Arctic is real people, with their own history and experience © Dzhuraev, Ildar I., Head of the Taimyr Dolgan- Nenets Municipal District. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. Ildar Dzhuraev told the Journal about his life in the Arctic, work as a top manager, his professional achievements in the management of a municipal institution and plans for 2015. He presented his assessment of the development of the North, emphasizing the uniqueness of Taimyr, where almost all mineral resources could be found. He noted that Taimyr was inhabited by really strong- willed people with high potential and ability to work, who were concerned about the problems of the Arctic and were willing to contribute to its development. Keywords: Ildar Dzhuraev, the Taimyr Dolgan-Nenets Municipal District, the life in the Arctic, municipal management, social infrastructure, development plans, the resources of Taimyr, the potential of the Arctic 1. How did you get into the Arctic (have you born here, moved here after graduation or because of work)? We have so many newcomers here on the Taimyr. People move because of various reasons, everybody has his own reason. Some people are in search for money, the others move because of family... My first visit of the Taimyr Peninsula was in February 1992. I came here as a Chief of the Medical Facility — doctor of the 493rd long-distance radio-navigation (station, northern chain) group (in the Arctic). I was transferred here for military service. Later, in 1997 I headed the division of the Civil Defense and Emergency Service of the Taimyr Dolgan-Nenets district (that time it was the Headquarters of the Defense Administration of the Taimyr Autonomous District). In general, we have created one of the best teams of rescue service on the Taimyr Peninsula and in the Arctic. In 2009, I was a Chief of the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations of the Krasnoyarsk Territory and had to move to Krasnoyarsk. Now I live on the Taimyr Peninsula. And I’m so glad to be lucky to come back here. The North does not leave anyone indifferent. Maybe that's why it is so hard to go away and so hard to forget these lands. I would Arctic and North. 2015. N 20 5 say it is impossible to forget. Impressive northern nature, the white silence, thousands of kilometers of unexplored land and nomadic life... Northern tundra is really fascinating. Northern people make the Far North especially great and different. They have certain strength of will, character, inner core... No wonder why people of arts are so fond of chanting mentality and life of northerners. Of course, modern life here is not so severe and dramatic, but, nevertheless, Taimyr people are hardworking, friendly and open-minded and they are wholeheartedly adhered to their land. Thus people come here to stay just for a few years and they often stay here for all their lives. 2. How long have you been working as a manager, a leader of the subject of the RF and a head of a municipality? September 8, 2013: Taimyr elections to the Regional Council of Deputies. Later, on the 13th of September deputies elected me a Chairman of the Regional Council of Deputies. According to the Chapter of the Taimyr, its Chairman has to be the Head of the Taimyr Dolgan-Nenets Municipal District of the Krasnoyarsk Territory. It is such a great honor to be the Head of the largest municipal district of Krasnoyarsk Territory and Russia (879.9 thousand km2). At the same time, it is such a great responsibility. When you are trusted by the whole area, it makes you take a fresh look at it. A range of tasks and goals is getting wider and new priorities reveal. After all, the life, welfare of residents and development of the area is dependent on the effectiveness of selected policies and decisions. Also I had to take part in emergency response activities for several times. For example, I was in charge of rescue operations with the threat of flooding the village of Sands Lewinsky, the accident with the ship "Nekrasov”, evacuation of people from snow drifts and the accident at the Sayano- Shushenskaya hydropower plant. Maybe it may sound too loud, but I know how important it is to live up to people's expectations. I hope our team will implement all development plans and contribute to the advanced development of the area. Taimyr is unique not only because of its natural and climatic conditions, but also because of its history and rich cultural heritage. 3. Could you tell us, please, about your experience, professional achievements as a manager of the area and municipality in the RFAZ? If we are talking about the achievements in the management of the region, first of all, it is necessary to clarify what we are talking about the enormous amount of work done by deputies, heads of settlements, municipal governments, business leaders and civil society organizations. Some projects were not destined to be realized without their involvement and active participation. Every solved problem has real people behind. We are working to improve the living conditions of the Arctic and North. 2015. N 20 6 population and to develop the social infrastructure of the area.

  • LNG Update: Frozen 3? Keeping an Eye on Budgeting Process For
    December 5, 2019 Export Infrastructure Michael Webber, CFA Export Infrastructure 646-993-0693 LNG Update: Frozen 3? Keeping An Eye [email protected] Export Infrastructure On Budgeting Process For Arctic 2 Greg Wasikowski, CFA Funding Hot Potato May Be A Drag On Operational Timeline 646-993-0694 [email protected] Who Picks Up The Check For Arctic 2? The timeline for Novatek’s high-profile Arctic Export Infrastructure LNG 2 (19.8mpta) may have hit a modest speedbump, as the ~$1.9BN request to help Chris Tsung, CFA 646-998-8290 finance critical aspects of Arctic 2 [the Utrenneye LNG terminal on Gydan peninsula (page [email protected] 4), and reloading terminals in Murmansk (for European cargoes) and Kamchatka (for Asia cargoes)] are absent from Russia’s 2020 draft budget. While the project has Use already reached a positive FID, and is clearly a national priority – we think it’s worth watching whether any squabble over the ultimate funding source ends up delaying its operational timeline (which is already ambitious). The primary options appeared to be (1) the state budget (absent), or (2) funding from the ~$124B National Wealth Fund, which appears to be a more complicated and competitive process (below). Considering that Arctic 2 is being used as a fulcrum to revitalize/create local content industries - For including the Zvvezda shipyard for the required LNG carriers (Arc-7s or similar - which cost ~$350MM each in Korea) and some local fabrication of key equipment, we ultimately expect continued sovereign support. However, given narrower pricing/economics and (potentially) some budgeting hot-potato, we think its worth watching the Arctic 2 operational timeline.

E-mail: [email protected] a https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6377-1852, b https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3117-5554 Abstract. The purpose of this work is to assess the main parameters of the Chukotka and Kolyma glaciers (small forms of glaciation, SFG): their size and volume, and changes therein over time. The point as to whether these SFG can be considered glaciers or are in transition into, for example, rock glaciers is also presented. SFG areas were defined from the early 1980s (data from the catalogue of the glaciers compiled by R.V. Sedov) to 2005, and up to 2017: these data were retrieved from sat- Key words: ellite images. The maximum of the SGF reduction occurred in the Chantalsky Range, Iskaten Range, Chukotka Peninsula, and in the northern part of Chukotka Peninsula. The smallest retreat by this time relates to the gla- Kolyma Highlands, ciers of the southern part of the peninsula. Glacier volumes are determined by the formula of S.A. satellite image, Nikitin for corrie glaciers, based on in-situ volume measurements, and by our own method: the av- climate change, erage glacier thickness is calculated from isogypsum patterns, constructed using DEMs of individu- glacier reduction, al glaciers based on images taken from a drone during field work, and using ArcticDEM for others.

  • Title of Thesis: ABSTRACT CLASSIFYING BIAS
    ABSTRACT Title of Thesis: CLASSIFYING BIAS IN LARGE MULTILINGUAL CORPORA VIA CROWDSOURCING AND TOPIC MODELING Team BIASES: Brianna Caljean, Katherine Calvert, Ashley Chang, Elliot Frank, Rosana Garay Jáuregui, Geoffrey Palo, Ryan Rinker, Gareth Weakly, Nicolette Wolfrey, William Zhang Thesis Directed By: Dr. David Zajic, Ph.D. Our project extends previous algorithmic approaches to finding bias in large text corpora. We used multilingual topic modeling to examine language-specific bias in the English, Spanish, and Russian versions of Wikipedia. In particular, we placed Spanish articles discussing the Cold War on a Russian-English viewpoint spectrum based on similarity in topic distribution. We then crowdsourced human annotations of Spanish Wikipedia articles for comparison to the topic model. Our hypothesis was that human annotators and topic modeling algorithms would provide correlated results for bias. However, that was not the case. Our annotators indicated that humans were more perceptive of sentiment in article text than topic distribution, which suggests that our classifier provides a different perspective on a text’s bias.
