  • Some Data on Zoophilic Flies of Siberia and the Russian Far East
    Ukrainian Journal of Ecology Ukrainian Journal of Ecology, 2021, 11(6), 100-104, doi: 10.15421/2021_230 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Some data on zoophilic flies of Siberia and the Russian Far Ukrainian Journal of Ecology,2021, 11(4),,doi: 10.15421/2021_ East E.I. Sivkova All-Russian Scientific Research Institute of Veterinary Entomology and Arachnology-Branch of Federal State Institution Federal Research Centre Tyumen Scientific Centre of Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 2 Institutskaya St, Tyumen 641025, Russia *Corresponding author E-mail: [email protected] Received: 23.07.2021. Accepted: 09.08.2021. In the vast territories of Siberia and the Russian Far East that include various landscapes and climatic zones of the country, flies play an important role as they are constantly present in the life of humans and animals. Flies belong to the Order Diptera, comprising of two-winged flies, the suborder Cyclorrapha (circular-seamed flies). Flies are vectors of many infectious and invasive diseases (they spread pathogens of microorganisms, protozoa, and fungi) and can also cause independent diseases in the larval phase. In this genus case, the flesh-fly family (Sarcophagidae), Wohlfahrtia magnifica genus, Schin.,1862, is a classic example of flies with a free- living pattern to a parasitic lifestyle. Species specificity of flies is weakly expressed, though they give the most significant preference to cattle. Traditional fly control methods include preventive and exterminating measures. Preventive steps are targeted at the elimination of potential fly breeding places by practicing routine sanitation. The advantage of preventive measures is their environmental friendliness. However, they do not significantly reduce the number of flies.

A. ORLOVA and V. A. PANYCHEV United Institute of Geology, Geophysics and Mineralogy, Universitetsky pr., 3, Novosibirsk 90, 630090 Russia ABSTRACT. Variable 14C ages of paleosol organic matter (OM) cause difficulties in interpreting 14C data. We attempt to determine the reliability of OM 14C dates by examining different carbon-containing materials from soil horizons and paleosol fractions. INTRODUCTION Since the first 14C age determination of soil organic matter (OM) (Tamm and Ostlund 1960), the problems of 14C data interpretation have been widely discussed (Arslanov 1987; Arslanov et al. 1970; Arslanov and Kozyreva 1976; Gerasimov and Chichagova 1971; Zavelskiy 1975; Chichagova 1985; Scharpenseel 1971; Campbell et al. 1967; Costin and Polach 1969; Geyh, Bensler and Roeschman 1971; Polach and Costin 1971; Bowler and Polach 1971). These problems involve soil OM biodynamics in various landscape/climatic areas and soil types. Unlike wood and peat, where each annual tree ring and peat layer "conserves" the particular 14C content of the moment of growth, soil horizons are characterized by constant replacement of OM along the profile, which leads to redistribution of 14C ratios in different carbon-containing materials and soil fractions.

Ninety-six species of nine genera, comprising approximately 60% of the fauna in Siberia and the Far East, are recorded. The spatial pattern formation in the blackfly zonal structures is revealed. There are significant differences between blackfly populations in highland and lowland landscapes. In the highlands, the communities confined to different altitudinal belts are formed. In the lowland of the basin, three community zonal types—steppe, taiga–forest, and tundra—are identified. Significant climatic factors affecting the heterogeneity of the blackflies in the Ob-Irtysh River basin have been estimated.

  • The Influence of State-Confessional Policies on the Activities of Religious Communities in Western Siberia in the 1970S and Early 1980S
    Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research, volume 364 International Conference on Sustainable Development of Cross-Border Regions: Economic, Social and Security Challenges (ICSDCBR 2019) The influence of state-confessional policies on the activities of religious communities in Western Siberia in the 1970s and early 1980s N S Dvoryanchikova1* 1 Altai State University, 61 Lenina prosp., Barnaul Russia E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. The article is devoted to the study of the activities and position of religious organizations in the Novosibirsk region in the 1970s and early 1980s. In the period under review, there are changes in the state-confessional policy in the USSR in general and in the Novosibirsk region in particular. At this stage, the process of registration of organizations of the Russian Orthodox Church, Gospel Сhristian Baptists (adherents of the All-Union Council), Catholic, Lutheran communities was occurring. These registrations of Protestant communities were the first ones after the mass transfer of “sectarian” religious communities throughout the USSR to an illegal situation. In addition, the authorities tried to subordinate to control those religious organizations (the GCB Council of the Churches) which did not agree to register, allowing them to hold services in the same place and at the same time. The article shows the features of the situation with the Christian and Muslim communities, focusing on the registration process, economic, demographic changes within communities.
