Reference excerpt

Vladimir Yemelyanovich Kharin (1957–2013) was a Russian zoologist, ichthyologist, herpetologist, and a specialist in sea snakes.

Life and career Kharin was born November 3, 1957, in Vladivostok. In 1981 he graduated State Far Eastern University. From 1980 to 1984 he worked at the TINRO-Center. In 1984, he was arrested for political reasons and subjected to compulsory psychiatric treatment. From 2003 until the end of his life, he was an employee of the Institute of Marine Biology, Far Eastern Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences. He received his Candidate of Sciences degree in biology from the Academy in 2006. His thesis was titled "Таксономия морских змей (Hydrophiidae sensu lato) мирового океана". Kharin was author and co-author of more than 70 scientific works. He described seven species of fish which were new to science (including Caprodon krasyukovae Kharin, 1983 and Himantolophus borealis Kharin, 1984), and also seven new species of sea snakes.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Vladimir Kharin (zoologist)

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Vladimir Kharin (zoologist) claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In astronomy, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Vladimir Kharin (zoologist) before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Vladimir Kharin (zoologist) ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Vladimir Kharin (zoologist)

In research: Vladimir Kharin (zoologist) appears in astronomy research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Vladimir Kharin (zoologist) in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Vladimir Kharin (zoologist) is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1957 births, 2013 deaths, Far Eastern Federal University alumni, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Vladimir Kharin (zoologist) outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
