Using modern molecular genetic methods, specialists analyzed the samples and obtained the following result: all the animals studied are Caspian gray voles.
In good weather, beavers can be active for ten hours or more, even during the day. On rainy days, they spend more time on land, and in hot weather, they spend more time in the water.
The memory of the Great Patriotic War is a key point of Russian historical memory, uniting our society and developing spiritual values that enable us to resist Nazism.
The event marked an important milestone in the development of scientific and educational cooperation and the popularization of environmental topics among students and faculty in the region.
Dear colleagues, we congratulate you on the Ecologists’ Day - your professional holiday celebrated in Russia on the same day as the World Environment Day.
Researchers at the Population Ecology Laboratory of the IEE RAS have described for the first time the daily activity of the yellow ground squirrel during the pre-hibernation period in a natural population.
The exhibition will feature real biological objects. Organizers warn: particularly sensitive viewers, as well as those with a pronounced phobia of worms and insects, may want to refrain.
Morphological and molecular variation in Ornithomya avicularia was researched using specimens from seven populations spanning Europe, Western Siberia, and the Russian Far East.
Red deer are extremely shy and difficult to see, so male calls were recorded using automatic sound traps set in the habitats of three different populations.
Unfortunately many countries are still strongly affected by the Corona virus; there are no regular flights and the possibility to gather together many people. We consider it would be unreasonable to hold the Workshop this year. Instead, we want to hold it next year, most likely between the 20th and 30th of May 2021.
Please save the date!
We hope that you and your families are as well as you can be during these challenging times.
The application of documents for post-graduate studies in A.N.Severtsov Institute of Ecology and Evolution RAS in 2020 will take place from 1st to 25th of September. The entrance exams will be held from 1 to 23 October. The results of postgraduate enrollment will be declared from November 1, 2020.
