OMNET: Sciencenet Access via IASNET, the Soviet 163 Data Network I L. Examples of Joint Ventures in Ocean Sciences: 170 I AMR USSCO, ALMAZ, IRIS, Soyuz Marine Service I I I I INTRODUCTION The idea of a workshop to discuss U.S.-Soviet ocean science cooperation was first broached during the February 1991 meeting of The Oceanography Society in St. I Petersburg, FL. At that time the Bilateral Agreement on Ocean Studies had recently been signed, the Soviets were about to rejoin the Ocean Drilling Program, and individual and institutional contacts between the two nations' oceanographic communities were increasing I dramatically. The major U.S. ocean science sponsors-- NOAA, NSF, and Navy-- agreed that given the challenges inherent in close cooperation with the Soviets in an area of militarily and economically significant research, it would be a good idea for federal agency I representatives and academics to informally discuss the risks and advantages of cooperation, and to outline priorities and guidelines to improve our chances for successful I and scientifically profitable collaboration. Of course, it's tough to hit a chaotically moving target. By the time of the workshop it was clear that the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics was disintegrating. Although no one I had any insight into the type of governmental or scientific structure that might evolve in what participants came to call the former USSR or FUSSR, it was clear that the ground I rules for collaboration would be vastly different than in the days of a powerful Soviet Academy of Science and a highly centralized planning system. I In spite of the uncertainties, the sponsors determined that it would still be worthwhile to hold the workshop. Preparation for it offered the Navy and other involved agencies an opportunity to review their own policies and procedures. Participation would provide a I relatively unusual opportunity for open discussion on a topic of common interest among representatives of a variety of pursuits ... scientists from academia and from federal laboratories, businessmen with joint ventures in the FUSSR, military officers, civil servants I from the Departments of State, Commerce, and Defense, and members of the intelligence community from Navy, OSD, and CIA. I Perhaps because of the challenge of dealing with uncertainty and the eclectic mix of individuals and viewpoints, the participants felt that the workshop was a success. In I addition to identifying topics and individuals of interest in each of the areas of ocean science discussed, some common themes emerged. Equally as important, each of the groups gained an appreciation for the concerns, knowledge, and responsibilities of the I others, so that simply through the presentations and discussion the U.S. infrastructure for interacting in ocean science with whatever system ultimately evolves in the FUSSR was I improved. The workshop format basically consisted of seven thematic panels, each dealing with an area of mutual U.S. and Soviet interest: physical oceanography, geology and geophysics, I biogeochemistry, acoustics, space/remote sensing, the Arctic, and marine policy. Panel chairmen gave a brief overview of major issues in their area at an initial plenary session, I I 1 I I and then led a day-plus discussion with a charge to report back to a concluding plenary session the following information: I o A brief reminder of major U.S. programs, priorities, and plans in each thematic area, and any deficiencies in our approach (be they scientific, technical, logistical, etc.). I o Soviet priorities and plans in the field to the degree we understand them, and their relationship to U.S. programs and interests. o Similarities and differences in their basic approaches to major science issues; I particularly, Soviet theories or programs (e.g., SECTIONS vs. WOCE; TRANSECfS vs. RIDGE) that are substantively at variance with ours (and, if I understood, the reason for their approach). o Soviet unique strengths and weaknesses in the area (scientific, technical, infrastructure, etc.), particularly as they complement ours. I o Things we would like the Soviets to do to support U.S. global scientific objectives, and the benefits to us. o Programs, projects, etc. in which we should urge Soviet participation, types of I activity or support desired, and inducements for their participation. o Areas of cooperation we do not desire or should discourage. o Key Soviet individuals and institutions. I The reports of these thematic panels form the body of this workshop report. Because of significant differences in subject matter and consequently approach, panel chairmen I chose to address their themes and the charge in various ways, and this is reflected in the format and content of their reports. I I have attempted to summarize the general conclusions of the panels, and the comments of plenary session speakers on U.S. policy perspectives and review mechanisms, I in a section entitled Strategy Approaches and Concerns. Several of the introductory talks contained extremely useful information, and these are included as appendices. I As this report is being prepared, the economic situation in what is currently the Confederation of Independent States continues to worsen, and articles in scientific magazines discuss what can be done to "rescue" Soviet science. In spite of the turmoil, I however, at least at WHOI our interaction with Russian, Ukranian, and other FUSSR colleagues continues apace. In the week before Christmas we hosted simultaneous visits by oceanographers from Vladivostok, Sevastopol, and three separate institutes in Moscow. I All of our visitors came, did their research, presented papers, made plans for future cooperative efforts, and went home. There is, I believe, reason to think that cooperation with the Soviets in ocean science will be of continuing importance for both sides. I December 1991~ \~•--- I Craig E. Dorman Workshop Coordinator I 2 I --------------------- --- ----- ---- I I EXECUTIVE SUMMARY I As the former Soviet Union started to open up in 1989, the initial impetus for U.S. cooperation with their ocean scientists was access. Access to minds, techniques, ideas, assets and areas which had effectively been closed to us for decades. U.S. academic I oceanography is a very competitive process, however, and scientists faced very real disincentives to collaboration: the extraordinary time and effort required to make contact and identify good counterparts, the opaqueness of Soviet literature, suspicions about data I quality, previous experiences (such as POLYMODE) where the benefits to the two sides were unequal, the unwillingness of sponsors to support the risk and uncertainties entailed in working from Soviet ships or with their scientists, both sides' red tape, and the potential I hostility of a U.S. Navy which still faced a formidable Soviet military. A few venturesome U.S. scientists however were willing to afford the opportunity costs. When they derived I considerable benefit others were encouraged, and as time went on a combination of agency and Institutional contacts, plus more activism on the part of the Soviets, reduced some of I the logistics and communications burden. As the political make-up of the former Soviet Union has shifted and the economic situation become even more desperate during the last few months, however, the conditions I for cooperation have necessarily changed. For example even a year ago, Soviet Institutions would commit to programs, cruises, and 'free' ship time with reasonable certainty. Then, as the concepts of political reform and market economies started to catch hold, there was a I scramble to form joint ventures and 'sell' services, and they began to request financial support even to conclude past commitments. Now we hear of first class research vessels like the R/V IOFFE (designed for acoustic experimentation) being converted to car I ferries; reliable schedules are unheard of, and national ownership of some ships is even in doubt. I In spite of their increasing problems, however, Soviet researchers remain dedicated to their science and their Institutions, and they continue to actively seek cooperation for I mutual benefit.

Nowhere has that been better demonstrated than between Alaska and Magadan Province, USSR. This report summarizes a one year effort financed by ASTF, with participation from several technical organizations, to establish contacts with the Siberian placer mining industry. The purpose of the project was to provide initial assessment of the Soviet technology for placer mining in permafrost. A ten day trip to Magadan province by an ASTF team and a similar length visit to Alaska by the Soviet mining group representing the All Union Scientific and Research Institute of Gold and Rare Metals, (VNII-I), Magadan are described. The report also reviews translated data on mining in permafrost and describes surface and underground placer mining technology developed by the Soviets. The report also lists relevant publications on Soviet mining research and state of the art Soviet mining technology and expertise.

PERESTROIKA AND PRIRODA: ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION IN THE USSR Nicholas A. Robinson* I. Introduction Environmental protection is becoming a substantial field of endeavor today in the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR). Soviets know the environment as priroda, a word which is literally translated as "nature," but whose meaning encompasses all aspects of life within the biosphere. Priroda connotes "mother nature," a nurturing and even moral realm, while also suggesting the ambient environment and all ecolog- ical systems." Protection of the environment has been elevated to a top priority in the Soviet Union because the Soviet's harm to prir'odathroughout that nation has become acute.2 In order to reverse pollution's environmentally- damaging trends, to stay the depletion of natural resources and to restore de- graded conditions resulting, from years of neglect during, the heavy and rapid industrialization in.

Ostermann, Series Editor This paper is one of a series of Working Papers published by the Cold War International History Project of the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars in Washington, D.C. Established in 1991 by a grant from the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, the Cold War International History Project (CWIHP) disseminates new information and perspectives on the history of the Cold War as it emerges from previously inaccessible sources on “the other side” of the post-World War II superpower rivalry. The project supports the full and prompt release of historical materials by governments on all sides of the Cold War, and seeks to accelerate the process of integrating new sources, materials and perspectives from the former “Communist bloc” with the historiography of the Cold War which has been written over the past few decades largely by Western scholars reliant on Western archival sources. It also seeks to transcend barriers of language, geography, and regional specialization to create new links among scholars interested in Cold War history. Among the activities undertaken by the project to promote this aim are a periodic BULLETIN to disseminate new findings, views, and activities pertaining to Cold War history; a fellowship program for young historians from the former Communist bloc to conduct archival research and study Cold War history in the United States; international scholarly meetings, conferences, and seminars; and publications.

The land ecosystems are represented by four biomes. The most important one in terms of surface is the Zambezian biomes, which covers more than 85% of the national territory surface, while the Guinea-Congolese, though it represents only 10.7%, it contains the major wealth of the country.
