KarRC RAS staff trained to operate UAVs
Scientists from the Karelian Research Center RAS mastered the methods of operating unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) at the Geoscan Group's training ground in the Leningrad Region. Previously, the equipment for aerial surveys based on the Geoscan 401 vertical takeoff and landing system was purchased for the Karelian Research Center RAS within the framework of the Science and Universities national project with additional grant funding, e.g. from the Russian Science Foundation. The UAV system will be used for vegetation mapping, to identify landscape features and to conduct long-term remote monitoring of northern ecosystems in Karelia and the Murmansk Region, including their protected areas.

Changes in the seasonal activity of ticks may be related to climate warming
The taiga tick has become more abundant in the north of its range, and the onset of its activity now happens earlier. Such are the conclusions scientists from the Karelian Research Center RAS have come to after years of monitoring. Changes in the seasonal dynamics of this arachnid species may be related to climate warming.
