  • Andronovo Problem: Studies of Cultural Genesis in the Eurasian Bronze Age
    Open Archaeology 2021; 7: 3–36 Review Stanislav Grigoriev* Andronovo Problem: Studies of Cultural Genesis in the Eurasian Bronze Age https://doi.org/10.1515/opar-2020-0123 received June 8, 2020; accepted November 28, 2020. Abstract: Andronovo culture is the largest Eurasian formation in the Bronze Age, and it had a significant impact on neighboring regions. It is the important culture for understanding many historical processes, in particular, the origins and migration of Indo-Europeans. However, in most works there is a very simplified understanding of the scientific problems associated with this culture. The history of its study is full of opposing opinions, and all these opinions were based on reliable grounds. For a long time, the existence of the Andronovo problem was caused by the fact that researchers supposed they might explain general processes by local situations. In fact, the term “Andronovo culture” is incorrect. Another term “Andronovo cultural-historical commonality” also has no signs of scientific terminology. Under these terms a large number of cultures are combined, many of which were not related to each other. In the most simplified form, they can be combined into two blocks that existed during the Bronze Age: the steppe (Sintashta, Petrovka, Alakul, Sargari) and the forest-steppe (Fyodorovka, Cherkaskul, Mezhovka). Often these cultures are placed in vertical lines with genetic continuity. However, the problems of their chronology and interaction are very complicated. By Andronovo cultures we may understand only Fyodorovka and Alakul cultures (except for its early stage); however, it is better to avoid the use of this term. Keywords: Andronovo culture, history of study, Eurasia 1 Introduction The Andronovo culture of the Bronze Age is the largest archaeological formation in the world, except for the cultures of the Scytho-Sarmatian world of the Early Iron Age.

  • Acipenser Baerii Brandt, 1869 Siberian Sturgeon Esturgeon Sibérien
    Doc. AC.16.7.2 Annex Acipenser baerii Brandt, 1869 Siberian Sturgeon Esturgeon sibérien Order: ACIPENSERIFORMES Family: ACIPENSERIDAE SUMMARY Siberian Sturgeon (Acipenser baerii) may live for up to sixty years and generally reach sexual maturity between 18 and 28 years of age, except in the Lena River where fish mature sexually around 9-12 years of age. The maximum weight recorded is 210 kg, but A. baerii usually weigh approximately 65 kg. Little information is available on the current population status for this species in China and Kazakhstan. However, the limited data available for the Russian Federation show that the spawning area has declined by up to 40% in some areas due to dam construction and increased abnormal oogenesis has been observed, probably due to chemical and nuclear water pollution. The population in China is low and economically insignificant. Catch volumes in the Russian Federation have generally declined, probably as a result of the above listed anthropogenic disturbances as well as over-fishing. However, the Russian Federation is the only country where significant levels of catches have been reported. The annual catch of A. baerii in the Ob’-Irtysh River basin decreased from 1,410 tonnes (t) in the 1930s to 11 t in 1997. Annual catches in the two other major Siberian rivers in the late 1990s were 16 t per year in the Yenisey River and 13-20 t per year in the Lena River. The Lena population of A. baerii is most commonly bred in captivity, because it completes its life cycle in freshwater and sexually matures relatively early.

  • Features of Cathode-Anion Composition of Water in the Reservoir Subject to Anthropogenic Contamination
    E3S Web of Conferences 282, 07003 (2021) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/202128207003 EFSC2021 Features of cathode-anion composition of water in the reservoir subject to anthropogenic contamination M.A. Derkho1, L.G. Mukhamedyarova1, D.Yu. Nokhrin2,*, A.V. Zhivetina1, and G.V. Meshcheryakova1 1South-Ural State Agrarian University, Troitsk, Russian Federation 2FSBI of HE Chelyabinsk State University, Chelyabinsk, Russian Federation Abstract. The assessment of the ionic composition and water quality in the Troitsky reservoir of Chelyabinsk region (Russia) was given. Water samples were taken from headstream (station 1), central (station 2) and dam (station 3) parts of the reservoir from the average level in spring (May), summer (July), autumn (September) in the period of 2019-2020. It was established that the mineral composition of water and its ecological safety depends on the season of the year and the movement of the water mass from the headstream to the dam. The highest level of ions is found in spring water samples due to flood water ingress, the smallest - in summer and autumn due to their inclusion in biota life processes. Maximum ion levels are present in water samples from the headwaters and decreases during the water movement towards the dam. In terms of metals' index for chromium (VI), manganese (excluding the year of 2019), iron and nickel, water corresponds to the “slightly polluted” category; cadmium and lead — “clean”; aluminum, copper, and zinc - “clean”. By the WPI magnitude regardless of the season of the year and the sampling point, the water belongs to the 3rd quality class “moderately polluted”. Being ampholytes, lead, aluminum, and zinc in water with a weakly alkaline medium reaction increase their reactivity and due to this directly affect not only the concentration of each other, but also the level of iron, nickel, and copper.
