A High-Resolution Study of Seismogenic Structures: The Making of a Double Seismic Zone
… 5.5)$ earthquakes that occurred along the Kuril-Kamchatka arc between 1963 and 1991 were determined by inverting teleseismic P and SH waveforms. Based on these results, I delineated seismogenic structures at depths shallower than 200 km and proposed interpretations for systematic variation of …

AMPHIPODS ARE STRONG INTERACTORS IN THE FOOD WEB OF A BROWN-WATER SALMON RIVER
… foodweb. In brown water rivers of Western Kamchatka, the foodweb is dominated by ubiquitous benthic amphipods (Anisogammarus kygi) that consume salmon carcass material. We hypothesized that A. kygi are a strong interactor in the feedback loop which links dead spawner biomass to juvenile …

Seismic studies of subducted lithosphere
… sized earthquakes that occurred along the Kuril-Kamchatka in the past 30 years. My results show that the configuration of the subducting slab and the state of strain within the subducted lithosphere are highly variable along both the strike and dip. In particular, I observed down-dip …

Viral diversity and host-virus interactions in the model crenarchaeon Sulfolobus islandicus
… regions: Yellowstone National Park (USA) and Kamchatka (Russia) to understand whether differences between these two viral populations are important drivers of the evolutionary trajectories of local S. islandicus populations. We isolated, purified, sequenced and established in culture eight new …

Late Cretaceous-Cenozoic Accretionary History of Volcanic Arcs and the Bering Oceanic Plateau in the Northwestern in Alaska and Northeastern Russia Constrained by Integration of Geologic, Geophysical, and Radiometric Data
… intraoceanic arc that can be traced from Kamchatka along the northern and eastern margins of the Bering Sea; 4) the Cretaceous-Eocene (75-44 Ma) Bering oceanic plateau with a 13-17-km-thick crust that collided with Russia at the Koryak Range, terminated magmatism along the Olyutorsky arc …

Population genomics of Sulfolobus islandicus: genome-wide recombination and antagonistic interactions
… population from the Mutnovsky Volcano region of Kamchatka, Russia was studied in-depth to determine why diverging species showed large 'continents' of fixation between co-existing 'species'. The effects of mutation, selection, and recombination were analyzed genome-wide using a set of ten genomes …

Seeds of exchange: collecting for Russia's apothecary and botanical gardens in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries
… Sciences travelled east into Siberia as far as Kamchatka and the Pacific Ocean. These itineraries, the gardens they produced, and the scientific claims they were then used to substantiate show how the scientific image of Siberia was constructed in combination with the establishment of the city …
