Across the years this event has gained the reputation of the most ambitious one, providing the biggest grounds for discussion and exhibition dedicated to energy in the Asian-Pacifi c Region. Traditionally the attention of a wide experts’ community and representatives both of public and private sectors, of scholars from all over the world is focused on this event. In the context of rapid growth of Russian-Indonesian relations over the recent years, incremental growth of mutual sales turnover and the increasingly larger role that Indonesia plays in the global economy, the main purpose of the exhibition in addition to demonstrating state-of-the-art technology in electric energy and renewable energy sectors is to attract investment and unlock the foreign trade potential of both countries. I am absolutely sure that despite the great distance between our two countries and all the differences of our cultures and traditions, our common aspiration is to jointly search for new ways of effi ciency and competitiveness improvement, to promote the development of new markets in order of assuring global energy safety. I wish you productive work and successful achieve- ment of the established goals! Minister of Energy of the Russian Federation A.

    How to use the Atlas The Atlas has two map sections The Main Section shows the location of Russia’s intact forest landscapes. The Thematic Section shows their tree species composition in two different ways. The legend is placed at the beginning of each set of maps. If you are looking for an area near a town or village Go to the Index on page 153 and find the alphabetical list of settlements by English name. The Cyrillic name is also given along with the map page number and coordinates (latitude and longitude) where it can be found. Capitals of regions and districts (raiony) are listed along with many other settlements, but only in the vicinity of intact forest landscapes. The reader should not expect to see a city like Moscow listed. Villages that are insufficiently known or very small are not listed and appear on the map only as nameless dots. If you are looking for an administrative region Go to the Index on page 185 and find the list of administrative regions. The numbers refer to the map on the inside back cover. Having found the region on this map, the reader will know which index map to use to search further. If you are looking for the big picture Go to the overview map on page 35. This map shows all of Russia’s Intact Forest Landscapes, along with the borders and Roman numerals of the five index maps.

  • Capacitive Power Taking Off from High Voltage Transmission Lines
    2018 International Theoretical and Practical Conference on Alternative and Smart Energy (TPCASE 2018) ISBN: 978-1-60595-617-6 Capacitive Power Taking Off From High Voltage Transmission Lines Marina Rozhina, Nadezhda Buryanina, Yury Korolyuk and Anna-Mariia Timofeeva ABSTRACT A complex infrastructure and transport scheme of fuel supply, long and busy power lines, extreme continental climate with temperature changes from -50 to +45 ºС - all these factors have a negative impact on the quality of electricity. There is high probability of accidents due to the unreliability of electrical networks. This paper describes a method of power supply to remote consumers of "low" power without the construction of high-power transformer substations and the use of diesel generators. INTRODUCTION The Russian Federation is the largest country in the world by area. It occupies a huge area of 17.1 million square kilometers. Most of its territory is concentrated in the North. The energy problems of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) are due to its territory and non-settlement. Occupying the sixth part of Russian territory, the population of Yakutia is only about one million. Yakutia is divided into 4 energy areas—Central, Western, South Yakutian and Northern. More than 900 thousand people live in these four energy areas. The research considers the Northern energy area, which occupies 2/3 of the territory of the whole Yakutia (2.2 million square kilometers). The total installed capacity is 184.9 MW (electricity) and 92.4 Gcal/h (heat). The main sources of heat and electricity are diesel power plants, but in addition, 19 solar power plants ____________ Marina Rozhina, North-Eastern Federal University, 808 Office, 50 Kulakovskogo Street, Yakutsk, Russia Nadezhda Buryanina, Yury Korolyuk, Anna-Mariia Timofeeva, Chukotka branch of North- Eastern Federal University, 4-106 Office, 3 Studencheskaya Street, Anadyr, Russia 253 with a total capacity of 1.6 MW operatein the Northern part of Yakutia, which are the largest in the Arctic, and 2 wind power plants (290 kW).

Wildfires, as a key disturbance in forest ecosystems, are shaping the world’s boreal landscapes. Changes in fire regimes are closely linked to a wide array of environmental factors, such as vegetation composition, climate 15 change, and human activity. Arctic and boreal regions and, in particular, Siberian boreal forests are experiencing rising air and ground temperatures with the subsequent degradation of permafrost soils, leading to shifts in tree cover and species composition. Compared to the boreal zones of North America or Europe, little is known about how such environmental changes might influence long-term fire regimes in Russia. The larch-dominated eastern Siberian deciduous boreal forests differ markedly from the composition of other boreal forests, yet data about past 20 fire regimes remain sparse.

Cherdyntseva1,2 Cancer Research Institute, Tomsk National Research Medical Center, Russian Academy of Sciences, Tomsk, Russia1 Tomsk State University, Tomsk, Russia2 We investigated the effect of 3 TGF-β-associated signaling components (TGF-β1, TGF-βR1, TGF-βR2) and ERα on the response to adjuvant tamoxifen treatment in 122 estrogen positive breast cancer patients. Our data suggest that the gene and protein expression of TGF-βR1 as well as ESR1 rs2228480 and the distribution pattern of ERα expression may play a significant role in the development of tamoxifen resistance/sensitive in breast cancer patients. Keywords: breast cancer, tamoxifen resistance, estrogen receptor, TGF-β-associated proteins, prognosis markers. Introduction Crosstalk between ERα and TGF-β signaling may be critical in the development of tamoxifen resistance/sensitive in breast cancer. It is well known that ERα blocks TGF-β pathway by direct interactions with Smads components [1]. In turn to, TGF-β could act to restrict ERα-mediated proliferation [2]. While evidence is accruing that TGF-β-associated proteins is implicated in the tamoxifen resistance, there have been no integrated studies evaluating their prognostic value in estrogen positive breast cancer patients.

  • Seismic Calibration and Discrimination in Northeast Russia
    SEISMIC CALIBRATION AND DISCRIMINATION IN NORTHEAST RUSSIA Kevin Mackey and Kazuya Fujita Michigan State University Sponsored by Defense Threat Reduction Agency Contract No. DTRA01-98-C-0168 ABSTRACT In an effort to obtain ground truth (GT) classifications in support of nuclear explosion monitoring for continental regions of northeastern Russia, we relocated and assigned GT classifications to 118 seismic events reported in the International Seismological Centre (ISC) supplemented with previously unavailable local data. Of the relocated events, 26 events are classified as GT10. From these events, consistent patterns of residuals, essentially source-specific station corrections (SSSC’s), show upper mantle velocities are elevated under the Siberian platform and slower below the northern Sea of Okhotsk. To further improve calibration capabilities in northeast Russia, we have been analyzing data from a small network of digital seismic stations deployed in the Magadan region. The stations are located close to areas of both tectonic seismicity and active mining, thus record signals from both. We have been undertaking routine phase time picking and hypocenter determination of both local and near regional seismic events and confirmed/suspected mine explosions. Using waveforms of both tectonic events and mine blasts, we have begun the process of explosion discrimination using amplitude ratios of various Lg frequencies. Preliminary results indicate that the ratio Lg(4-8Hz)/Lg(0.75-1.5Hz) using peak amplitudes may not be sufficient to discriminate mining explosions from earthquakes in northeast Russia. Additional, more comprehensive research is underway. We have undertaken efforts to acquire improved ground truth data for both earthquakes and explosions. In January 2001 two moderate earthquakes occurred approximately 100 km west of Magadan.
