  • Chapter 7. Cities of the Russian North in the Context of Climate Change
    ? chapter seven Cities of the Russian North in the Context of Climate Change Oleg Anisimov and Vasily Kokorev Introduction In addressing Arctic urban sustainability, one has to deal with the com- plex interplay of multiple factors, such as governance and economic development, demography and migration, environmental changes and land use, changes in the ecosystems and their services, and climate change.1 While climate change can be seen as a factor that exacerbates existing vulnerabilities to other stressors, changes in temperatures, precipitation, snow accumulation, river and lake ice, and hydrological conditions also have direct implications for Northern cities. Climate change leads to a reduction in the demand for heating energy, on one hand, and heightens concerns about the fate of the infrastruc- ture built upon thawing permafrost, on the other. Changes in snowfall are particularly important and have direct implications for the urban economy, because, together with heating costs, expenses for snow removal from streets, airport runways, roofs, and ventilation spaces underneath buildings standing on pile foundations built upon perma- frost constitute the bulk of a city’s maintenance budget during the long cold period of the year. Many cities are located in river valleys and are prone to fl oods that lead to enormous economic losses, inju- ries, and in some cases human deaths. The severity of the northern climate has a direct impact on the regional migration of labor. Climate could thus potentially be viewed as an inexhaustible public resource that creates opportunities for sustainable urban development (Simp- 142 | Oleg Anisimov and Vasily Kokorev son 2009). Long-term trends show that climate as a resource is, in fact, becoming more readily available in the Russian North, notwith- standing the general perception that globally climate change is one of the greatest challenges facing humanity in the twenty-fi rst century.

  • “General Government” Sector, According to the SNA Methodology, Has a Redistributive Function
    E3S Web of Conferences 222, 05011 (2020) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/202022205011 DAIC 2020 Problems of Developing Municipalities’ Financial Balances on the Example of the "General Government" Sector Alexey Pasynkov* Institute of Economics, Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Moskovskaya Str., 29, Yekaterinburg, Russia Abstract. The article deals with the problems of developing financial balances at the municipal level, based on the principles of constructing the System of National Accounts. The problems of methodological nature and information content of financial balances are described, possible ways of their solution are proposed. The author's methodology for determining the share of the "General Government" sector in the economy of municipalities has been developed. In the absence of data on value-added areas, proposed to use wage data by types of economic activity. On this basis, we calculated the contribution of local and state budgets in the expenditures of the "General Government" sector in the municipalities of the Khanty- Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug - Yugra. On average, financing of wages in this sector is provided by federal and regional authorities at 60.86% in the region. The smallest value among municipalities is in the city of Pokachi (9.88%), the greatest dependence on the financing of the region and the federation is in the city of Khanty-Mansiysk (85.5%), Surgut (over 65%) and Yugorsk (slightly less than 64%). 1 Introduction In recent years, issues of sustainable development of territories have been considered from different positions: environmental, economic, technological, food, financial, etc. [1-3]. Since the concept of "sustainability" is a diverse phenomenon, in economic terms, research on this topic is multidirectional [4].

    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.

The results of microbiological monitoring of the rivers with the various nature and intensity of anthropogenic load in the Middle Ob basin carried out from 2002 to 2019 is presented. The programme of monitoring included following parameters: the number of bacteria of 5 ecological- trophic groups, gram-staining and morphology of isolated bacteria study, testing of bacterial resistance to antibiotics and phenols. Also coefficients of mineralization and Water quality indexes were calculated. On the base of calculated values, the self-purification potential of the rivers was estimated. Studied rivers were categorized into 5 classes of water quality. In the most rivers on unpolluted and urban area G+ and coccus forms of bacteria were predominant in the microbial community. In the rivers within oilfields the proportion of G– and rod-shaped bacteria was increased considerably. Seasonal and spatial distribution of resistant bacteria over the rivers allows to apply them as markers of the nature and intensity of the anthropogenic load. 1Introduction Traditionally, aquatic microbiology studies the composition of microorganisms in natural waters, their role in biogeochemical processes occurring in waterbodies. This mainly concerns the biodiversity of microorganisms, as well as the physiological processes of their growth and reproduction.
