The choice of the object of study is associated with the rarity of the species in the region and its poor knowledge base. Bohemian sedge was registered in the region for the first time only 45 years ago and is currently known from 11 localities situated in two administrative districts (Vytegorsky and Cherepovetsky). All records are concentrated only in the western part of the region, where the species is found in the coastal areas of two reservoirs of the Volga-Baltic waterway and two disappearing lakes. Findings of the species fall within the boundaries of 6 squares of grid mapping adopted in Atlas Florae Europaeae. The life form of the species is defined as a loose turf-forming perennial polycarpic herbaceous plant with self-orthotropic non-succulent assimilate shoots. C. bohemica is found along the banks and shallows of karst lakes, flood zones of reservoirs, and floating peatlands. The species prefers sandy, sandy-stony or silty soils, and a changeable-level hydrological regime. In localities known in the region (as well as in other parts of the range), the species may not occur for some time but later appear copiously, showing a short burst of abundance. The species is included in the Red Data Book of the Vologda Region with the 2/VU/II conservation status. C. bohemica was recorded within the boundaries of three protected areas (Darvinskiy State Natural Biosphere Reserve, hydrological natural reserves (zakaznik’s) “Kushtozersky” and “Shimozersky”). The necessary protection measures for the species include control and monitoring of the state of the populations identified in the region and targeted surveys for new places of its growth, as well as further studies of its ecology and, if necessary, introduction measures.","PeriodicalId":198921,"journal":{"name":"Transactions of Papanin Institute for Biology of Inland Waters RAS","volume":"138 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116348602","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First of all, these are seafood, fish and canned fish. In this study, the concentrations of Hg in the muscles of different fish species from the water bodies of the Yaroslavl province were determined. The average values of mercury content range from 0.03 to 0.41 mg/kg wet weight. The recorded levels of mercury accumulation correspond or are close to the previously obtained values in the muscles of fish from freshwater reservoirs of the European part of Russia and European states. The species-specificity of the Hg accumulation process, its dependence on trophic specialization and size-weight characteristics of fish, as well as on the type of reservoir were noted. The regulatory standards established in the Russian Federation for the mercury content in the muscles of non-predatory (<0.3 mg/kg w.w.) and predatory (<0.6 mg/kg w.w.) fish species were exceeded in 0.3% and 16% of the studied non-predatory and predatory fish, respectively. Most specimens of predatory fish species with Hg concentrations in the muscles exceeding the accepted standards were recorded in small lakes with swampy catchment areas, less in reservoirs, and least of all – in medium-sized lakes. The maximum acceptable limits of mercury content in fish and fish products established in the Russian Federation correspond or are close to the current standards accepted in the countries of the European Community and the United States and WHO recommendations, although there is no detailed regulation by age groups and risk groups.","PeriodicalId":198921,"journal":{"name":"Transactions of Papanin Institute for Biology of Inland Waters RAS","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127706157","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The maximum values of reproductive indicators of Ceriodaphnia affinis were registered in 2019. The toxicity of bottom sediments had a slight tendency to decrease in the upper section of the reservoir and did not change in the middle and lower sections. During the teratological study of the Uglich reservoir in 2012–2013 years it was found that the proportion of chironomid larvae with pathomorphological changes in the structures of the mouth parts during the observation period was on average 14.5%, which is higher than the established control (6.7–7.0%) and background values (0–8.0%). The results of the bioassay are confirmed by analytical data on water and sediment pollution. Significant differences in the pollution coefficient of water between the reservoir areas, both in individual elements and in total, have not been recorded. The highest values of the total and average pollution coefficient were reached in the middle section, where higher concentrations of Cu and Zn were determined.
