We investigate the impacts of sharp variations in solar and geomagnetic activity (GMA) at high latitudes on the human brain bioelectrical activity by means of the empirical structure function of multi-channel EEG. Ten healthy men ages 19 to 37 took part in the study. EEG was recor- ded daily over the 25 days test period that was marked by C- and M-class solar flares and geomagnetic storm levels in the G2-G3 range.

The article presents the results of the analysis of EEG wave structure formation in children and adolescents aged 7-18 years living under severe conditions of the North. The approaches developed in discrete mathematics (the graph theory, the theory of network flows) were used to assess the time-frequency transformations of EEG patterns. We evaluated conditional probabilities of reciprocal transitions between the components of six frequency bands of E EG (delta, theta, alpha-1, alpha-2, beta-1, beta-2).

The paper presents a comparative analysis of frequency, spatial-temporal parameters and three-dimensional localization of EEG sources that characterize changes of cortical-subcortical interactions processes in autumn and spring periods at northern schoolchildren living in satisfactory and disadvantaged (risk group) conditions of the social (family) environment. Seasonal rearrangement of interaction between wave components of main EEG rhythms was revealed. School students present regressive changes in the EEG pattern temporal organization in spring compared to autumn, and this effect was more expressed at adolescents from group of risk.

The aim of the study was to reveal longitudinal changes in electroencephalogram spectral power and frequency (percentage frequency composition of EEG and alpha peak frequency) patterns in normal children from northern Russia. Fifteen children (9 girls and 6 boys) participated in the study. The resting state (eyes closed) EEGs were recorded yearly (2005-2013) from age 8 to age 16-17 for each child.

Results of physiological and biochemical study including analysis of brain electrical activity dynamics, volumetric and linear parameters of cerebral blood flow, plasma stress hormones levels (adrenaline, noradrenaline, cortisol) and energy metabolism markers (glucose, lactate) at different stages of acute normobaric hypoxia are presented. The correlations are shown between alterations of main cerebral arteries tone and resistivity type vessels, as well as between changes in linear and volumetric cerebral blood flow providing a compensation of the oxygen deficit. Features of EEG dynamics were investigated that characterized CNS regulatory functions and brain electrogenesis disturbance under deep stages of hypoxia.
