  • Chronicles of Nature Calendar, a Long-Term and Large-Scale Multitaxon Database on Phenology
    www.nature.com/scientificdata OPEN Chronicles of nature calendar, DATA DESCRIPTOR a long-term and large-scale multitaxon database on phenology Otso Ovaskainen et al.# We present an extensive, large-scale, long-term and multitaxon database on phenological and climatic variation, involving 506,186 observation dates acquired in 471 localities in Russian Federation, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, Belarus and Kyrgyzstan. The data cover the period 1890–2018, with 96% of the data being from 1960 onwards. The database is rich in plants, birds and climatic events, but also includes insects, amphibians, reptiles and fungi. The database includes multiple events per species, such as the onset days of leaf unfolding and leaf fall for plants, and the days for frst spring and last autumn occurrences for birds. The data were acquired using standardized methods by permanent staf of national parks and nature reserves (87% of the data) and members of a phenological observation network (13% of the data). The database is valuable for exploring how species respond in their phenology to climate change. Large-scale analyses of spatial variation in phenological response can help to better predict the consequences of species and community responses to climate change. Background & Summary Phenological dynamics have been recognised as one of the most reliable bio-indicators of species responses to ongoing warming conditions1. Together with other adaptive mechanisms (e.g. changes in the spatial distribution and physiological adaptations), phenological change is a key mechanism by which plants and animals adapt to a changing world2,3. Many studies have documented that in the northern hemisphere, spring events have become earlier whereas autumn events are occurring later than before, mostly due to rising temperatures4–6.

A possibly new lichenicolous Toninia species (on Parmelina tiliacea) and a species of Arthonia (on Cladonia) with 1–2-septate ascospores resembling poorly known A. lepidophila are described, illustrated and discussed. Dactylospora suburceolata is reported new to Russia and Asia, growing on a new host species Mycobilimbia carneoalbida.

New distributional data as well as brief analyses of old records for fourteen species described earlier are provided from both Palaearctic and Nearctic material. S. (N.) milleporus Casey, 1884 (= sectilifer Casey, 1884) is revalidated as a species propria. S.

  • Global and Local Trends in Development of the Siberian City of Krasnoyarsk
    ISSN 2039-2117 (online) Mediterranean Journal of Social Sciences Vol 6 No 3 S5 ISSN 2039-9340 (print) MCSER Publishing, Rome-Italy June 2015 Global and Local Trends in Development of the Siberian City of Krasnoyarsk Maria I. Ilbeykina Maria A. Kolesnik Natalia M. Libakova Ekaterina A. Sertakova Alexandra A. Sitnikova Siberian Federal University, Russian Federation Email: [email protected] Doi:10.5901/mjss.2015.v6n3s5p241 Abstract This article looks at the modern day cultural geography of Krasnoyarsk Krai (Central Siberia, Russia). The article is based on research into the urban image of the Siberian city of Krasnoyarsk and analyzes both its architecture and symbolic representation. Multiple studies suggest that two trends equally affect city development in this day and age: they are globalization and regionalization. By applying semiotic analysis to the city’s flagship pieces of architecture and content analysis to local and foreign media covering the city’s most prominent and newsworthy events, we were able to establish that Krasnoyarsk’s search for self-identity at the turn of the 1990’s was most prominently expressed in its visual image and by the early 21st century was overtaken by globalization trends in architecture; whereas the city’s mindset image was shaped overall by two trends: unabated foreign media interest in the area’s unique features and local media attention to the day-to-day life typical of any city. The main development resource for Krasnoyarsk is the people living in the city. Keywords: urban studies, Siberian city, Krasnoyarsk, Krasnoyarsk architecture, image of Krasnoyarsk, mass media, social media, content analysis 1.

The environmental community was expecting 2020 to be a "super-year," a period to summarize the results of conservation work worldwide and make plans for the future. But WE LEARNED A LOT IN 2020: our planet summarized it for us by sending a MAYDAY and indicating the system was seriously flawed. Although early into the pandemic, we often heard that nature got WORKING ONLINE AND WITH VERY cleaner, we can see now that it has been yet another blow to the environment. © Marina Khrapova / WWF-Russia Russia will remember the year 2020 for LIMITED RESOURCES, PREPARING FOR environmental disasters near Norilsk, in the Nenets Autonomous Okrug, Kamchatka, and Khabarovsky Province, which have already prompted changes to the environmental control measures. In 2020, forest and tundra fires reignited with EXTRA RISKS, FINDING UNEXPECTED a vengeance: it was the hottest Arctic summer in history and yet another red flag. We at WWF-Russia worked remotely for the most part of 2020. Despite the pandemic, we managed to complete our main tasks and did not pull a plug on any SOLUTIONS. BUT THE MOST of our environmental programmes. During the summer, we released eight bison into the wild in the Republic of North Ossetia–Alania; they joined the herd that had settled there two years prior.
