The paper analyzes the condition of electrical grids in the west of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia); data sampled for the last 10 years. It demonstrates the geographic location of grids, which defines the scale of the study. Technical indicators are presented for 10 years; they reflect an increase in the fixed assets. The paper derives mathematical models of the wear of transmission equipment used in the western grids. It proves that the condition of equipment will deteriorate further unless its maintenance is properly funded. The paper analyzes the prospects of electrical grids in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). It presents a program for local energy optimization. The costs associated with five alternative development scenarios are calculated and presented in a tabular format. 1 Introduction 30% of the total heat in the Republic.

  • Chapter 7. Cities of the Russian North in the Context of Climate Change
    ? chapter seven Cities of the Russian North in the Context of Climate Change Oleg Anisimov and Vasily Kokorev Introduction In addressing Arctic urban sustainability, one has to deal with the com- plex interplay of multiple factors, such as governance and economic development, demography and migration, environmental changes and land use, changes in the ecosystems and their services, and climate change.1 While climate change can be seen as a factor that exacerbates existing vulnerabilities to other stressors, changes in temperatures, precipitation, snow accumulation, river and lake ice, and hydrological conditions also have direct implications for Northern cities. Climate change leads to a reduction in the demand for heating energy, on one hand, and heightens concerns about the fate of the infrastruc- ture built upon thawing permafrost, on the other. Changes in snowfall are particularly important and have direct implications for the urban economy, because, together with heating costs, expenses for snow removal from streets, airport runways, roofs, and ventilation spaces underneath buildings standing on pile foundations built upon perma- frost constitute the bulk of a city’s maintenance budget during the long cold period of the year. Many cities are located in river valleys and are prone to fl oods that lead to enormous economic losses, inju- ries, and in some cases human deaths. The severity of the northern climate has a direct impact on the regional migration of labor. Climate could thus potentially be viewed as an inexhaustible public resource that creates opportunities for sustainable urban development (Simp- 142 | Oleg Anisimov and Vasily Kokorev son 2009). Long-term trends show that climate as a resource is, in fact, becoming more readily available in the Russian North, notwith- standing the general perception that globally climate change is one of the greatest challenges facing humanity in the twenty-fi rst century.

  • Passage Through Siberia a River Cruise Along the Mighty River Lena to the Arctic Aboard the MS Mikhail Svetlov 18Th August to 2Nd SEPTEMBER 2015 Scottintsy
    PASSAGE THROUGH SIBERIA A river cruise along the mighty River Lena to the Arctic aboard the MS Mikhail Svetlov 18TH AUGUST TO 2ND SEPTEMBER 2015 Scottintsy he vast untouched regions of Siberia offer a unique travel experience for the genuine traveller. The scarcity of roads and railways means thatT the most common method of transportation is by river. The Lena, one of the mightiest rivers in the Russian Federation, flows through the Yakutia-Sakha Republic in north-east Siberia into the Arctic Ocean. During this unique river cruise we will sail through unspoiled natural scenery, taking a short detour to the Lena Pillars National Park before continuing downstream to where the river meets the Arctic Ocean at the polar harbour of Tiksi before heading back to Yakutsk. From the comfort of your floating hotel, the MS Mikhail Svetlov, you will see the landscape slowly change from verdant taiga to polar tundra and enjoy the magical “white nights” in a place where the sun barely sets in summer. One of the most fascinating aspects of the cruise will be the opportunity to visit the people in riverside settlements along the way. Their culture, lifestyle and language will be a constant source of wonder especially their ability to thrive in the most hostile of environments. During the cruise there will be a series of fascinating onboard lectures on the former USSR, icon painting, relations between Russia and her neighbours and Russia’s great rivers. Itinerary Highlights • “White nights” in the Arctic Circle • The legendary Lena Pillars • Unspoiled tundra and taiga scenery • The Lena River Delta and the Arctic Ocean • Ethnographical open-air museum in Sottintsy • Authentic folklore performances Yakutian Children Tundra Wildflowers www.noble-caledonia.co.uk Day 9 Tiksi.

  • Co-Option in Siberia: the Case of Diamonds and the Vilyuy Sakha1,2
    CO-OPTION IN SIBERIA: THE CASE OF DIAMONDS AND THE VILYUY SAKHA1,2 Susan A. Crate Institute of Environmental Sciences, Geography, and Havighurst Center for Russian and Post-Soviet Studies, Miami University, Oxford, Ohio 45056 Abstract: A specialist on the Vilyuy Sakha, a native non-Russian people of north- eastern Siberia, Russia, examines the public health and environmental challenges threat- ening the livelihood of the group. The paper presents a case study of political activism among the Vilyuy Sakha in the immediate post-Soviet period, as regional citizens were able to gain access to information on the pollution caused by diamond mining and other forms of industrial development. The demand for public health and environmental infor- mation, and mobilization against proposals for new mine development, emerged rapidly during the post-Soviet period, but disappeared almost as suddenly in the late 1990s. This paper explores the reasons for the disappearance of this evolving citizens’ environmental movement, arguing that a major cause was co-option by elite diamond interests. 1The following case study is based on the author’s last 12 years of work and research in the Vilyuy River regions of the western Sakha Republic, Russia. In 1991 and 1992, the author performed a contempo- rary analysis of the Sakha traditional summer festival, yhyakh, which comprised the field work for her mas- ter’s degree in folklore from UNC-Chapel Hill. In 1993, she studied the indigenous Sakha language with support from an IREX on-site language training grant. In 1994, the author received a two-year grant (1994– 1995 inclusive) from the John D.
