KOSTINA Institute of Marine Biology, Academy of Sciences of Russia, Vladivostok 690041, Russia Abstract A description of the intertidal biota of volcanic Yankich Island (Ushishir Islands, Kuril Islands) is given. The species composition and vertical distribution pattern of the intertidal communities at various localities are described in relation to environmental factors, such as nature of the substrate, surf conditions and volcanic vent water. The macrobenthos is poor in the areas directly influenced by high tempera ture (20-40°C) and high sulphur content. There are no marked changes in the intertidal communities in the areas of volcanic springs that are characterised by temperature below 10°C and by the absence of sulphur compounds. In general, the species composi tion and distribution of the intertidal biota are ordinary for the intertidal zone of the middle Kuril Islands. But there are departures from the typical zonation of the intertidal biota. Also, mass populations of Balanus crenatus appear. -
Status and Occurrence of Parakeet Auklet (Aethia Psittacula) in British Columbia
Status and Occurrence of Parakeet Auklet (Aethia psittacula) in British Columbia. By Rick Toochin and Louis Haviland. Introduction and Distribution The Parakeet Auklet (Aethia psittacula) is a small species of auklet found breeding in the Beringia region of Alaska and Russia (Gaston and Jones 1998). This species has an Alaskan population estimated at 1 million birds (Gaston and Jones 1998). There is also a Russian population, but the exact population total is not known, due to a lack of population inventory work, but it is estimated to number about 400,000 birds with the vast majority, about 300,000 birds, found in the Sea of Okhotsk (Gaston and Jones 1998). The Parakeet Auklet has breeding colonies that are found on rocky mainland points and islands in the Gulf of Alaska (Jones et al. 2001). These sites include: Shumagin Island, Semidi Isand, Chirikof Island near Kodiak, locally in Kenai Peninsula and southeastern Alaska with small numbers south to St. Lazaria, Hazy and Forrester Island; and in the Aleutian Islands west to Buldir and Agattu Island; and in the Bering Sea at Little Diomede, St. Lawrence Island, King Island, St. Matthew Island, Pribilof Island and Nunivak Island (Sowls et al. 1978). The Parakeet Auklet also breeds in Russia in the Kurile Island chain with colonies on Chirinkontan, Lovushki, Raikoke, Matua, Yankicha, Simushir, Brat Chirpoev, Urup, and Iturup Island (Jones et al. 2001, Brazil 2009). They are also breeding on islands in the Sea of Okhotsk with colonies on Sakhalin, Tyuleniy, Iona, Talan, and Yamskyie Island (Jones et al. 2001, Brazil 2009). The Parakeet Auklet is also found breeding on Commander Island, and northwards locally along coast of the Kamchatka Peninsula, on Karaginski Island, Cape Navarin, and on Chukotka Peninsula (Konyukhov 1989, Kondratyev et al. -

Romanyuk* Institute of Marine Geology and Geophysics, FEB RAS, Artem V. Degterev Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk, Russia *E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Резюме RUS The report based on the analysis of satellite images considers the features of the changes in the configuration of the coastline of Raikoke island volcano (Middle Kuril Islands) caused by a strong explosive eruption on June 21–25, 2019. As a result of the accumulation of a significant amount of material from pyroclastic flows and tephra along the periphery of the volcanic edifice ejected during the active phase of the eruption, the area of Raikoke Island has sharply increased by 0.53 km2 (12.7 % of the original area). Immediately after the end of the eruption, under the influence of wave processes and alongshore currents, the destruction process of newly formed land areas has begun. Such cyclic processes are shown to be typical for the volcanic islands of the region and determine the coastline development and the appearance of the coastal zone as a whole.

Surviving Sudden Environmental Change: Answers from Archaeology
ONE Hazards, Impacts, and Resilience among Hunter-Gatherers of the Kuril Islands Ben Fitzhugh ARCHAEOLOGICAL APPROACHES TO CATASTROPHIC EvEnts in thE huntEr-GathErEr ContExt This chapter explores hunter-gatherer vulnerability in the context of relative isolation and a highly dynamic natural environment. The setting is the Kuril Islands of the Northwest Pacific, and the data set is a 4,000-year record of human settlement and environmental history generated by the Kuril Biocomplexity Project, a large, interdisciplinary, and international research effort fielded from 2006 to 2008. The presupposition entering this project was that this relatively isolated, volcanic, earthquake- and tsunami-prone subarctic region should be among the more difficult habitats for hunter-gatherer populations to occupy consistently and, as a result, that the archaeological record should reflect peri- odic abandonments, at least in the most isolated (and smallest) central islands. The results of this study speak less to this heuristic presupposition than to the idea of resilience in the face of ecological impoverishment, catastrophic events, and climate changes. The history we are uncovering highlights the importance of linked social, economic, and demographic processes in conditioning vulner- ability and shaping people’s resilience in the environment. Hazards and disasters are the focus of increasing interest in natural and social science, stimulated by growing media attention to disasters around the world. Calls for improved prediction of catastrophic events have generated 19 BEN FITZHUGH enhanced support for retrospective studies of historical pattern and periodicity in earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, floods, drought, climate change, and other natural hazards. Social science has entered this arena to better under- stand human responses to hazardous events and environmental change, most recently calling for more integrated research into the socio-natural dynamics of disasters (Blaikie et al. -

20. Russo-Japanese Relations and the Security of North-East Asia in the 21St Century
20. Russo-Japanese relations and the security of North-East Asia in the 21st century Tsuyoshi Hasegawa I. Introduction Since the spring of 1996 Russo-Japanese relations have shown remarkable improvement. At the beginning of 1997, the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs initiated a ‘multi-layered’ approach to Russia, expanding cooperation into the economic and security areas and abandoning the policy of ‘balanced expansion’ which linked the level of economic cooperation with progress on the issue of the southern Kuril Islands. In July then Prime Minister Ryutaro Hashimoto delivered a historic speech at the Keizai Doyukai (the Japanese Association of Corporate Executives), proclaiming Japan’s Eurasian foreign policy and enunciating three principles—trust, mutual interest and long-term perspective—as the guiding principles of Japan’s Russia policy.1 This was followed by two ‘no-necktie’ meetings between Hashimoto and Russian Presi- dent Boris Yeltsin, first in November 1997 at Krasnoyarsk and then in April 1998 at Kawana in Japan. At Krasnoyarsk Hashimoto and Yeltsin signed the Hashimoto–Yeltsin Plan for economic cooperation and pledged to conclude a peace treaty by the year 2000, resolving the question of the Kuril Islands on the basis of the 1993 Tokyo Declaration.2 At Kawana, Hashimoto reportedly proposed a solution to the territorial issue by proposing the demarcation of the border.3 Hashimoto was scheduled to make a trip to Moscow in the autumn of 1998, at which point Yeltsin was expected to respond to this proposal. The unprecedented speed with which both sides attempted to repair relations that had long been in stalemate gave rise to expectations in both Japan and Russia that it might indeed be possible to conclude a peace treaty before the next millennium. -

Hydrothermal fluxes of magmatic chlorine and sulfur from volcano-hydrothermal systems of the Kuril Islands (Russia). Elena Kalacheva (1) and Yuri Taran (1,2) (1) Institute of Volcanology and Seismology, FED RAS, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky 683006, Russia ([email protected]), (2) Institute of Geophysics, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, México City 04510, México ([email protected]) The hydrothermal flux may be provided by the discharge of fluids formed at depth over the magma body and/or by acid waters, which are formed by the absorption of the ascending volcanic vapor by shallow groundwater. Thus, the anion composition (Cl and SO4) of the discharging thermal waters from a volcano-hydrothermal system in many cases originates from the volcanic vapor and should be taken into account in estimations of the magmatic volatile output and volatile recycling in subduction zones. Here we report the chemical composition of thermal waters and the measured solute fluxes from volcano-hydrothermal systems of Kuril Islands including Paramushir (Ebeko volcanic centre), Shiashkotan (volcanoes Sinarka and Kuntomintar), Ketoy (Pallas volcano), Kunashir (vol- canoes Mendeleev and Golovnin). The fluxes were estimated after measuring flow rates and water composition of streams that drain thermal fields of islands. The maximal hydrothermal flux of Cl and S within the Kuril Chain was measured for Ebeko volcano, Paramushir (drained by Yurieva River) as 82 t/d and 222 t/d of chloride and sulfate, respectively. This is comparable with output by fumaroles of Ebeko. -

Ohio Simulated Emergency Test “Black Swan 2018” (from Stan, N8BHL – Section Emergency Coordinator) ARES / W8SGT report - October 6-7, 2018 Executive Summary Ohio Auxcomm participated in the ARES “Simulated Emergency Test (SET)” creating a multi-state severe weather event in which many Ohio county ARES organizations tested their ability to activate, react to a winter storm with damage to communication infrastructure and other localized situations created by the county ARES Emergency Coordinator (EC). As the centerpiece of amateur radio assistance to Ohio, the Auxcomm station at Ohio EOC/JDF, W8SGT, was operational from 8 AM – 6 PM Saturday and 8 AM – 2 PM Sunday. W8SGT communicated with over 50 individual stations in at least 27 counties during the period, distributing 25 operational bulletins (OPBUL) throughout the period and handing a large amount of message traffic. The station was fully operational using HF 3.902 MHz sideband voice, HF 3.585 MHz digital messaging, VHF FM voice message handling, and UHF DMR digital voice checkins ( 16 stations in 9 counties). This was an excellent test requiring us to run full resources at the station and produced some quantifiable results. Overall, operationally the station handled the winter blizzard very well. The station was able to connect to SHARES/FEMA stations on 60 meters, an important interoperability test. There are some technical issues which were known prior but which showed up as significant restrictions to the stations operations. These primarily center on antenna problems which should be addressed.
