  • Chronicles of Nature Calendar, a Long-Term and Large-Scale Multitaxon Database on Phenology
    www.nature.com/scientificdata OPEN Chronicles of nature calendar, DATA DESCRIPTOR a long-term and large-scale multitaxon database on phenology Otso Ovaskainen et al.# We present an extensive, large-scale, long-term and multitaxon database on phenological and climatic variation, involving 506,186 observation dates acquired in 471 localities in Russian Federation, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, Belarus and Kyrgyzstan. The data cover the period 1890–2018, with 96% of the data being from 1960 onwards. The database is rich in plants, birds and climatic events, but also includes insects, amphibians, reptiles and fungi. The database includes multiple events per species, such as the onset days of leaf unfolding and leaf fall for plants, and the days for frst spring and last autumn occurrences for birds. The data were acquired using standardized methods by permanent staf of national parks and nature reserves (87% of the data) and members of a phenological observation network (13% of the data). The database is valuable for exploring how species respond in their phenology to climate change. Large-scale analyses of spatial variation in phenological response can help to better predict the consequences of species and community responses to climate change. Background & Summary Phenological dynamics have been recognised as one of the most reliable bio-indicators of species responses to ongoing warming conditions1. Together with other adaptive mechanisms (e.g. changes in the spatial distribution and physiological adaptations), phenological change is a key mechanism by which plants and animals adapt to a changing world2,3. Many studies have documented that in the northern hemisphere, spring events have become earlier whereas autumn events are occurring later than before, mostly due to rising temperatures4–6.

  • Optimization of Regional Public Transport System: the Case of Perm Krai
    Elena Koncheva, Nikolay Zalesskiy, Pavel Zuzin OPTIMIZATION OF REGIONAL PUBLIC TRANSPORT SYSTEM: THE CASE OF PERM KRAI BASIC RESEARCH PROGRAM WORKING PAPERS SERIES: URBAN AND TRANSPORTATION STUDIES WP BRP 01/URB/2015 This Working Paper is an output of a research project implemented at the National Research University Higher School of Economics (HSE). Any opinions or claims contained in this Working Paper do not necessarily reflect the views of HSE. 1 1 2 2 3 Elena Koncheva , Nikolay Zalesskiy , Pavel Zuzin OPTIMIZATION OF REGIONAL PUBLIC TRANSPORT SYSTEM: THE CASE OF PERM KRAI4 Liberalization of regional public transport market in Russia has led to continuing decline of service quality. One of the main results of the liberalization is the emergence of inefficient spatial structures of regional public transport systems in Russian regions. While the problem of optimization of urban public transport system has been extensively studied, the structure of regional public transport system has been referred less often. The question is whether the problems of spatial structure are common for regional and public transportation systems, and if this is the case, whether the techniques developed for urban public transport planning and management are applicable to regional networks. The analysis of the regional public transport system in Perm Krai has shown that the problems of cities and regions are very similar. On this evidence the proposals were made in order to employ urban practice for the optimization of regional public transport system. The detailed program was developed for Perm Krai which can be later on adapted for other regions. JEL Classification: R42.

K.G. Razumovsky, Zemlyanoy val st., 73, 109004, Moscow, Russia Abstract. The issues of renovation of industrial territories in single industry towns on the basis of industrial parks at the current stage are considered in this paper. The development of a new service industry - industrial parks – has started in Russia less than 10 years ago and gradually acquires a systemic character. However, the gap with the countries of America, Europe and Asia remains very significant. Dozens of new initiatives to create industrial parks of various forms of ownership have appeared in Russia in recent years. However, most areas of Russian industrial parks remain vacant against the backdrop of existing unmet demand for prepared sites and related services for the location of manufacturing plants. One of the main problems of the industry is that the quality of many industrial park projects announced in the country does not meet the requirements of investors - potential residents. 1 Introduction The issues of renovation of industrial territories are highly relevant for many Russian towns. In the conditions of the necessity to search for new drivers for the economic growth of towns, to improve the quality of the urban environment, and to increase the efficiency of the use of urban areas, an important task of finding and elaborating of innovation models for the development of industrial zones arises.

In the Law Code of 1649, Russia definitively bound peasants of all ranks to their official places of residence to facilitate tax collection and provide a workforce for the nobility serving in the army. In the ensuing century and a half, the government introduced new censuses, internal passports, and monetary fines; dispatched investigative commissions; and coerced provincial authorities and residents into surveilling and policing outsiders. Despite these legislative measures and enforcement mechanisms, many thousands of peasants left their localities in search of jobs, opportunities, and places to settle. While many fugitives toiled as barge haulers, factory workers, and agriculturalists, some turned to brigandage and river piracy. Others employed deception or forged passports to concoct fictitious identities, register themselves in villages and towns, and negotiate their status within the existing social structure.
