"Неопределенности и вероятности изменения климата в России и воздействий на вечную мерзлоту"
Опубликован заключительный отчет по совместной исследовательской программе "Неопределенности и вероятности изменения климата в России и воздействий на вечную мерзлоту", выполненной в рамках совместного проекта Великобритании и России в области изменения климата. В работе принимала участие объединенная группа ученых из Государственного Гидрологического Института и Центра Хэдли Метеорологической Службы Великобритании. В отчете описываются область исследований, проведенная работа, результаты, а также приводятся выводы и рекомендации. Полный текст отчета и его резюме можно скачать (см. сноски внизу.) В результате партнерства, возникшего и укрепившегося за период совместной работы, был сделан ряд презентаций и публикаций, а также получены результаты, которые будут продолжать приносить взаимную пользу и после завершения проекта.

NEW! Research Programme Final Report
Permafrost, soil carbon balance and sustainability under climate change
The UK-Russia Climate Change Collaboration research programme, undertaken by a joint team of scientists from the State Hydrological Institute in Russia and the UK Meteorological Office Hadley Centre, has published their final report. This presents the scope of the work, the activities carried out, their findings, and conclusions and recommendations. The full report and summary are available to download (below). The partnership that has been created and built through this work has led to several joint publications and presentations, and has yielded benefits that will be sustained beyond the end of the project.

Climate Impacts in Russia: Carbon Storage and Exchange
This review aims to synthesise the most recent literature on climate change impacts on the terrestrial ecosystem in Russia. The emphasis is on changes in the carbon balance of the region, due to thawing of permafrost, drying of the soil, expansion of the boreal forest into tundra areas or forest degradation as a result of increased disturbances or an expansion of agriculture.
The general outline of this review is as follows. Section 1 provides an introduction. In section 2, we provide a synthesis of recent and projected changes in climate for the Russian Federation, including changes in climatic extremes. Section 3 reviews the latest literature on changes in permafrost and the size of the soil carbon pool in permafrost regions, while section 4 focuses more in particular on peatlands and wetlands. In section 5 we discuss the potential impact of climate change on the growth and extent of the boreal forest in Russia, including the occurrence of natural disturbances such as forest fires, and the associated impacts on the forest carbon pool. Section 6 reviews the impacts on agricultural suitability, food security and the influence of agriculture on atmospheric greenhouse gas (GHG) concentrations. In the last two sections of this report we will summarise the projected changes in climate, permafrost, forests and agriculture and the consequences for the carbon dynamics in the region, and provide recommendations for further research.
