  • Tetrapod Localities from the Triassic of the SE of European Russia
    Earth-Science Reviews 60 (2002) 1–66 www.elsevier.com/locate/earscirev Tetrapod localities from the Triassic of the SE of European Russia Valentin P. Tverdokhlebova, Galina I. Tverdokhlebovaa, Mikhail V. Surkova,b, Michael J. Bentonb,* a Geological Institute of Saratov State University, Ulitsa Moskovskaya, 161, Saratov 410075, Russia b Department of Earth Sciences, University of Bristol, Bristol, BS8 1RJ, UK Received 5 November 2001; accepted 22 March 2002 Abstract Fossil tetrapods (amphibians and reptiles) have been discovered at 206 localities in the Lower and Middle Triassic of the southern Urals area of European Russia. The first sites were found in the 1940s, and subsequent surveys, from the 1960s to the present day, have revealed many more. Broad-scale stratigraphic schemes have been published, but full documentation of the rich tetrapod faunas has not been presented before. The area of richest deposits covers some 900,000 km2 of territory between Samara on the River Volga in the NW, and Orenburg and Sakmara in the SW. Continental sedimentary deposits, consisting of mudstones, siltstones, sandstones, and conglomerates deposited by rivers flowing off the Ural Mountain chain, span much of the Lower and Middle Triassic (Induan, Olenekian, Anisian, Ladinian). The succession is divided into seven successive svitas, or assemblages: Kopanskaya (Induan), Staritskaya, Kzylsaiskaya, Gostevskaya, and Petropavlovskaya (all Olenekian), Donguz (Anisian), and Bukobay (Ladinian). This succession, comprising up to 3.5 km of fluvial and lacustrine sediments, documents major climatic changes. At the beginning of the Early Triassic, arid-zone facies were widely developed, aeolian, piedmont and proluvium. These were replaced by fluvial facies, with some features indicating aridity.

  • The Architectural Ensemble of the Kazan Virgin Monastery from The
    The architectural ensemble of the Kazan Virgin Monastery from the Kazanka river Kazan, USSR, 1930, Frank Whitson Fetter architectural history of kazan city in photographs (by frank whitson fetter) Tatyana Krasheninnikova Historian, Kazan Federal University, Institute of International Relations, History and Oriental Studies, [email protected] Ramina Abilova Historian, The State Museum of Fine Arts of the Republic of Tatarstan, [email protected] This paper is dedicated to the architectural history of Kazan depicted in photographs by an American economist Frank Whitson Fetter (1902-1991). He visited the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics in the summer of 1930. During this visit he spent 6 weeks in Kazan, the capital of the Tatar Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic. Here Fetter studied the Russian language with a tutor. At present, the photographs he took in Kazan are kept at the David M. Rubenstein Rare Book & Manuscript Library at Duke University. As an amateur photographer, Fetter took many photographs of Kazan and its outskirts. But his photos differ from tourists’ typical snapshots. Fetter had an interest in the Soviet propaganda. Historic and architectural sights were captured by the photographer if only they were paired with the information of the ideological or economic content. Nevertheless, Fetter`s photographs contain much important information about the architectural history of Kazan. The authors made an attempt to examine Fetter`s series of photographs which was named “Disappearing Kazan” (precisely, “Kazan Temples”). The leading research method used in this study is a dichotomy of concepts -visible/ invisible. The findings of this research can be of some interest to historians.

    E.V. Koposov, I.S. Sobol, A.N. Ezhkov PREDICTION OF FORMATION OF ABRASION AND LANDSLIDE HAZARD SHORES OF THE VOLGA RESERVOIRS The coastline of reservoirs of Volga Сascade has a total length of more than 11,000 km. According to various estimates about 37—48 % of total length of the banks are the banks, breaking down due to abrasion. The length of coastline of reservoirs of Volga Сascade within the boundaries of settlements is 985 km, including those in the major cities 442 km. The greatest evo- lutionary destruction banks are exposed to is avalanche-crumbling the shore of abrasion. The most dangerous of unpredictable behavior is landslide coast. The Gorky reservoir in the forthcoming decade is expected to be subjected to reformation abrasion in his lake part with the average intensity of 0.47—0.10 m/year. For the period of exploitation Cheboksary reservoir from 1981 to 2011 averages of observed speed retreat edge of the abrasion shores amounted to 1.2—0.2 m/year. Large landslides on the Volga River confined to the high slopes of the right bank, folded Upper, Upper Jurassic, Lower Cretaceous deposits, are most common in the Gorky, Cheboksary, Kuibyshev, Saratov, Volgograd reservoir. Development of landslide Sursko-Volga slope in Vasil’sursk is going on from the beginning of observations (1523). In the twentieth century significant increase in landslides observed appeared in 1913—1914, 1946—1948, 1979—1981 (1981 is the year when Cheboksary reservoir had been filled to the level of 63.0 meters). Research method of fractal analysis of landslide activity on the right bank of the Volga River in con- nection with the periods of solar activity have shown that the period 2008—2019 should be characterized by a reduced number of developing landslides, although in 2012 and 2017—2019 were perhaps the years with mean rates.
