This collection presents the proceedings of the 7th All-Russian Scientific Conference with International Participation "Ecosystem Dynamics in the Holocene," which took place at Perm State National Research University.
Losiny Ostrov is a unique nature reserve in the middle of a metropolis. How does it “feel”? What problems does it experience? What animals and plants live there? How should people behave so as not to disturb it?
Most of the Bystrinsky Nature Park's water bodies are known to be home to specific salmonids. Understanding their diversity, evolutionary history, population status, and potential risks required specialized scientific research.
A detailed study of crustacean biodiversity in the mangrove swamps of the Cần Giờ Mangrove Biosphere Reserve, located near Ho Chi Minh City in southern Vietnam, revealed a high species diversity of tanaids.
Researchers from the IEE RAS, the Mara-Meru Nature Reserve in Kenya, and LMSU have described for the first time the vocal repertoires of adult and cub wild cheetahs from Kenya.
Radiography is one of the most promising methods for non-invasively determining the age of animals. In this study, the researchers applied it for the first time to live rodents from a wild population.
A new study, conducted by researchers from the TIINRD SB RAS and the IEE RAS, summarizes the results of nearly thirty years of fieldwork in the region (1993–2022).
Many soil animals, superficially similar, actually belong to different species. These so-called cryptic or "hidden" species play an important role in soil functioning but remain undetected by traditional research methods.
IEE RAS staff presented their papers at the "Evolutionary Biology" section. Both papers generated considerable interest and discussion, as they examined the survival characteristics of animals in urban environments.
Registration is open for events that will take place at the A.N. Severtsov Institute of Ecology and Evolution of the Russian Academy of Sciences (IEE RAS) on Friday, October 10, as part of the NAUKA 0+ festival.
From August 18, 2025, the acceptance of documents from applicants to postgraduate studies will begin and last until September 5. In the second half of September, the admission of entrance exams will be organized.
From September 14 to 16, the Sirius University of Science and Technology will hold the International Scientific Conference on Ecology and Climate Change — ISCECC. The forum will bring together scientists, experts, government officials, business representatives, and environmental leaders from the BRICS countries, the CIS, Africa, Asia, and other regions.
The A.N. Severtsov Institute of Ecology and Evolution of the Russian Academy of Sciences (IEE RAS) and the All-Russian Research Institute of Fisheries and Oceanography (VNIRO) invite you to take part in the scientific Conference "Microplastics as the Newest Toxicant of Vertebrates".
The "Word Formula" competition is for authors, popularizers of science and journalists who create fascinating and reliable content about science for a wide audience. For those who are able to tell about complex scientific phenomena, research and discoveries in a truthful, interesting and accessible way.
What will need to be assessed: types of sounds (natural, anthropogenic, sounds of human presence), affective perception (pleasantness, eventfulness, chaos/calmness, etc.), general assessment of the environment, its adequacy to the purpose of the territory.
