EVENT PASSPORT of the REGION KAMCHATKA Portrait of the Region: a Few Facts Kamchatka and salmon caviar are virtually inseparable. This gourmet product has long become the brand of the region, along with volcanoes and geysers. The Geyser Valley on Kamchatka is one of the largest in the whole world. It was recognized by nationwide vote as one of the seven wonders of Russia. EVENT PASSPORT OF THE REGION KAMCHATKA Portrait of the Region: A Few Facts Kamchatka is the most remote region from the central part of the country, the area with pristine nature and a very small population.

To access the most up-to-date Conservation Outlook Assessment for this site, please visit https://www.worldheritageoutlook.iucn.org. Volcanoes of Kamchatka عقوملا تامولعم Country: Russian Federation Inscribed in: 1996 Criteria: (vii) (viii) (ix) (x) This is one of the most outstanding volcanic regions in the world, with a high density of active volcanoes, a variety of types, and a wide range of related features. The six sites included in the serial designation group together the majority of volcanic features of the Kamchatka peninsula. The interplay of active volcanoes and glaciers forms a dynamic landscape of great beauty. The sites contain great species diversity, including the world's largest known variety of salmonoid fish and exceptional concentrations of sea otter, brown bear and Stellar's sea eagle. © UNESCO صخلملا 2017 Conservation Outlook Significant concern Conservation outlook for the geological values and also for the scenic values of the site is good as these are very robust against human activities, and because such activities are still relatively localized within the property. Conservation outlook is worse for the rich biodiversity values, which are protected by the size, remoteness, relative inaccessibility and pristine state of the site. Unsustainable use of natural resources (legal and illegal hunting and fishing) have started to erode these values along the additional threats posed by existing roads and the trend towards infrastructure development and associated with it increasing accessibility which will further increase the threats for biodiversity values.

  • Ifrc.Org Conclusion
    CHUKOTKA, KAMCHATKA AND 26 August 1999 MAGADAN (FAR NORTH-EASTERN RUSSIA): CRITICALLY ISOLATED COMMUNITIES appeal no. 05/99; 5 Month programme extension until October 15, 1999 situation report no. 5 period covered: 20 July - 25 August 1999 The Russian Far Northeast programme, launched on 8 February to assist 82,000 beneficiaries in the rural regions of Chukotka, Kamchatka, including Koryak okrug and Magadan, is in the final stages of implementation. The intended quantity of family food parcels was produced in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky and Magadan, and distribution is ongoing in all four regions covered by the Appeal. Hygiene kits have also been procured for all the regions and have already been sent to Magadan for distribution. Adverse weather conditions are making air transport difficult and causing logistical constraints. The context The steady erosion of living standards and rise in unemployment associated with a decade of diffi- cult market transition and poor harvests in Russia has taken a high toll in terms of living conditions and brought with it economic inequality and heightened social instability which has been particu- larly devastating for the population of the Far North-eastern remote regions of Chukotka, Kamchatka, including Koryak okrug, and Magadan. Geographic isolation (air transport and dog sleds are the only ways to reach some remote polar areas for many months of the year) combbined with a harsh climate (with temperatures reaching -50 C during long winter months and +40 C in summer), poor infrastructure, a lack of economic diver- sity, the high cost of transport, the over-dependance on imports, and the loss of subsidies have all compounded the regions’ problems.

  • Helicopter Tour to Kuril Lake-Caldera of Volcano Ksudach-Khodutkinskye Hot Springs (Tour 2)
    HELICOPTER TOUR TO VALLEY OF GEYSERS-CALDERA OF VOLCANO UZON-NALYCHEVO VALLEY (TOUR 1) Period – all the year Transportation – helicopter Tour time – 6 hours Flight time – approximately 2 hours 15 minutes The famous Valley of Geysers is a canyon which has one of the biggest geyser area in the world. It is hidden in a hard access gorge of the Kronotsky Nature Reserve. It is unrivalled in beauty, landscape grandeur and number of springs throwing out fountains of hot water and steam. Gushing geysers, raging mud cauldrons, a turquoise lake, hot water and steam jets flowing down the slopes together with the lush greenery of grass and trees create a really fantastic sight. Not far from the Valley of Geysers there is one more unique and impressive place - Uzon caldera. It is a giant cavity with the dimensions 9×12 km, resulting from destruction of the ancient volcano, having an intensive hydrothermal activity on the bottom. There are a lot of boiling and raging craters, numerous mud cauldrons and small volcanoes, yellow fumaroles areas, steamy grounds where the steam and hot water come out from the earth. The peculiarity of this place is the crater-like holes 25-40 m deep and in diameter 25-150 m, in which hot lakes of odd colours are situated. ROUTE 11.00-12.00 - Flight from heliport of Yelizovo city to the Valley of Geysers. Flying around Karymskiy and Malyi Semyachik active volcanoes. 12.00-13.30 - Excursion to the Valley of Geysers. 13.30-13.40 - Flying to the Uzon caldera. 13.40-14.30 - Excursion in the caldera of Uzon volcano.

BINDEMAN, *VERA V. PONOMAREVA, JOHN C. BAILEY, and JOHN W. VALLEY 1Department of Geology and Geophysics, University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI, USA 2Institute of Volcanic Geology and Geochemistry, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Russia 3Geologisk Institut, University of Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark (Received March 20, 2003; accepted in revised form July 16, 2003) Abstract—We present the results of a regional study of oxygen and Sr-Nd-Pb isotopes of Pleistocene to Recent arc volcanism in the Kamchatka Peninsula and the Kuriles, with emphasis on the largest caldera- forming centers. The ␦18O values of phenocrysts, in combination with numerical crystallization modeling (MELTS) and experimental fractionation factors, are used to derive best estimates of primary values for ␦18O(magma). Magmatic ␦18O values span 3.5‰ and are correlated with whole-rock Sr-Nd-Pb isotopes and major elements. Our data show that Kamchatka is a region of isotopic diversity with high-␦18O basaltic magmas (sampling mantle to lower crustal high-␦18O sources), and low-␦18O silicic volcanism (sampling low-␦18O upper crust). Among one hundred Holocene and Late Pleistocene eruptive units from 23 volcanic centers, one half represents low-␦18O magmas (ϩ4 to 5‰). Most low-␦ 18O magmas are voluminous silicic ignimbrites related to large Ͼ10 km3 caldera-forming eruptions and subsequent intracaldera lavas and domes: Holocene multi-caldera Ksudach volcano, Karymsky and Kurile Lake-Iliinsky calderas, and Late Pleistocene Maly Semyachik, Akademy Nauk, and Uzon calderas.
