Rusçada Zabaykalye, Balkal Gölü’nün doğusu anlamına gelir. Trans-Baykal Bölgesi, Sibirya'nın en güneydoğusunda, doğu Trans-Baykal'ın neredeyse tüm bölgesini işgal eder. Bölge şiddetli iklim koşulları; birçok mineral ve hammadde kaynağı; ormanların ve tarım arazilerinin varlığı ile karakterize edilir. Rusya Federasyonu'nun Uzakdoğu Federal Bölgesi’nin bir parçası olan on bir kurucu kuruluşu arasında bölge, alan açısından altıncı, nüfus açısından dördüncü, bölgesel ürün üretimi açısından (GRP) altıncı sıradadır. Bölge topraklarından geçen Trans-Sibirya Demiryolu yalnızca Uzak Doğu ile Rusya'nın batı bölgeleri arasında bir ulaşım bağlantısı değil, aynı zamanda Avrasya geçişini sağlayan küresel altyapının da bir parçasıdır. Bölgenin üretim yapısında sanayi, tarım ve ulaşım yüksek bir paya sahiptir. Bu çalışmada Trans-Baykal Bölgesi’nin fiziki, beşeri ve ekonomik coğrafya özellikleri ele alınmıştır. Trans-Baykal Bölgesinin coğrafi özelliklerinin yanı sıra, ekonomik ve kültürel yapısını incelenmiştir. Bu kapsamda konu ile ilgili kurumsal raporlardan ve alan araştırmalarından yararlanılmıştır. Bu çalışma sonucunda 350 yıldan beri Rus gelenek, kültür ve yaşam tarzının devam ettiği, farklı etnik grupların toplumsal birliği sağladığı, yer altı kaynaklarının bölge ekonomisi için yüzyıllardır olduğu gibi günümüzde de önem arz ettiği, coğrafyasının halkın yaşam şeklini belirdiği sonucuna varılmıştır.

  • Environmental Features and Dynamics of Plankton Communities in a Mountain Glacial Moraine Lake (Baikal Lake Basin, Russia)

Afonina, Natalya A. Tashlykova, Alexey P. Kuklin, Gazhit Ts. Tsybekmitova Institute of Natural Resources, Ecology and Cryology of SB RAS, Russia e-mail: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Received: 13.01.2020. Revised: 10.04.2020. Accepted: 02.05.2020. The research on mountain lakes located in non-industrialised areas provides a thorough look at the background condition of the communities of hydrobionts in terms of their composition, structure, and distribution. Lake Shebety is a glacial moraine lake of the Baikal Lake basin, Russia that could be used as a pattern for studying biodiversity and adaptive mechanisms of aquatic communities. This paper is aimed to identify the essential tran- sient factors that regulate the composition and structure of phytoplankton and zooplankton in different zones of Lake Shebety. This will provide a better understanding of the plankton dynamics under the extreme continental climate. The present article is the first limnological investigation conducted for the water body on the above mentioned factors. Samples were collected during the summer of 2002 and 2016. Lake Shebety is located at 1567.4 m above sea level in the Khentei-Daurian Highland which lies in the Chikoi National Park, Trans-Baikal- sky Krai, Russia. The research was performed on the basin morphometry and hydrochemical composition, along with hydrobiological studies of phytoplankton and zooplankton.

  • Water Resources Assessment of the Selenga-Baikal River System
    GEOÖKO VOLUME/BAND XXXIV, 77 – 102 GÖTTINGEN 2013 WATER RESOURCES ASSESSMENT OF THE SELENGA-BAIKAL RIVER SYSTEM SERGEY CHALOV, NIKOLAY KASIMOV, MIKHAIL LYCHAGIN, EKATERINA BELOZEROVA, GALINA SHINKAREVA, PHILIPP THEURING, ANNA ROMANCHENKO, NIKOLAY ALEXEEVSKY, ENDON GARMAEV SUMMARY Paper provides basin-scale integrated assessment of water resources of the largest tributary of Lake Baikal (the Selenga River) extending from northern Mongolia into southern Siberia in Russia with special emphasis on total flow of water through a basin, its quality, structures, laws and economic factors that control its use for the present and future. The water quality and flow data were obtained from historical measurement campaigns, long-term national monitoring, and a novel field campaign done in 2011-2012. The results provide evidence on a very low water availability in upper parts of the basin and insufficient water quality exhibiting high concentrations of dissolved and suspended heavy metals in downstream parts of the Selenga River where elevated concentrations of dissolved and suspended forms of Mn, Fe, Cu, Mo are observed with local 10-20-fold increases of maximum permissible concentrations MPC below large industrial and mining centers. The main pressure on water resources is reported for some Mongolian (Tuul below Ulanbaatar and Zaamar goldfield and the Khangal River below copper-molybdenum mine-mill complex Erdenet) and Russian rivers (Modonkul-Dzhida River system below Zakamensk wolfram-molybdenum mining and processing factory). We concluded that future water resources will depend on general socio-economic trends in both Mongolia and Russia with special focus on development of mining concessions which overlap with current or planned hydropower projects and popu- lation changes and thus water consumption in the region.

The territory of Siberia is of crucial importance for the study of early human dispersal and the peopling of the New World. A Siberian Paleolithic Radiocarbon Database has been compiled. The Database allows us to compile a chronolgi- cal framework for human colonization of Northern Asia. There are 446 14C dates for 13 Middle and 111 Upper Paleolithic sites older than around 12,000 BP. Seventeen percent of the dates were obtained by the accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) technique, and the remaining 83% are conventional. From the viewpoint of the spatial distribution of the 14C-dated sites, the majority of these are located at the Yenisey River Basin, Transbaikal, and the Altai Mountains. The general outline of the Upper Paleolithic colonization of Siberia is given here. The earliest traces of modern human occupation are dated to around 43,000–39,000 BP in the southern part of Siberia. It seems that by around 13,000 BP, almost all of northern Asia, including the extreme northeastern Siberia had been colonized by modern humans. We discuss some controversial problems that have provoked heated debates in current Russian archaeology. Notable among these are the surprisingly early AMS dates for the Early Upper Paleolithic, the age of the Dyuktai culture of Yakutia, the problem of human presence in Siberia at the time of the Last Glacial Maximum (20,000–18,000 BP), and the timing of the initial settling of the Chukchi Peninsula and northeast- ern Siberia.
