Diatomic Compounds in the Soils of Bee-Farm and Nearby Territories in Samarskaya Oblast
BIO Web of Conferences 27, 00036 (2020) https://doi.org/10.1051/bioconf/20202700036 FIES 2020 Diatomic compounds in the soils of bee-farm and nearby territories in Samarskaya oblast N.Ye. Zemskova1,*, A.I. Fazlutdinova2, V.N. Sattarov2 and L.M. Safiullinа2 1Samara State Agrarian University, Ust-Kinelskiy, Samarskaya oblast, 446442, Russia 2Bashkir State Pedagogical University n.a. M. Akmulla, Ufa, 450008, Russia Abstract. This article sheds light on the role diatomic algae in soils play in the assessment of bee farm and nearby territories in four soil and landscape zones in Samarskaya Oblast. The community of diatomic algae is characterized by low species diversity, of which 23 taxons were found. The most often found species are represented by Hantzschia amphioxys (Ehrenberg) Grunow in Cleve & Grunow and Luticola mutica (Kützing) D.G.Mann in Round et al. The maximum of phyla (18) were found in the buffer (transient) zone; in the wooded steppe zone, 11 species were recorded; in the steppe – 2 species, and in the dry steppe zone no species of diatomic algae were found. The qualitative and quantitative characteristics of diatomic algae communities in various biotopes depend on the natural and climate features of a territory and the degree of the anthropogenic impact on the soil and vegetation, which is proved by the fact that high species wealth signifies that the ecosystem is stable and resilient to the changing conditions in the environment, while poor algal flora is less resilient due to the lower degree of diversity. 1 Introduction Diatomic algae play a special role in habitats with extreme conditions [6, 7]. -

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. -
Spiritual and Moral Foundations of Craft Profession Training
Eurasian Journal of Analytical Chemistry, 2018, 13(1b), em78 ISSN:1306-3057 OPEN ACCESS Research Paper https://doi.org/10.29333/ejac/102243 Spiritual and Moral Foundations of Craft Profession Training Nikolay K. Chapaev 1, Andrei V. Efanov 1*, Ekaterina Yu. Bychkova 1, Evgenij M. Dorozhkin 1, 1 Olga B. Akimova 1 Russian State Vocational Pedagogical University, Ekaterinburg, RUSSIA Received 24 August 2018 ▪ Revised 25 November 2018 ▪ Accepted 7 December 2018 ABSTRACT The relevance of the problem under consideration stemmed from the need of revival of craft education system in Russia which focuses on training personnel for small handicraft enterprises, and it is also very important to identify, to preserve and to adapt it to the modern realities of pedagogical experience which was gained by the vocational education system in the past. The purpose of the article is to substantiate the need for development of spiritual, moral, organizational and pedagogical foundations of craft vocational education development in Russia theoretically and methodologically. The central approach to the investigation of this problem is the study and generalization of pedagogical experience which makes it possible to substantiate the tendencies of formation of a new type of vocational education in Russia. The result of the study was the substantiation of the key qualities of a master craftsman as a creative thinker and craft labour as a man-making system of knowledge and practical experience forming “multidimensional human integrity”. The statement that modern craft education should take into account the productive and transforming essence of a person as fully as possible, and thus, it should be acmeologically oriented can be considered the key conclusion. -

Heterogeneity in Demand and Oprimal Price Conditioning for Local Rail Transportation
Heterogeneity in Demand and Oprimal Price Conditioning for Local Rail Transportation Evgeniy M. Ozhegov∗ National Research University Higher School of Economics. Research Group for Applied Markets and Enterprises Studies. Research fellow [email protected] Alina Ozhegova National Research University Higher School of Economics. Research Group for Applied Markets and Enterprises Studies. Junior research fellow [email protected] May 31, 2019 Abstract This paper describes the results of research project on optimal pricing for LLC "Perm Local Rail Company". In this study we propose a regression tree based approach for estimation of demand function for local rail tickets considering high degree of demand heterogeneity by various trip directions and the goals of travel. Employing detailed data on ticket sales for 5 years we estimate the parameters of demand function and reveal the significant variation in price elasticity of demand. While in average the demand is elastic by price, near a quarter of trips is characterized by weakly elastic demand. Lower elasticity of demand is correlated with lower degree of competition with other transport and inflexible frequency of travel. I. Introduction Local rail transportation in Russia is an important part of public transport system, as it is often the only way for people to move between locations. At the same time, due to the large length of the arXiv:1905.12859v1 [econ.EM] 30 May 2019 tracks and the distance between large settlements, regional passenger companies cannot cover the costs of operating local rail transport by the revenue from ticket sales. For instance, the revenue of LLC Perm Local Rail Company (PPK) in 2017 amounted to 596 million rubles (near 1 mln. -

Each technological period forms a certain set of innovations directed to the sustained economic growth. In the developed countries from 40% to 90% of the growth of the gross domestic product is formed due to high technologies. For Russia, which is in the sphere of political and economic sanctions, one of the main forces in formation of sustainable development there have to be science and technology parks. Their main objective is creation and advance of scientific and technical business. Diversification and new technologies are very important for Russia which is in rather dense technological dependence on a number of foreign countries today. It is on the basis of the retrospective analysis of emergence and development of science and technology parks in country aspect, the qualitative analysis of changes of the comparative characteristic of the technological processes accompanying development of territorial and industrial complexes and creation of the knowledge-intensive competitive production.
