The event was attended by eight interns (graduate students and staff) from universities, research institutes and fisheries institutions of Borok, St. Petersburg, Syktyvkar, Tyumen, Yekaterinburg and Novosibirsk.
Global warming increases the aggressiveness of soil fungal pathogens, disrupts the structure of local microbiota, and reduces the suppressive capacity of agroecosystems.
Despite the fact that grooming has been studied for many decades, the extent to which its structure depends on the animal's circumstances has remained unclear.
The results are important for predicting ecosystem resilience, preserving biodiversity, and developing ecologically sound approaches to managing natural and agricultural areas.
The expedition conducted visual counts of seals along the entire shoreline of Lake Baikal and assessed the distribution of the animals in areas with varying levels of anthropogenic pressure.
Over the course of 3 weeks, a team of biologists deployed 50 cameras using a specially developed methodology, detailed in the CAMMON Photo Monitoring Program, published by the Central Forest Reserve.
De Winton noted its unusual morphological features when describing the species: "The skull is unusually square and short, and unlike any other gerbil known to me."
This publication is recommended for geographers, biologists, ecologists, and a wide range of readers interested in Russia's natural environment, its biodiversity, and conservation prospects.
Siberian parasitologists are looking forward to welcoming their colleagues from September 15-17, 2026, at the Institute of Systematics and Ecology of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, located at 11 Frunze Street.
2026 marks the 70th anniversary of the birth of Maxim Grigorievich Sinitsyn, PhD in Biology, the founder and first director of the Kologrivsky Forest Nature Reserve. To commemorate this anniversary, a scientific and practical seminar on the study of protected areas will be held on March 24, 2026, at the Center for Ecological and Practical Forestry of the Russian Academy of Sciences (Moscow). The seminar program will include reminiscences from Maxim Grigorievich's colleagues and scientific papers on the monitoring and study of protected natural complexes.
The A.N. Severtsov Institute of Ecology and Evolution of the Russian Academy of Sciences (IEE RAS), the I.D. Papanin Institute of Biology of Inland Waters of the Russian Academy of Sciences (IBW RAS), and the P.G. Demidov Yaroslavl State University invite you to participate in the Seventh International Symposium "Alien Species in the Holarctic. Borok-VII."
We invite you to the IV All-Russian conference with international participation "Mechanisms of Microorganism Adaptation to Various Environmental Conditions – MICRAD-2026," which will be held from August 24 to 29, 2026, in Irkutsk and at the Uyuga tourist center on the shore of Lake Baikal.
We invite you to participate in the 25 International Scientific and Practical Conference "Problems of botany of South Siberia and Mongolia". In 2026, the organizers decided to hold the anniversary meeting in person during the summer field season 20 – 23 of July at the Altai State University internship center in the Altai Republic.
The conference "Biological Morphogenesis: Mechanisms of Morphogenetic Processes, Intra- and Interscale Interactions in Developing Systems, and the Potential and Limitations of Formation" opens a series of scientific events dedicated to the 110th anniversary of the publication of W. D'Arcy Thompson's 1917 book "On Growth and Form." It will be held November 11–12, 2026, at the A.A. Borissiak Paleontological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
