The law of one price serves as a criterion of market integration. The data analyzed are time series of the regional costs of a basket of basic foods (staples basket) over 2001–2015. Pairs of regional markets are divided into four groups: perfectly integrated, conditionally integrated, not integrated but tending towards integration (converging), and neither integrated nor converging. Nonlinear time series models with asymptotically decaying trends describe price convergence. Integration of Siberian regional markets is found to be fairly strong; they are integrated and converging with about 70% of country’s regions (including Siberian regions themselves). Keywords: market integration, law of one price; price convergence; nonlinear trend; Russian regions.

  • Distribution of Heavy Metals in Small Streams of the South-West of the Altai Territory (Russia) Under the Influence of Anthropogenic Impact
    E3S Web of Conferences 163, 03008 (2020) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/202016303008 IV Vinogradov Conference Distribution of heavy metals in small streams of the south-west of the Altai territory (Russia) under the influence of anthropogenic impact Oksana Korovina*, Vladimir Somin, and Larisa Komarova Polzunov Altai State Technical University, Lenina avenue, 46, 656038, Barnaul, Russia Abstract. Based on the environmental monitoring materials of Joint-stock company "Sibir-Polimetally", as well as Altai State Technical University scientific research, an analysis was made of the ecological state of the surface waters of small streams in the south-west of the Altai territory: the Nikitikha, Krutishka and Korbolikha rivers. The main pollutants in these water bodies are identified. The research results are relevant for the Altai territory, where small watercourses in the area where industrial enterprises are located can be a source of pollution of large waterways, which are of great economic importance for the Siberian region. 1 Introduction The Nikitikha, Krutishka and Korbolikha rivers flow in the south-west of the Altai Territory (Russia). Krutishka flows into the Korbolikha river, the latter together with the Nikitikha river, are the tributaries of the Alei River, which, in turn, flows into the Ob River (Fig. 1). The main source of possible pollution of the Nikitikha river is Rubtsovsk Metall Processing Plant based in the Rubtsovsk district of Altai Krai. The Korbolikhinsky polymetallic mine, located in the Zmeinogorsky district of Altai Krai, is a potential source of heavy metal pollution in the waters of the Krutishka and Korbolikha rivers. The studied pollutants were selected taking into account the specific character of these enterprises.

All photos have been taken by the author during his field studies in the region. Siberia and India: Historical Cultural Affinities India and Eurasia have had close social and cultural linkages, as Buddhism spread from India to Central Asia, Mongolia, Buryatia, Tuva and far wide. Buddhism provides a direct link between India and the peoples of Siberia (Buryatia, Chita, Irkutsk, Tuva, Altai, Urals etc.) who have distinctive historico-cultural affinities with the Indian Himalayas particularly due to common traditions and Buddhist culture. Revival of Buddhism in Siberia is of great importance to India in terms of restoring and reinvigorating the lost linkages. The Eurasianism of Russia, which is a Eurasian country due to its geographical situation, brings it closer to India in historical-cultural, political and economic terms.

E-mail: [email protected] Received 11 July 2021 │ Accepted by V. Pešić: 30 July 2021 │ Published online 2 August 2021. Abstract The first find of Pseudostyphlus pillumus (Gyllenhal, 1835) (Curculionidae: Curculioninae: Ellescini: Styphlina) from Altaiskii Krai, Western Siberia is recorded. It is the most eastern find of this species. The redescription of Pseudostyphlus pillumus is given. A key for identifying genera of Styphlina from Siberia is completed. Key words: Biodiversity, Curculionoidea, Curculioninae, Styphlina, new record, Siberia. Introduction The subtribe Styphlina is a small monophyletic group of the tribe Ellescini differs from other subtribes by the eyes located towards bottom of the head (Legalov 2021). Nine Recent genera belong to this subtribe (Alonso-Zarazaga et al. 2017). Diversity centre of Styphlina is in the Western Palaearctic. Paraphilernus bilunulatus (Desbrochers des Loges, 1870), Philernus cretaceous Korotyaev, 1979, Ph. farinosus (Gebler, 1829), Pseudostyphlus pillumus (Gyllenhal, 1835) and Styphlus orthochaetinus (Reitter, 1916) were recorded from Siberia (Legalov 2020; Legalov and Reshetnikov 2021). Pseudostyphlus pillumus is found on the steppe bank of the Kizikha River from Rubtsovsky District of Altaiskii Krai (Fig.

  • Vehicle Registration Plates of Russia
    Vehicle registration plates of Russia Russian registration plate, as observed in 2007 -177 stands for Moscow. Russian registration plate, as observed in 2007 -51 stands for Murmansk Oblast. Russian registration plate, as observed in 2004 -78 stands for Saint-Petersburg. Russian registration plate for trailers In Russia, the plate format has changed since the collapse of the Soviet Union. Soviet plates prior to 1982 were white-on-black. They had combination of four digits, grouped by two and three Cyrillic letters. Rear plate was square with letters located below the numbers. From those letters, first two indicated the region. For example, 75-63 КЛЖ combination referred to a car from the Kaliningrad Region. After 1982 a new black-on-white format for newly registered cars was adopted. The current format uses a letter followed by 3 digits and two more letters. To improve legibility of the numbers for Russian cars abroad, only a small subset of Cyrillic characters that look like Latin characters are used (12 letters: А, В, Е, К, М, Н, О, Р, С, Т, У, Х). Finally, the region number (77, 99, 97, 177 and now 199 for Moscow, 78 and 98 for Saint-Petersburg) and letters "RUS" are included, as well as the national flag (the flag was not used on some of the earliest plates of this format). There is a different format for trailers (4 digits and 2 letters). The standard size for the license plate is 520 mm by 110 mm. Trucks and buses generally have their license numbers painted on them in large letters on the rear of the vehicle, although they also bear license plates.
