“…The climate is moderately continental bordering on continental with sharp variability of weather conditions and pronounced seasonality. The average annual temperature is + 3 °C with a tendency to increase rapidly (with the rate of about 1 degree in 25 years) (Vasiliev et al 2020). The average temperature for the coldest month (January) is − 12.6 °C, and for the warmest (July) is + 19.0 °C.…”

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed all areas of human activity as it forced the authorities around the world to enact unprecedented restrictions such as "lockdowns". The low economic activity reduced the anthropogenic impact on the environment, in particular, greenhouse gases and aerosols emissions were decreased. However, the associated change in air quality is difficult to directly observe and quantify, since concentrations of these components in urban areas are affected by many other factors. In this work statistical analysis of atmospheric CO 2 , CH 4 and PM 2.5 , measured in 2017-2020 in the city of Ekaterinburg, Russia, are presented. A detailed focus was made on the lockdown period from March 28 to April 30, 2020. A significant decrease in concentrations and inter-hourly variations of all studied components were observed only in the short "self-isolation" period from April 6 to April 8. The anthropogenic origin of this effect, primarily associated with the reduction in vehicular traffic, was concluded from mean diurnal cycles and air temperature correlations of all components. A decrease in the difference between measured and background CO 2 and CH 4 mole fractions was also found during this period. The difference was 1.3±0.2 ppm for CO 2 and 8±4 ppb for CH 4 , which was many times lower than during any other observed periods, suggesting a short-term effect of lockdown restrictions. Overall, a negative impact on the atmosphere quickly resumed after the recovery of economic activity. The approaches in this study can be used to detect weak fluctuations of atmospheric components in other urban territories.

“…At the Mayak PA site, there is a concern that flooding or any failure of the reservoirs that have been used to store vast volumes of radioactive waste will result in massive releases of radionuclides to the Ob River system and ultimately to the Kara Sea. Average annual air temperatures in the area have increased by 1.6 °C to 2.0 °C, with an increase in annual precipitation of 32.8 mm from 1966 to 2018 211 . Little information is available concerning the resilience of these reservoirs to future climate scenarios and their vulnerabilities to extreme events.…”

Climate change interacts with the sources and cycling of contaminants, such as radionuclides, in the environment. In this review, we discuss the implications of climate change impacts on existing and potential future sources of radionuclides associated with human activities to the marine environment. The overall effect on operational releases of radionuclides from the nuclear and non-nuclear sectors will likely be increased interference or prevention of normal operations due to weather-related events. For certain radioactive waste dumped at sea and sunken nuclear submarines, the impact of climate change and ocean acidification on the release of radionuclides and their subsequent fate in the marine environment should be considered further. Fluxes from secondary sources of radionuclides in the marine and terrestrial environment and cryosphere will change in response to climate change impacts such as sea level rise, warming and changes in precipitation patterns. In addition, climate change impacts may increase the risk of releases of radionuclides from operational and legacy wastes on land to the marine environment. Overall, our synthesis highlights that there is a need to understand and assess climate change impacts on sources of radionuclides to the marine environment to meet environmental and management challenges under future climate scenarios.
