“…В долгосрочной перспективе концепция «экосистемных услуг и природного капитала» [18,19] с монетарной оценкой компонентов окружающей среды также может быть использована для комплексной оценки качества условий окружающей среды, как уже разрабатывается для технологий устойчивого лесопользования [20]. Такой подход может стать связующим звеном между качественными и даже эмоциональными оценками природной среды и демографическими и социально-экономическими характеристиками в региональном масштабе.…”

Global climate change has a dramatic impact on the environment, transforming the conditions of human life and economic activities, which affects migration patterns as well. Climatic conditions have always played a crucial role in population distribution in Russia. Today, the impact of severe climatic regime of the Northern Russian territories is becoming increasingly aggravated with the negative effects of the global climate change, spurring up the population outflow from such strategically important regions as the Far North, Siberia, and the Far East. This study aims at estimating the role of environmental factors in this process on the basis of analysis of statistical data on the distribution of migrants by reasons for resettlement. Results of the analysis proved that climatic conditions are a powerful push/pull factor of internal migration in Russia; hence, as the climate change progresses, the population outflow especially from the Russian North is likely to become more intense. On the other hand, the climate change has already become a serious problem for Central Asian countries, creating risks for food security, water supply and energy systems there. Gradual environmental deterioration provokes socio-economic crises which force the population of vulnerable areas to migrate in search of livelihood sustainability. The majority of such migrants resettle within their countries, but a part is likely to move to Russia following the traditional labor migration patterns. Our preliminary estimates show that by 2050Russia is going to get additionally up to 120,000 migrants from Central Asia in total. In the authors' opinion this trend should be considered as positive both from the point of view of a contribution to the population of Russia, and from the point of view of Central Asian population's adaptation to the climate change.

Introduction: The objective of the study was to characterize subjective perception of environmental, climatic and anthropogenic health risk factors by indigenous and non-indigenous urban population of the Far North. Materials and methods: In summer–autumn 2019, we conducted a questionnaire-based survey (n=446) in two cities of the Russian Far North to establish the main features of public perception of environmental, climatic and anthropogenic health risk factors. Results: We established that one third of the respondents described northern climatic conditions as “severe” or “rather severe” without any marked differences in opinion between groups of respondents formed by criteria of age, sex, and nativity. The specific local features perceived as having the most adverse health effects included the polar night, atmospheric pressure and temperature fluctuations, and strong winds. A significantly more negative perception and harder adaptation to the climate of the Far North were typical of all women and non-indigenous people. They were also more persevering in self-preservation to minimize adverse health effects of the local factors and practiced compliance with daily living routines, diet control, vitamin intake, etc. Conclusions: We found that adverse climatic conditions, high levels of anthropogenic contamination in the northern urban areas, and the resulting worries about children’s health were the leading “push-out” factors of migration. Pronounced migration intentions were noted among both the locally born and bred people and the migrants. We also observed no significant differences between those groups in ranking the importance of climatic and anthropogenic factors in decision to leave.
