He participated in more than 30 scientific voyages on large sea vessels, as well as in a number of coastal marine expeditions. Along with the ability to quickly solve scientific and technical problems of various levels of complexity, Sergei Georgievich has excellent organizational skills. These qualities put him in the leadership of the Institute's annual expeditions to the seas of the Russian Arctic (Karskoye and Laptevs), for which he spares neither effort nor time.
Poyarkov has published more than 50 scientific articles in publications included in the RSCI, WoS and Scopus databases, in which he proved himself to be a deep specialist who perfectly understands the Ocean.
