Hydrological risks in Western Siberia under the changing climate and anthropogenic influences conditions
The article considers hydrological hazards and risks, the dynamics of which are connected to climate change and anthropogenic influence on water bodies and their watershed areas. The hydrological consequences of climate change in Western Siberia are characterized by a high level of spatial and temporal heterogeneity and wide diversity. The authors determine the most dangerous hydrological phenomena with potentially high-risk levels, the causes of…
West Siberian palsa peatlands
Palsa peatlands occupy extensive areas in Western Siberia which is one of the most paludified flat lowlands of the world. Climatic changes in Western Siberia are more dramatic compared with other northern regions, and changes in palsa landscapes are more notable due to the severe continental climate here. The distribution, peculiarities and climate-indication capacities of West Siberian palsas are poorly known outside Russia. Thus, Western Siberi…
The modern hydrological regime of the northern part of Western Siberia from in situ and satellite observations
We studied the hydrological regime of the rivers Poluy, Nadym, Pur and Taz in the Northern part of Western Siberia. Compared to their large neighbours – Ob′ and Yenisey – these four rivers are characterised by more homogeneous natural conditions. This makes them a reliable indicator of climate variability in the Arctic part of Western Siberia. First we present seasonal and interannual variability of river discharge from historical observations. N…
Western Siberia wetlands as indicator and regulator of climate change on the global scale
Western Siberia is a unique bog region. Siberian peatlands have been a major sink of atmospheric carbon since the last deglaciation and, on the other hand, in some epochs – like the present – they are the most powerful source of methane emission. About 104 Mha of Russian peatlands are located in Western Siberia, which consists almost completely of pristine peatland ecosystems. This paper considers the role of the Western Siberian peatlands in a g…
