Conclusion Pour Le Rapport De L'etat 308 RAPPORT 1. Sur l'état du lac Baïkal selon les indicateurs observés en 2019. Niveau du lac . En 2019, en règle générale, des conditions favorables se sont développées pour permettre un afflux utile vers le lac Baïkal, de sorte que le remplissage du lac était élevé et suffisant pour assurer l'approvisionnement en eau domestique. Les valeurs limites de niveau définies par le Décret du Gouvernement de la Fédération de Russie daté du 27.12.2017 n° 1667 « Sur les valeurs maximales et minimales du niveau d'eau dans le lac Baïkal en 2018- 2020 » n'ont pas été atteintes. Au 1er janvier 2019, le niveau moyen d'eau du lac Baïkal était à 456,64 m OP, ce qui est de 0,66 m de plus qu'en 2018 à cette date (01.01.2018 - 455,98 m OP) et 0,21 m au-dessus de la valeur moyenne à long terme du niveau (456,43 m OP). Le destockage du lac Baïkal s'est terminé le 08 mai 2019 à 456,23 m OP. Le débâcle de Baïkal de son couvert de glace s'est produite plus tôt que la norme de 2 à 4 jours. Le dégagement de la glace des parties sud et centrale du lac a eu lieu plus tôt que la période moyenne à long terme de 3 à 8 jours et plus tard que la norme de 2 à 3 jours pour la partie nord, et il en est résulté que l'augmentation de l'afflux vers le lac s'est produite en avance. Le remplissage du lac Baïkal a commencé le 9 mai 2019 et a duré jusqu'au 18 septembre. Le niveau d'eau pendant la période de remplissage a augmenté de 0,65 m à un repère de 456,88 m, ce qui est de 0,07 m en dessous du repère maximale de 2018 (456,95 m OP). Le destockage du niveau d'eau de lac Baïkal a commencé le 19 septembre 2019, et à la fin de l'année, le niveau est tombé à 456,48 m OP. La couche de surface et la colonne d'eau en 2019 ont été observées par le Centre d'hydrométéorologie et de surveillance de l'environnement d'Irkoutsk du Service fédéral d'hydrométéorologie et de surveillance de l'environnement de la Fédération de Russie : - sur le Baïkal du Sud – dans la région de l'influence des eaux usées de l'Installation de traitement en commun de la ville de Baïkalsk ; - dans la région des ports du Baïkal du Sud (loc. de Bolchoie Golooustnoïe, loc. de Koultouk, loc. Baïkal et loc. Vydrino) ; - près de la source de l'Angara ; - dans la région des eaux maigres de Selenga ; - dans la région du Golfe de Bargouzine ; - au Baïkal du Nord – dans la zone d'influence du tracé de la Magistrale Baïkal-Amour (MBA) ; - sur les stations de fond bathyales de la section de repère, passant le long du lac Baïkal au large de sa partie centrale. Les résultats des observations hydrochimiques sur les stations de fond bathyales de la section de repère en 2019 ont montré que la teneur moyenne en oxygène dissous dans l'eau, en minéraux, en azote de nitrite, de nitrate et ammoniacal, en phosphates, en silicium, en produits pétroliers, en sulfates, en chlorures, en agents tensio-actifs synthétiques, en plomb, en manganèse, en nickel, en cadmium, en cuivre, en zinc, en cobalt, en argent, en aluminium, en chrome et la plage de valeurs de l'indice d'hydrogène étaient dans les limites des normes acceptables. La présence de pesticides organochlorés (p,p-DDT, p,p-DDD, p,p-DDE, alpha- gexane, gamma-gexane) n'a pas été détectée dans les eaux du lac Baïkal. À toutes les stations de fond de la section de référence (sauf pour la station Zavorotnaya), les concentrations annuelles moyennes de phénols ont été enregistrées au niveau des valeurs maximales admissibles. Par rapport à 2018, en 2019, la teneur moyenne en nitrate et en azote ammoniacal a augmenté de 4,0 et 1,7 fois, respectivement, les solides en suspension, le silicium, le phosphore total et organique - de 1,2 fois, le carbone organique - de 1,1 fois ; manganèse et zinc - de 2,0 fois, fer - de 1,5 fois, cadmium - de 1,3 fois, cobalt - de 1,1 fois. La concentration moyenne d'azote nitrique a diminué de 2,0 fois, le chlorure - de 1,3 fois; chrome - de 2,0 fois, aluminium - de 1,8 fois, plomb - de 1,3 fois, béryllium - de 1,1 fois, mercure - à des valeurs nulles (de 0,001 309 μg / dm3). La teneur moyenne en oxygène, minéraux, produits pétroliers, sulfates, phosphore minéral, nickel, cuivre et argent dissous dans l'eau est restée au niveau de 2018. Dans tous les points d'observation du lac Baïkal la qualité de l'eau selon IUIPE a été caractérisé comme la 1-ère classe « conditionnellement propre ». Par rapport à l'année 2018, la qualité de l'eau du lac est restée au même niveau. En 2019, dans la région du lac Baïkal, adjacente au territoire du Combinat de cellulose et de pâte à papier de Baïkal, les concentrations moyennes de soufre non sulfaté ont été multipliées par 2,0, de fer - 1,5 fois, de zinc - 1,3 fois, de nickel - 1,1 fois par rapport aux valeurs de fond. Les valeurs moyennes des concentrations d'oxygène dissous dans l'eau, les minéraux, les produits pétroliers, le carbone organique, les sulfates, les chlorures, le soufre total, le manganèse, le cobalt, le cuivre, le chrome, le mercure étaient au niveau de fond. Les concentrations moyennes de solides en suspension dans la zone d'eau de la décharge étaient 1,5 fois inférieures au niveau de fond, silicium, plomb et aluminium - 1,2 fois, cadmium, argent et béryllium - 1,1 fois. Dans la section témoin de 100 mètres en 2019, la concentration moyenne de phénols correspondait au niveau des valeurs maximales admissibles. La teneur moyenne des autres substances observées (substances minérales et en suspension, sulfates, chlorures) n'a pas dépassé les limites admissibles. La valeur maximale des solides en suspension a dépassé la norme de 1,5 fois (en mars), les phénols - 3 fois (en juin). De plus, il y avait un excès de la concentration maximale de phénols jusqu'aux 2 valeurs maximales admissible doublées en février, mars, avril et août. Les valeurs de l’indice d'hydrogène étaient dans les limites admissibles. Par rapport à 2018, dans la zone affectée par les eaux usées de la station d'épuration de la ville de Baïkalsk, la teneur moyenne en chrome a augmenté dans l'eau du lac Baïkal de 1,7 fois, manganèse et cobalt - 1,6 fois, argent - 1,4 fois, soufre sans sulfate, carbone organique et nickel - 1,3 fois, silicium, plomb et zinc - 1,2 fois, béryllium - 1,1 fois. La concentration de solides en suspension a diminué de 3,0 fois, de cadmium - 1,7 fois, d'aluminium - 1,6 fois, de fer - 1,2 fois, de chlorures - 1,1 fois, de mercure - à des valeurs nulles (de 0,005 μg / dm3). La teneur moyenne en minéraux, oxygène dissous dans l'eau, produits pétroliers, sulfates, soufre total est restée au niveau de 2018. La plage des valeurs de pH n'a pas changé de manière significative. Dans la région des ports du Baïkal du Sud en 2019, les concentrations moyennes de substances normalisées n'ont pas dépassé des normes de qualité des eaux des corps hydriques destinés à la capture industrielle, à l'exception des phénols. La teneur annuelle moyenne en phénols a dépassé les valeurs maximales admissibles de 2,0 fois dans le port de loc.Baïkal et était au niveau des valeurs maximales admissibles dans les ports de loc. Vydrino et de Baïkalsk. Par rapport à 2018, près de la source de l'Angara la teneur moyenne en azote nitrique a augmenté de 6,7 fois, solides en suspension de 1,5 fois, carbone organique de 1,2 fois, produits pétroliers - de zéro à 0,01 mg / dm3; la teneur moyenne en chlorures et en phosphore organique a diminué de 1,3 fois, en sulfates et en phosphore total de 1,1 fois. Dans la partie centrale du lac, dans la région du golfe de Bargouzine et des eaux maigres de Selenga, les concentrations moyennes et maximales de minéraux, d'azote de nitrite, de nitrate et ammoniacal, de phosphates, de silicium, de produits pétroliers, de sulfates, de chlorures ne dépassaient pas les limites réglementées. La consistance de oxygène dissous dans l'eau et la plage des valeurs de pH étaient dans les limites acceptables.

  • Lake Baikal Russian Federation
    LAKE BAIKAL RUSSIAN FEDERATION Lake Baikal is in south central Siberia close to the Mongolian border. It is the largest, oldest by 20 million years, and deepest, at 1,638m, of the world's lakes. It is 3.15 million hectares in size and contains a fifth of the world's unfrozen surface freshwater. Its age and isolation and unusually fertile depths have given it the world's richest and most unusual lacustrine fauna which, like the Galapagos islands’, is of outstanding value to evolutionary science. The exceptional variety of endemic animals and plants make the lake one of the most biologically diverse on earth. Threats to the site: Present threats are the untreated wastes from the river Selenga, potential oil and gas exploration in the Selenga delta, widespread lake-edge pollution and over-hunting of the Baikal seals. However, the threat of an oil pipeline along the lake’s north shore was averted in 2006 by Presidential decree and the pulp and cellulose mill on the southern shore which polluted 200 sq. km of the lake, caused some of the worst air pollution in Russia and genetic mutations in some of the lake’s endemic species, was closed in 2009 as no longer profitable to run. COUNTRY Russian Federation NAME Lake Baikal NATURAL WORLD HERITAGE SERIAL SITE 1996: Inscribed on the World Heritage List under Natural Criteria vii, viii, ix and x. STATEMENT OF OUTSTANDING UNIVERSAL VALUE The UNESCO World Heritage Committee issued the following statement at the time of inscription. Justification for Inscription The Committee inscribed Lake Baikal the most outstanding example of a freshwater ecosystem on the basis of: Criteria (vii), (viii), (ix) and (x).

    How to use the Atlas The Atlas has two map sections The Main Section shows the location of Russia’s intact forest landscapes. The Thematic Section shows their tree species composition in two different ways. The legend is placed at the beginning of each set of maps. If you are looking for an area near a town or village Go to the Index on page 153 and find the alphabetical list of settlements by English name. The Cyrillic name is also given along with the map page number and coordinates (latitude and longitude) where it can be found. Capitals of regions and districts (raiony) are listed along with many other settlements, but only in the vicinity of intact forest landscapes. The reader should not expect to see a city like Moscow listed. Villages that are insufficiently known or very small are not listed and appear on the map only as nameless dots. If you are looking for an administrative region Go to the Index on page 185 and find the list of administrative regions. The numbers refer to the map on the inside back cover. Having found the region on this map, the reader will know which index map to use to search further. If you are looking for the big picture Go to the overview map on page 35. This map shows all of Russia’s Intact Forest Landscapes, along with the borders and Roman numerals of the five index maps. If you are looking for a certain part of Russia Find the appropriate index map. These show the borders of the detailed maps for different parts of the country.

Ulan-Ude, 2013, 56 pp. These three, slim self-published books invite readers to ponder a number of matters. Quite apart from the question of the quality of what they contain, they serve as a sharp reminder of how difficult it can be for those of us outside of Russia to keep up on literature that is published outside of a few major cities and which may be devoted to the subject of local history. I cannot imagine many libraries would have stumbled across these volumes, each published in 150 copies and probably intended in the first instance for sale in Transbaikalia to enthusiasts about its local history. Unless eventually all such regional publications can be made available in digital form on line, it seems likely that many which deserve wider attention (both within and outside Russia) may never reach a broader audience. This then raises a second question: Should we care? That is, do the works of “amateur” enthusiasts merit our attention? It would not be difficult to document how “professional scholars” have generally tended to look down their noses at “provincial amateurs,” arguably not always without cause, even though we might also suggest that those who live in glass houses should not throw stones.

  • 2020 Conservation Outlook Assessment
    IUCN World Heritage Outlook: https://worldheritageoutlook.iucn.org/ Lake Baikal - 2020 Conservation Outlook Assessment Lake Baikal 2020 Conservation Outlook Assessment SITE INFORMATION Country: Russian Federation Inscribed in: 1996 Criteria: (vii) (viii) (ix) (x) Situated in south-east Siberia, the 3.15-million-ha Lake Baikal is the oldest (25 million years) and deepest (1,700 m) lake in the world. It contains 20% of the world's total unfrozen freshwater reserve. Known as the 'Galapagos of Russia', its age and isolation have produced one of the world's richest and most unusual freshwater faunas, which is of exceptional value to evolutionary science. © UNESCO SUMMARY 2020 Conservation Outlook Finalised on 07 Dec 2020 SIGNIFICANT CONCERN The conservation outlook of Lake Baikal is of concern because of ongoing pollution, as well as new emerging threats, such as large-scale tourism development, poor sewage treatment causing nearshore eutrophication, and climate change. The potential of hydroelectric developments on the Selenga and Orkhon Rivers in Mongolia, as well as the current temporary Regulation allowing a marked increase in range of lake water level fluctuations regulated by the Irkutsk Dam in Russia, are also of high concern. The decision to close the Baikalsk Paper and Pulp Mill has been a positive step, but its implementation and mitigation of past negative impacts will require time and significant efforts. Lack of progress in this regard to date is of concern. At the same time, the overall protection and management regime of the World Heritage site remains insufficient due to an inadequate legal framework and a fragmented and overcomplicated institutional setup.

As a major source of the world’s fresh lake water, Lake Baikal is exceptional in its size and ability to withstand pollutants. However, because of residents’ assumptions that the lake will endure anything, it is also highly threatened (see The Aral Sea case study for an example of what can happen when water is not managed well).

  • Waterbirds of Lake Baikal, Eastern Siberia, Russia
    FORKTAIL 25 (2009): 13–70 Waterbirds of Lake Baikal, eastern Siberia, Russia JIŘÍ MLÍKOVSKÝ Lake Baikal lies in eastern Siberia, Russia. Due to its huge size, its waterbird fauna is still insufficiently known in spite of a long history of relevant research and the efforts of local and visiting ornithologists and birdwatchers. Overall, 137 waterbird species have been recorded at Lake Baikal since 1800, with records of five further species considered not acceptable, and one species recorded only prior to 1800. Only 50 species currently breed at Lake Baikal, while another 11 species bred there in the past or were recorded as occasional breeders. Only three species of conservation importance (all Near Threatened) currently breed or regularly migrate at Lake Baikal: Asian Dowitcher Limnodromus semipalmatus, Black-tailed Godwit Limosa limosa and Eurasian Curlew Numenius arquata. INTRODUCTION In the course of past centuries water levels in LB fluctuated considerably (Galaziy 1967, 1972), but the Lake Baikal (hereafter ‘LB’) is the largest lake in Siberia effects on the local avifauna have not been documented. and one of the largest in the world.

  • Religion and Identity in Buryatia: Competition Between Orthodoxy and Buddhism in Imperial Russia
    Volume3 Issue 2 INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HUMANITIES AND September 2016 CULTURAL STUDIES ISSN 2356-5926 Religion and Identity in Buryatia: Competition between Orthodoxy and Buddhism in Imperial Russia Darima Amogolonova Leading researcher, Dr. of Sciences in History, Institute for Mongolian, Buddhist and Tibetan Studies, Siberian Branch, Russian Academy of Sciences, Ulan-Ude, Russia The research was supported by the Russian Science Foundation in the framework of the Research Project “Buddhism in the Socio-Political and Cultural Processes in Russia, Inner and East Asia: Transformations and Prospects», № 14-18-00444. Abstract The paper discusses political importance of religious identity in the context of competition between Orthodoxy and Buddhism in the Buryat spiritual space. Christianization of Buryats, who are one of the biggest Siberian indigenous ethnic groups, as well as other non-Russians in the remote regions of Russia, seemed a necessary tool for strengthening the borders of the Empire under threat from Qing China. While Christianization of Pre-Baikal (Western) Buryats-shamanists was quite successful at least formally, the Trans-Baikal Buryats remained largely steadfast Buddhists. Considering this fact, the secular authorities built relationships with the Buddhist clergy in the framework of the existed legal regulations. However, the relation of the Orthodoxy towards Buddhism was irreconcilable overall the imperial history. The situation worsened at the end of the XIX century, when in connection with the Buryat ethnonational movements Buddhism began to spread among Western Buryats causing serious trouble to the Irkutsk Orthodox eparchy. Meanwhile, in addition to big adaptive ability, institutionalized Buddhism in Russia developed all-Buryat adoration and devotion to the Tsar through appropriate preaching among believers thus promoting and strengthening both its own positions and Russian identity of the Buryats.
