  • The Influence of Climatic Change and Human Activity on Erosion Processes in Sub-Arid Watersheds in Southern East Siberia
    HYDROLOGICAL PROCESSES Hydrol. Process. 17, 3181–3193 (2003) Published online in Wiley InterScience (www.interscience.wiley.com). DOI: 10.1002/hyp.1382 The influence of climatic change and human activity on erosion processes in sub-arid watersheds in southern East Siberia Leonid M. Korytny,* Olga I. Bazhenova, Galina N. Martianova and Elena A. Ilyicheva Institute of Geography, Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 1 Ulanbatorskaya St., Irkutsk, 664033, Russia Abstract: A LUCIFS model variant is presented that represents the influence of climate and land use change on fluvial systems. The study considers trends of climatic characteristics (air temperature, annual precipitation totals, rainfall erosion index, aridity and continentality coefficients) for the steppe and partially wooded steppe watersheds of the south of East Siberia (the Yenisey River macro-watershed). It also describes the influence of these characteristics on erosion processes, one indicator of which is the suspended sediment yield. Changes in the river network structure (the order of rivers, lengths, etc.) as a result of agricultural activity during the 20th century are investigated by means of analysis of maps of different dates for one of the watersheds, that of the Selenga River, the biggest tributary of Lake Baikal. The study reveals an increase of erosion process intensity in the first two-thirds of the century in the Selenga River watershed and a reduction of this intensity in the last third of the century, both in the Selenga River watershed and in most of the other watersheds of the study area. Copyright 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. KEY WORDS LUCIFS; Yenisey watershed; fluvial system; climate change; land use change; river network structure; erosion processes.

  • Significance of Protected Areas for the Pallas's
    Nature Conservation Research. Заповедная наука 2017. 2(Suppl. 1): 113–124 DOI: 10.24189/ncr.2017.019 SIGNIFICANCE OF PROTECTED AREAS FOR THE PALLAS’S CAT (OTOCOLOBUS MANUL: FELIDAE) CONSERVATION IN RUSSIA Anna N. Barashkova1, Vadim E. Kirilyuk2, Ilya E. Smelansky1 1Sibecocenter, Russia 2Daursky State Nature Biosphere Reserve, Russia e-mail: [email protected] Received: 12.04.2017 The Pallas’s cat, or Manul, Otocolobus manul, belongs to the small felines. In Russia this species is located at the northern periphery of its range. Potential habitats of this species within its Russian range’s part have been high- lighted on the base of remote sensing data, topographic maps and digital cartographic models. Maps of the Pallas’s cat’s records in Russia have been compiled using literature data, authors’ own data and information provided by contributors of the online database «Small Wild Сats of Eurasia». We have shown the representation of potential habitats of the Pallas’s cat and its actual registrations within Protected Areas of Russia. The total area of potential habitats for this species in Russia is assessed as 145,150 km2. The presence of Manul is confirmed for five regions of Russia: Republic of Altai, Republic of Tyva, Republic of Buryatia, Krasnoyarsk Krai, Trans-Baikal Krai. The registration of the species’ records mainly corresponds to the location of its potential habitats. The main categories of both federal and regional Russian Protected Areas cover 10.8% (13.5% taken with the buffer zones) of the total area of potential habitats for the Pallas’s cat. The significance of each Protected Area for Manul conservation has been considered in detail.

It is my great pleasure that so many experts and representatives, including young scientist and students, have attended this Semi- nar from the leading Russian and CIS research institutes, public and international organizations, research centers and universi- ties all the way to Irkutsk. SAC is determined to address the topic of global health issues, since this is becoming more and more important today, mostly due to the fast spread and the impact on humans, and also due to the possible bioterrorism. This has been evidenced by the recent emerging global spread of swine flu . At the previous SAC Seminar two years ago, SAC selected the subject of nuclear renaissance. This has been evidenced lately, since the number of newly nuclear power introducing countries becomes over fifty this year, whereas the number of already introduced countries is thirty one. Also some years ago, we took up the topic on PET technology, and this has been still stimulating the research on PET in Russia and other countries.

Sochava Institute of Geography Siberian Branch of Russian Academy of Sciences, Irkutsk 664033, Russia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 13 July 2018; Accepted: 13 August 2018; Published: 16 August 2018 Abstract: Lake Baikal is located on the southern tableland of East Siberian Russia. The west coast of the lake has vast forest resources and excellent ecological conditions, and this area and the Mongolian Plateau constitute an important ecological security barrier in northern China. Land-use/cover change is an important manifestation of regional human activities and ecosystem evolution. This paper uses Irkutsk city, a typical city on the West Bank of Lake Baikal, as a case study area. Based on three phases of Landsat remote-sensing image data, the land-use/cover change pattern and change process are analyzed and the natural factors and socioeconomic factors are combined to reveal driving forces through the partial least squares regression (PLSR) model.

The development conditions and factors of fluvial processes are considered and the role of cryogenic processes in the increasing activity of water flows is emphasized. The interdecadal dynamic cycles of the erosion-accumulative processes are revealed. A quantitative assessment of soil loss from erosion on agricultural land in the forest-steppe basins was carried out. We made an assessment of the plane deformation of the upper course of the Lena river (Siberian platform) and Irkut (Baikal rift zone and the Irkutsk-Cheremkhovo plain) using cartographic sources of different times, aerial photographs, and satellite imagery.
