4C Dating of Late Pleistocene-Holocene Events on Kunashir Island, Kuril Islands
'4C DATING OF LATE PLEISTOCENE-HOLOCENE EVENTS ON KUNASHIR ISLAND, KURIL ISLANDS V. B. BAZAROVA, N. G. RAZJIGAEVA, T. A. GREBENNIKOVA, L. A. GANZEY, L. M. MOKHO VA, A. M. KOROTKY Pacific Institute of Geography, Far East Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences Radio Street 7, Vladivostok 690041 Russia and L. D. SULERZHITSKY Geological Institute, Russian Academy of Sciences, Pyzhevsky Per. 7, Moscow 109017 Russia ABSTRACT. Kunashir Island is a very important site for paleoenvironmental reconstruction. Until recently, very little information on Quaternary deposits was available. We studied the environmental evolution of this oceanic island under the influence of geomorphological processes, volcanism and strong marine currents. This paper presents new data that allow a detailed reconstruction of the environmental development of Kunashir Island during the Late Pleistocene-Holocene, based on ca. 80 radiocarbon dates and diatom, pollen and sedimentological data. The vegetation development reflects climate changes and warm/cold current migrations. INTRODUCTION Kunashir is the largest southern island of the Kuril Island arc, stretching from Hokkaido Island to southern Kamchatka. Kunashir Island is ca. 123 km long and is from 7 to 35 km wide, covering an area of 1490 km2. It stretches from 43°40' to 44°30'N latitude and from 145°23' to 146°30'E longi- tude and is divided by the Izmena Strait (15.5 km wide) from northeastern Hokkaido (Fig. 1). The island is surrounded by the Pacific Ocean to the east and the Sea of Okhotsk to the west. Kunashir has a monsoon-type climate. During the winter, intensive cold and dry air masses move in from Asia; during the summer, cool and moist air comes from the Pacific. -
Notes on Fishes from the Gulf of Nicoya, Costa Rica
Rev. Biol. .• 19( 1. 2): 59-71, 1971 Trop Notes on fishes from the Gulf of Nicoya, Costa Rica by Donald S. Erdman':;' (Received for publication September 13, 1968) From March 1951 through March 1953, I fished for the market in Puno tarenas and collected more than 500 fish specimens and 70 species for the Field Museum of Natural History. This paper concerns information on life histories, migrations, habits and ecology of marine fishes. Of particular interest are notes on blacktip, hammerhead and bonnethead sharks; sawfish, stingrays and mantas; sea catfishes, floating cIingfish, crevalle jack, corbina, sierra and Pacific bonito. Fifty-five fish species are discussed in phylogenetic order, in accordance with BAILEY al. (1). The reader is referred to BUSSING (4) for fresh· et water fishes and BUSSING (5) for marine fish families with sorne vernacular Spanish names. The Gulf of Nicoya is estuarine, with extensive areas of shallow mud bottom. Tidal currents are strong. The difference between high and low tides is 7 feet for neaps and 11 feet for springs. For the purposes of this paper the inner Gulf waters are northwestward of a hypothetical line drawn southwestward from Puntarenas along the north coast of San Lucas Island, where the Gulf narrows, to the coast of Nicoya. Most of these waters are less than 10 fathoms. Fishes characteristic of the inner Gulf were bonnethead sharks, guitarfish, stingrays, eagle rays, ladyfish, anchovies, marine catfishes, toadfish, snooks, groupers, jacks, grunts, corbina and mullets. The outer Gulf south of P�tarenas is open to the ocean and the water is cIearer. -

West-European, Russian, and Japanese Maps of the Kuril Islands up to the 19Th Century: a Comparative Analysis
WEST-EUROPEAN, RUSSIAN, AND JAPANESE MAPS OF THE KURIL ISLANDS UP TO THE 19TH CENTURY: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS Nikolay Komedchikov Alexander Khropov Institute of Geography, Russian Academy of Sciences Staromonetny Pereulok, 29, Moscow, 119017, RUSSIA Lyudmila Zinchuk Russian State Library The ancients showed on their maps in the Far East of the Asian continent the two legendary islands – Chryse and Argyra, they believed that the soil of the former consisted of gold, while that of the latter did of silver. After the Marco Polo's voyage Europeans acquired a clearer idea of Pacific islands including the Japanese ones. Some maps of the 16th century equaled the island of Iapan (Zipangri) with Chryse, to the north of which they showed the island "La Plata" ("Argyra"), as on maps by Abraham Ortelius compiled in 1570 "Tartariae sive magni Chami Regni" and 1589 "MARIS PACIFICI, (quod vulgo Mar del Zur)". The discovery of the Kuril Islands was the result of two independent colonization directions: the exploration and development of Siberia and the Far East by Russian pathfinders and the voyages of West-European sailors. The formers were attracted by fur-bearing animals and virgin lands, the latter – by Eastern spices, gold and silver mines. The Europeans obtained the information on this chain of islands only after they reach Japan in 1565, this information interlaced with information about the island of Eso (Yedso), that is modern Hokkaidō. In 1643 the ships of the Holland expedition under Maarten Gerritsz Vries sailed along the Eastern shores of Eso (Yedso) and the southern Kuril Islands. On the results of this expedition they compiled a map which was published by J. -
