on wood 

 and established the relationships in the distribution and ab- 

 sorption of physiologic radiation in forests under variable con- 

 ditions. He established an original method of investigating 

 photosynthesis, designed new devices— phytoactinometer for 

 studying photosynthesis, phytoatmometer for studying evapo- 

 ration, and others. Ivanov developed the theoretical basis of 

 tapping confiers, which he presented in the work Biological 

 Basis of Utilizing Confiers of U.S.S.R. in the Turpentine Indus- 

 try (1934). He has also carried out researches on the anatomy 

 of wood strains, the systematics of simple plants, investigation 

 of the processes of fermentation and respiration, and the 

 transformation of phosporus in plants.
