sediments from the northern shelf of the Sea ofOkhotsk recovered by hydrostatic corer from thedepth of 140 mbsl elucidated environmentalchanges in this part of the basin and adjacentland areas during the last 12.7 thousands cal.years. Geochronological scale of the core is establishedusing the acceleration massspectrometrymethod for radiocarbon dating ofbenthic Foraminifera tests. The first insignificantwarming in the northern part of the sea after glaciationoccurred in the mid-Boreal time (9.6 kaago) but not at the onset of the Holocene. Thestrongest warming in the region took place in themid-Atlantic epoch to reach climatic optimum inthe second half of the Subboreal (6 to 2.5 kaago). A cooling in the northern shelf and adjacentland areas is established at the beginning ofthe Subatlantic (2.5 ka). A comparison of resultsobtained for Core 89211 with dated hydrologicaland climatic changes in central and southernparts of the Sea of Okhotsk (Gorbarenko et al.,2003, 2004) is used for a high-resolution analysisof climatic fluctuations in the study regionand other areas of the basin during deglaciationand the Holocene.2008040581俄 罗 斯 上 新 生 界 研 究 中 的 问 题 和 新 目 标 =Problems and new objectives of studying theUpper Cenozoic of Russia.

Also discussed are peculiaritiesof the volcanic process, the nature andevolution time of the volcanic structures, thecomplete and incomplete volcanic cycles. Dataof comprehensive geological, stratigraphic andpaleovolcanologic study are used to subdividethe Kinkil’skii Formation of Paleogene volcanogenicrocks in the northwestern Kamchatka,which has undivided previously, into the Shamanka,Rebro, Bozhedomova, and Geeklen volcanogeniccomplexes of concurrent or differentages. As a result, two epochs of volcanism (thelate Ypresian-Lutetian and late Bartonian-Priabonian) are distinguished. A hiatus separatingthe epochs was a time of intense scouringand leveling the landforms and of the weatheringcrust formation. In conclusions, some problemsof the paleogeography in Kamchatka and adjacentterritories are discussed.2008040583关 于 里 海 地 区 新 更 新 世 - 全 新 世 区 域 和 当 地 层型 细 分 的 资 料 = Data on stratotypes of the neopleistocene-holoceneregional and local subdivisionsin the Caspian region.

Stratigraphy and Geological Correlation,2007, 15(5): 536-552Considered in the work are data characterizingstratotypes of regional and local stratigraphicsubdivisions, which are distinguished in theNeopleistocene-Holocene sedimentary successionof the Caspian region. The succession iscomposed of sediments deposited by the Caspiantransgressions and intervening continental sedimentsof the late Quaternary. Except for stratotypesof the Tyurkyany Horizon and GyurgyanyFormation, which are established in boreholesections, the other ones represent the wellstratifiednatural sections accessible for examinationof their subdivisions distinguished basedon biostratigraphic criteria. Mollusks of the genusDidacna Eichwald and fossil assemblages oflarge mammals are used to substantiate stratigraphyof marine and terrestrial deposits, respectively.2008040584俄 罗 斯 泽 亚 - 布 列 亚 沉 积 盆 地 Erkovtsy 褐 煤矿 区 的 孢 粉 地 层 = Palynostratigraphy of theErkovtsy field of brown coal (the Zeya-Bureyasedimentary basin).

Stratigraphy and Geological Correlation,2007, 15(4): 385-400The Erkovtsy brown coal field in the northwesternZeya-Bureya sedimentary basin (129°–130° E, 46°–47° N) is structurally confined tosouthern flank of the Mesozoic-Cenozoic Belogor’edepression. The verified stratigraphicscheme of the coalfield sedimentary sequence issubstantiated by palynological data on core samplesfrom 18 boreholes sampled in the course ofdetailed prospecting and by paleobotanicalanalysis of sections in the Yuzhnyi sector of thecoalfield (data of 1998 by M.A. Akhmetiev andS.P. Manchester). Sections of the Erkovtsy,Arkhara-Boguchan, and Raichikha brown-coalmines are correlated. Stratigraphic subdivisionsdistinguished in the studied sedimentary successionare the middle and upper Tsagayan subformations(the latter incorporating the Kivda Beds),Raichikha, Mukhino, Buzuli, and Sazanka formations.2008040585俄 罗 斯 北 欧 部 分 的 新 更 新 世 : 地 层 、 古 地 理和 古 气 候 = The Neopleistocene of North EuropeanRussia: Stratigraphy, paleogeography, andpaleoclimate.
