RESEARCHERS OF SPITZBERGEN WILL MEET AT A SCIENTIFIC CONFERENCE
26.10.2018
October 31 at 10 a.m. in the conference hall of the Polar Geophysical Institute at Murmansk, Khalturina str., 15, will be the opening of the XIV All-Russian Scientific Conference with international participation "Integrated studies of Svalbard nature and offshore" will take place.
The conference is organized by the Murmansk Marine Biological Institute together with the Ministry of Science and Higher Education. Currently, this conference is the only scientific forum in the Russian Federation that brings together Russian and foreign researchers of Spitsbergen. Ensuring a Russian presence on the Spitsbergen archipelago is one of the strategic priorities of the state policy in the Arctic. Russia is objectively interested in maintaining stability in Spitsbergen and maintaining conditions for conducting broad scientific activities. On the territory of the Murmansk region, there are 6 organizations (MMBI, PGI, PABSI, FRC KSC RAS, Kola branch of FRC UGS RAS, Murmansk weather control and environmental monitoring service) conducting scientific activities on the Svalbard archipelago.
