The combined species-areal approach looks like to be optimal. The database should be created as a series of layers in a “drill-down” mode from the site of the sample collection (Areal component) to the bioinformation of the particular biological object (Species component) and metadata. Thereaf- ter the linkage from the point of collection to the various biological attributes of any sample. The shift between layers and the protocols of the aside access to the spreadsheets is performed by the system of personnel IDs and passwords.  Thus, the easy access to the set of data will be provided, but, along with the copyright for the intellectual property. In case of successful startup of the EDMS one can expect the effective contacts between science groups on the na- tional and international levels. The EDMS could be a basis for the further research activity as well as for MSU science promotion.

]]> Avifauna of the Forest Altitudinal Belt in Subarctic Mountains of Asia https://moip-bio.msu.ru/en/articles/avifauna-of-the-forest-altitudinal-belt-in-subarctic-mountains-of-asia/ Wed, 06 Sep 2023 09:42:38 +0000 https://moip-bio.msu.ru/stati/avifauna-of-the-forest-altitudinal-belt-in-subarctic-mountains-of-asia/ On the basis of own data and extensive literature analysis a comparison has been conducted of the avifaunas that occupy forest belt of subarctic mountains of Asia: Koryak and Kolyma uplands, mountains in Yakutia (Verkhoyanskiy, Cherskogo, Kular, Polousny mountain ranges), Anabar and Putorana Plateaus, Polar and near-Polar Urals. In these regions the forest (mountain forest, mountain taiga) belt covers lower parts of mountainsides and bottoms of mountain val- leys and is marked by absolute domination of tree vegetation. High similarity was revealed in taxonomic structure and species composition in fauna of breeding birds (n = 185) of the forest mountain belt in the subarctic mountains of Asia. The mountain forest avifaunas of Yakutia mountain ranges, Putorana Plateau and Kolyma upland are the most similar, where the number of common species comprises 83–84%. The great majority of bird species of the forest belt of subarctic mountains of Asia are not ecologically associated with mountains. Bird species of the nearby plains considerably increase species diversity of mountain forest avifaunas and make the latter qualitatively similar with avifaunas of adjacent landscapes of plains at foot-hills. Such species as Carpodacus roseus (Pallas, 1776) and Tarsiger cyanurus (Pallas, 1773) breed mostly in the forest belt.

Forest sites of small sizes are isolated of extensive forest areas and their biota has been forming by especial way, so these habitats are of interest in biogeography aspect. One of the main survey’s tasks was a comparison of island ecosystems biota with typical boreal biocoenoses of middle taiga. The study has been discovered, that forest island of small area may serve as canals for southern animal species migration into boreal zone (oriole, grosbeak, wryneck, striped field mouse). Also these forest islands may serve as habitats for rare animal species such as northern red-backed mouse and European flying squirrel. As vegetation cover these sites are distinguished by high species diversity of trees, shrubs and herbs.

The main attention was paid to the pollen accumulation rates of main forest taxa, Cerealia and some other pollen types for identification of vegetation zones. The impor- tance of modern spectra investigation for interpretation of Holocene fossil data is demonstrated.

The flora include 55 species of macroalgae from 36 genus, 23 families, 17 orders of the divisions Chlorophyta, Phaeophyta and Rhodophyta, and also 4 species of sea grasses Magnoliophyta. Rhodophyta have of mostly species between all taxons. Marine, one-year, leading and oligosaprobic groups are base ecological   for macrophytobenthos (MFB) and macrophytoperyphyton (MFP). Structure MFB and МFP, their phytomass are subject of bathymetric variability. On the basis of the data about ecological structure macrophytocenoses Kasachia bay is offered the conclusion on preservation of the status by it concerning a pure bay. The fauna include 74 species of invertebrates different taxons (Polychaeta, Mollusca, Crustacea, Pantopoda). A dominant species in MFP – polychaeta Platynereis dumerilii, in MFB – amphipoda Gammarus insensibilis. Results of clasterisation reflected of high level of similarity of the investigated complexes of species from different depths of dwelling.
