P.P.Shirshov Institute of Oceanologyof Russian
Academy of Sciences( department of oceanology,
physics of atmosphere and geography) established
in 1946. It is one of the largest research
institute in Russia. It is multi-profiles
institute studied sciences connected with
problems of the World Ocean and seas. There are
three branches in Sant-Peterburg's branch
(Sant-Peterburg), Atlantic branch (Kaliningrad)
and Southern branch (Gelendzhik).

SUMMARY REFERENCE Determination of role of
mesoscale hydrophysical, hydrochemical and
biological processes in the system of
circulation and transferring of matter and energy
and biological productivity formatting in the
Black, Azov and Caspian Seas. The project is
implemented within the framework subprogram '
Nature of the World Ocean' of the program 'World
Ocean' with the following objective
assessment of role of mesoscale hydrophysical
processes in formatting local hydrochemical
conditions and spatial distribution of the main
components of bioproductivity coastal and
deep-sea ecosystems in the Black, Azov and
Caspian Sea.

SUMMARY REFERENCE
Analyzes of interannual and climatic variability
of the hydrophysical, hydrochemical and
biological parameters and processes in ecosystems
of the Black, Azov, Caspian Seas to predict their
state. Project is implemented within the
framework subprogram 'The Natural resources of
the World Ocean' of the program 'The World Ocean'
Monitoring of complex investigations was
conducted in Russian areas of the Black, whole
Azov and whole Caspian Sea (without Iranian
area). Comparative analyzes of hydrophysical,
hydrochemical and biological parameters was
performed for four years surveys data. Seasonal
and interannual variability were assessed and
prediction of development of ecosystems under
climatic and anthropogenic effect was made.

Russian National Research ProgramThe World
Oceansubprogram Investigations of Natural
resources of the World Ocean leg-1
(1999-2002)Ministry of Science and Technology
Policy of the Russian Federation.

• The goals of the program
• ?Investigation of the role of the ocean and polar
  areas in forming weather anomalies for short and
  long-term weather forecasts and measuring
  possible climatic alterations on the Earth

9
?Determining biological productive capability of
oceans and seas to estimate steady amounts of
removing the commercial objects and to predict
change in their stocks
10
? Assessment and forecast of changes in
environmental situation in the seas of Russia on
the basis of comprehensive oceanographic
research, working out guidelines and prediction
of socioeconomic development of maritime regions
in the country based on methodology of integrated
coastal zone management
11
?Setting up efficient systems of monitoring the
marine and polar processes, revealing pattern
characteristics of the Arctic and parameters of
their variability.
12
The main system of projects

• 1. Diagnose and prediction of climate of the
  World Ocean(6 projects).2. Dynamic of ecosystem,
  biodiversity and commercial productivity,
  biogeochemical cycles and problems of
  pollution (8 projects).3. Investigation into
  composition and structure of the earths crust
  and the upper mantle beneath oceans and seas,
  estimation of mineral resources(11 projects).

13
Regional projects.

• 1. Comprehensive investigations and monitor of
  Far East Seas of Russia(16 projects).2.
  Comprehensive investigations and monitor of
  Arctic Seas of Russia(18 projects).3.
  Comprehensive investigations and monitor of the
  Black , Azov and Caspian Seas
• (13 projects).4 . Comprehensive investigations
  and monitor of the Baltic Sea (5 projects).
• 5. Development of the technical base and methods
  of scientific investigations. Development of new
  instruments of observations (2 projects).
