UDC 599.745.3 USSR Ministry of Fisheries All-Union Scientific Reasearch Institute of Sea Fisheries and Oceanography (VNIRO) "Sea Mammals" Project 02.05-61 of the USSR-USA Agreement on Cooperation in Environmental Protection Introduction This report includes data on the research conducted on sea mammals of the North Pacific during 1986-1987 within the framework of the "Sea Mammals" project 02.05-61 of the USSR-USA Agreement on Cooperation in Environmental Protection. The various biological, ecological, morphological and other material on sea mammals was collected both in national expeditions, and in joint Soviet-American and American-Soviet expeditions. The following expeditions and stationary investigations have been carried out over the past years: 1. In September—October 1987, a Soviet—American expedition to the Chukchi Sea on the "Zakharovo" hunting and fishing vessel to collect data on the Pacific walrus and ice forms of seals (VNIRO - A.A. Kibalchich; TINRO - V.M. Kogai, O.N. Katugin, A.I. Grachev - Okhotskrybvod, F. Fay - 2 Institute of Marine Research of the University of Alaska, S. Hills - Department of Fisheries and Wildlife, R. Merrick - National Laboratory of Sea Mammals). 2. In October 1987, Soviet investigators with American specialists from the Habbs Marine Institute continued their study of nonmetric characters in the common seal, as well as the structure of dolphin populations of the genus Stenella (IRB AN SSSR - A.V. Yablokov, M.V. Mina; Habbs Marine Institute - B. Stuart, I. Ioham). 3. In October 1987, a Soviet—American expedition to the North Pacific on the "Dobryi" whaler was planned for the purpose of conducting distribution and abundance observations in this part of the ocean. However, ship damage prevented the Americans from taking part in this expedition. From1986 to 1987, the greatest volume of research was carried out within the national programs: 1. In August—October 1986 and in July—October 1987, aerial surveys were conducted to study the distribution and abundance of whales in the coastal waters of the Sea of Okhotsk (A.A. Berzin, V.L. Vladimirov, N.V. Doroshenko - TINRO). 2. In June—October 1986, a whale survey was conducted from the "Tungus" research vessel in the coastal zone of the Sea of Okhotsk and Bering Sea, as well as along the Kurile chain of islands (S.A. Blokhin - TINRO). 3. In 1986 and 1987, an aerial survey of the abundance of ice seals was carried out in the Karaginsky Gulf of the Bering Sea (V.N. Burkanov, A.G. Semenov, S.A. Mashagin, Ye.V. Karayev - Kamchatrybvod). 4. In 1986, a summer—autumn survey of coastal seal rookeries was carried out in the Sea of Okhotsk (SI Lagerev - TINRO). 5. Investigations on the harbour seal of Peter the Great Gulf were carried out (A.M. Trukhin, G.M. Kosygin - TINRO). 6. Data on the comparative characteristics of the mass of the skeleton and its elements in the harbour seal and Kuril seal were analyzed (A.Ye. Kuzin - TINRO). 3 7. Data on some of the factors that reduce the abundance of the brood stock of salmons were obtained in August—September 1987 (A.I. Makhnyr, A.S. Perlov - TINRO) 8. An aerial survey of ice seals of the Bering Sea and the Pacific walrus was carried out in April—May 1987 (G.A. Fedoseyev, Ye.V. Razlivalov, G.G. Bobrova - Magadan branch of TINRO). 9. The 1978-1987 observations on the distribution and abundance of the northern sea-lions on the Commander IsIs. were summed up (V.V. Vertyankin, V.S. Nikulin - Kamchatrybvod). 10. The 1982-1987 data on the distribution and abundance of the coastal rookeries of the Pacific walrus on the Kamchatka Peninsula were correlated (A.R. Semenov, V.N. Burkanov, S.A. Mashagin - Kamchatrybvod). 11. The walrus data from the "Zakharovo" expedition in March—April 1985 were correlated (A.A. Kibalchich - VNIRO). 12. The 1982-1987 data on various questions related to the ecology of the walrus from the Anadyr Gulf were correlated (A.I. Grachev - Okhotskrybvod). 13. The walrus rookeries on Russkaya Koshka in the Bering Sea were described (G.P. Smirnov - Okhotskrybvod). 14. Data on the seasonal and diurnal dynamics of walrus abundance were obtained on the basis of a number of coastal rookeries in the Bering Sea (N.I. Mymrin, G.P. Smirnov, A.S. Gayevsky, A.I. Grachev, Yu.V. Klimenko - Okhotskrybvod). 15. Morphometric analysis of the linear size and proportions of the turtles from the waters separating the Commander Isls. and the Kamchatka Peninsula was carried out (A.M. Burdin - Kamchatka branch of TINRO). 16. The results of the tagging of sea otters on the Commander Isis. during 1986-1987 were summed up (V.F. Sevostyanov, N.P. Zimenko, P.A. Ryazanov, I.N. Shevchenko - Commander Scientific Group of KoTINR0). 17. Long-term data on the dynamics of sea-otter abundance and feeding on the Kurile Isis. were correlated (M.K. Maminov - TINRO). 18. The 1984-1987 data on the dynamics of sea-otter abundance in the southern part of Kamchatka were correlated (S.I. Kornev, S.M. Korneva - Kamchatrybvod). 4 SEA MAMMAL RESEARCH IN 1986-1987 by L.A. Popov (VNIRO) The research on the sea mammals of the North Pacific, carried on within the framework of the "Sea Mammals" project 02.05-61 of the USSR—USA Agreement on Cooperation in Environmental Protection in 1986-1987, were conducted in the region of the Chukchi Sea in the north and up to the Kurile Isis. and the coast of California in the south. During this period, 19 expeditions and stationary investigations (16 national, 2 Soviet—American and one American—Soviet) were carried out; the participants from the Soviet side included specialists of the sea mammal laboratories of VNIRO, TINRO, MoTINRO, KoTINRO, IBR AN SSSR, and from the American side specialists from various US universities, the Fish and Wildlife Department of Alaska, the US Department of Fish and Wildlife, the National Laboratory of Sea Mammals, the Habbs Marine Institute, etc. Cetaceans. A research expedition on the "Dobryi" whaler to the pre- Aleutian waters of the Bering Sea and the Pacific Ocean took place in October—December 1987. The research program was to cover the region of the Aleutian Isls. and Bristol Bay in order to observe the distribution of whales and, at the same time, record their abundance. The largest number of whales (finback whales, humpback whales) was encountered in Bristol Bay. There were practically no whales at all in the vicinity of the Aleutian Isis., with the exception of a small group of sperm whales in Amchitka Bay. No Atlantic right whales or blue whales were encountered. Over a period of three days, 45 gray whales were spotted in the eastern part of the Bering Sea; Minke whales were rare, and only one sei whale was encountered in the vicinity of Simushir Is. Ninety killer whales were recorded during the entire period of the expedition. During 1986-1987, aerial surveys were conducted to study the distribution and abundance of cetaceans in the coastal regions of the Sea of Okhotsk. Bowhead whales. In July 1987, forty-seven bowhead whales were encountered in Konstantin Bay, and in October they were already in Ulbansk Bay. At the beginning of June 1986, bowhead whales were seen in the vicinity of Gizhiga Bay, singly and in groups. 5 White whale (beluga). A survey of the white whale was conducted over a period of several days in August and October 1986.

The Potential for Integration of the Transport Complex of the East of Russia into the International Market of Transport Services Anna B. Bardal’ Economic Research Institute, Far Eastern Branch of RAS Khabarovsk, Russian Federation, 153,Tikhookeanskaya Street, 680042 E-mail: [email protected] ORCID: 0000-0002-9944-4714; ResearcherID: V-7615-2017 Abstract. The eastern regions of Russia are the convenient zone in which Russia cooperates with the actively developing Asian region. The key states of North-East Asia such as China, Japan, and the Republic of Korea are the largest participants in world trade at the present stage. The servicing of large- scale commodity flows with the European Union and the U.S. is provided by the market of transport services, by means of which the most effective schemes of delivery are built. Under these conditions, the transport system of the East of Russia has objective prerequisites for integration into the international transport system. The goal of our present study is to assess the potential of integration of the transport system of the Far East in the market of transport services in North-East Asia. At the same time, we assess integration opportunities with the help of dividing the territory of the East of Russia into districts based on the results of cluster analysis. Considering the achievement of the research goal, this approach is a new one. The need for division is due to the fact that the Far East is quite a large region, extremely heterogeneous in its internal composition, economic-geographical and socio-economic characteristics.

  • Sakhalin Island: Nivkh
    70 Chapter 3 Chapter 3 Sakhalin Island: Nivkh The Nivkh (or Gilyak in older literature) have traditionally inhabited the north- ern half of Sakhalin Island and adjacent regions of the mainland. They are relatively homogeneous in the cultural sense; their differences are mainly based on local adaptations to geographic environments, and the two distinct dialects, Sakhalin and mainland, are mutually intelligible. Their ethnic compo- sition is more homogeneous than that of their Tungusic-speaking Amur neigh- bors as it consists of a large core of kin groups of Nivkh origin and a minority of lineages that trace their descent to non-Nivkh ethnic ancestors, mainly those of Amur groups and Ainu. Nivkh culture, with its emphasis on sedentary fishing, is to a large extent analogous to those of their Amur and Ainu neighbors; however, the specialized maritime hunting of the coastal Nivkh was of a significance equal to fishing, and their sea-mammal hunting technology as well as the belief system empha- sizing marine animal cults connect the Nivkh with North Pacific coastal cul- tures of both sides of the Bering Strait, and archaeologically, with the maritime Okhotsk culture of the southern Sea of Okhotsk and the Old Koryak culture of northern Sea of Okhotsk. Other traits that distinguish the traditional Nivkh culture from their neighbors are aspects of their non-material culture such as corpse disposal by cremation and the alliance of three lineage units based on asymmetric connubium that contrasts with the reciprocal connubium charac- teristic for the mainland Tungus society as well as for the Amur ethnic com- plex.

Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk, Russia, (2) Sakhalin Tsunami Warning Center, Federal Service of Russia for Hydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring, Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk, Russia Institute of Marine Geology & Geophysics (the Far East Branch of Russian Academy of Sciences) carried out long wave measurements in the area of South Kuril Islands with the purpose of tsunami recording closely to the seismic active zone and study long wave spectra variability depending of weather conditions. Bottom pressure gauges were installed in several harbors of Shikotan Island, near Cape Lovtsov (north-eastern end of Kunashir Island), in the Kitoviy Bay (Iturup Island) and near Cape Van-der-Lind (Urup Island). Sakhalin Tsunami Center has a cable telemetry tsunami warning station in the Severo-Kurilsk (Paramushir Island). Two tsunamis - a remote Samoa (September 30) and nearby Simushir tsunami (January 15) were recorded by different gauges in the area of South Kuril Islands and by telemetry station in Severo-Kurilsk. To examine spectral properties of long wave oscillations at each gauge, we calculated power spectral estimation using two different data segments (both 1 day length): the period preceding the tsunami event, we identified as “normal” and selected for analysis of the background signal; the “tsunami period” included tsunami caused oscillations.

INTR.ODUCTION The Chukotsky and Bering Seas, the seas of • Okhotsk and of Japan, which was the Far Eastern Shores of the Soviet Union, cover immense areas. The multitude of animals inhabiting these seas is extremely varied. Of fish alone there are up to 800 species, among which some 200 are or can be regarded as exploitable species. Up to the present time the salmon and herring have. been of prevalent industrial importance in the Far East. The immense reserves of these fish, relative simplicity and high effectiveness of the fishing methods employed during the spawning period, simplicity of processing in- volved, excellence of quality of the finished product, all these factors appealed to industrial fishing, fish-proces- sing and fish-marketing organizations. As a result, the entire fishing industry of the Far East was until recen- tly, a passive industry --90% of the catch was obtained by means of stationary fishing implements or fishing cordage cast from the shore (such as seines and casting nets, etc.).

  • WWF-Russia Kamchatka Office Semi-Annual Review. January 2018
    WWF strongly supported the increase in fines for illegal fishing initiated by the Ministry of Agriculture. Public discussion concerning the Russian government’s draft decree ended on October 9th. The decree would set fines up to 20 times higher than current levels for some species. While we do not consider these measures to be an absolute remedy, the fine amounts will be significant enough to be noticed Sergey Rafanov, by poachers. The measures can be seen as a good the Director of the starting point for further steps to stop illegal activity. Kamchatka Bering Sea Ecoregional Office However, poaching for fish isn’t only a Kamchatka problem. The WWF-Russia Kamchatka Office and its partners have valuable experience to share. In autumn, our colleagues from WWF-Russia Barents Sea Ecoregional Office came to the peninsula to learn about Kamchatka’s anti-poaching activity on the Bolshaya River.
