    The Effect of Grazing on the Temperature Regime of the Alas

    land Article The Effect of Grazing on the Temperature Regime of the Alas Soils of Central Yakutia Victor Makarov * , Grigory Savvinov , Lyudmila Gavrilieva and Anna Gololobova Scientific Research Institute of Applied Ecology of the North, M.K. Ammosov North-Eastern Federal University, 43 Lenin Prospekt, 677980 Yakutsk, Russia; [email protected] (G.S.); [email protected] (L.G.); [email protected] (A.G.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +7-4112-33-68-51 Received: 7 September 2020; Accepted: 22 September 2020; Published: 1 October 2020 Abstract: There are numerous studies on the effect of grazing on the physical and chemical parameters of soils. However, the impact of grazing on the temperature regime of the alas soils in Central Yakutia is still poorly understood. This paper presents the results of long-term observations of the state of the soil-and-plant cover of thermokarst basins—i.e., alases—located in the Lena-Amga interfluve and actively used as pastureland. Observations of the process of the self-restoration of grass cover and changes in the temperature regime of alas soils were carried out on different variants (with isolation from grazing and without isolation). A significant increase in the average height of the grass stand and its foliage projective cover was observed with a gradual reduction in the number of species when isolated from grazing. Changes in the structure of the alas vegetation cover influence the microclimate of the soil. As a result of livestock grazing, the mean annual soil temperature rises and the amount and depth of the penetration of active temperatures increase.

    Trace Elements and Stable Isotope Diagrams of Late Pleistocene Ice Wedges of Batagaika Yedoma, Central Yakutia

    Trace elements and stable isotope diagrams of Late Pleistocene ice wedges of Batagaika yedoma, Central Yakutia Yu.K.Vasil'chuk1 J.Yu.Vasil'chuk1 N. A. Budantseva1 A.C. Vasil'chuk1 1Department of Geography, Lomonosov Moscow State University, Moscow, Russia, e-mail: [email protected] Abstract The subject of the study is the yedoma ice complex, which locates in the Batagaika depression, Sakha Republic, Russia. The oxygen and hydrogen stable isotope composition, and the content of the dissolved forms of minor and major elements were studied for the first time in ice-wedges of Batagaika depression, which makes the novelty of the study. The isotope composition of the two most saline ice-wedges located in the upper and lower parts of the Batagay depression indicates that they were formed in a close temperature range, the average winter temperature was close to –34/–35 °C, and the average January air temperature was –51/ –53 °C. The ice-wedge with the lowest content of all the trace elements was formed in more severe conditions, the average winter air temperature was close to -36 °C, and the average January air temperature was –54/–55 °C. Keywords: permafrost; ice wedge; oxygen isotope; hydrogen isotope; trace elements; East Siberia, Late Pleistocene The subject of the study is the yedoma, which is found lacustrine or taberal deposits, which are form horizontal in the Batagaika depression (67°34'49" N, 134°46'19" E), wedge 150-200 meters long and intruding into the located 10 km southeast of Batagai settlement (about 17 yedoma deposits and overlaying it.

Chapter 19 Loanwords in Sakha (Yakut), a Turkic language of Siberia* Brigitte Pakendorf and Innokentij N. Novgorodov 1. The language and its speakers Sakha (often referred to as Yakut) is a Turkic language spoken in northeastern Siberia. It is classified as a Northeastern Turkic language together with South Sibe- rian Turkic languages such as Tuvan, Altay, and Khakas. This classification, however, is based primarily on geography, rather than shared linguistic innovations (Schönig 1997: 123; Johanson 1998: 82f); thus, !"erbak (1994: 37–42) does not include Sakha amongst the South Siberian Turkic languages, but considers it a separate branch of Turkic. The closest relative of Sakha is Dolgan, spoken to the northwest of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia).

    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.

I express my sincere gratitude to him for all the guidance, timely advice, pep talks, and support through all the stages of this project and for always being patient while dealing with my ignorance. He has also been very understanding during all my non- academic distractions in the last two years.

    ©Biologiezentrum Linz, Austria; download unter www.zobodat.at Linzer biol. Beitr. 50/2 1635-1655 17.12.2018 Annotated checklist of the family Scathophagidae (Diptera) in Central Europe, with new faunistics data on some species František ŠIFNER A b s t r a c t : Check-list of the family Scathophagidae has been compiled for the following Central European countries, and the following species numbers are given: Austria 69 species, Czech Republic 89 species, Germany 59 species, Hungary 40 species, Poland 67 species, Slovakia 64 species and Switzerland 46 species. Until 2017, 118 species in 42 genera are known from the Central Europe, i.e. approximately 70% of species known from Europe. Scathophaga analis (MEIGEN, 1826) is confirmed as valid species and one new synonymy is established, Scathophaga bohemiae ŠIFNER, 2000 syn. nov. = Scathophaga analis. New faunistic data from the Central Europe and from some other European countries are added, including the following new records: Mirekiana anthrax (SCHINER, 1864) from Montenegro, Cordilura umbrosa (LOEW, 1873) from Turkey, Norellisoma nervosum (MEIGEN, 1826) from Italy, and Scathophaga inquinata (MEIGEN, 1826) from Albania. K e y w o r d s : Diptera, Scathophagidae, taxonomy, faunistics, number of species, Centrale Europe, Palaearctic Region. Introduction Notes to the geological evolution and a geographic characteristics of Central Europe The whole Europe, and the Central Europe especially, passed a complicated geological and climatic changes in the course of evolution. In the first place the Mesozoic and Tertiary mountain-building processes, the Miocene marine transgression period and the continental Quaternaly glaciations during which the Scandinavia developed glacial cover extending into the Central Europe up to Sudeten and Carpathians.
