Geographic Coverage

and paper industry using the example of JSC «Mondi SLPK». The enterprise is located on the territory of the Komi Republic and has been operating since 1969. Mondi Syktyvkar is one of the leaders in the Russian pulp and paper industry and the largest domestic paper producer. At the same time enterprise is also a source of industrial emissions into the air basin of various pollutants. The company's emissions include sulfur and nitrogen oxides, hydrogen sulfide, sulfur anhydride, mineral dust containing calcium and sodium carbonates and sulfides (Torlopova and Robakidze, 2012). Since 2002, the enterprise has been carrying out large-scale work aimed at reducing the impact of airborne man-made emissions on the environment.

Title Russia 2021
Identifier N-Eurasia-Russia2021
Study Area Description All material was collected in the European part of Russia: Syktyvkar
Design Description Soil fauna studies were carried out in three types of forests: 1. Bilberry pine forests (May-September 2007-2010, 2018) 2. Lichen pine forests (June-July 2010) 3. Bilberry spruce forests (May-September 2003-2004, 2006, 2008-2010, 2019). All forests were located in the load zones identified earlier by the level of pollution and the state of vegetation: background (20-50 km), buffer (4-14 km) and impact (0-3 km).

Sampling Methods

The collection of soil invertebrates was carried out in areas of pine and spruce forests in different zones (impact, buffer and background) from the enterprise. The material includes data collected during the period of modernization and reduction of emissions of the enterprise.

Study Extent The dataset provides information on the number of individuals of Large soil invertebrates in soil cores and soil traps collected in pine and spruce forests located in the zone of influence of pulp and paper industry.
Quality Control The data were collected and identified by specialists from the Institute of Biology of the Komi Scientific Center of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Lumbricidae, Lithobiidae, Julidae, Polyzoniidae, Coleoptera (Carabidae, Staphylinidae, Eleteridae, Curculionidae, Ostomatidae), some Hemiptera have been identified to the species.

Method step description:

  1. Two methods of material collection were used at each site: 1. Soil samples. We took 8-10 soil samples with a size of 25x25 cm or 10x10 cm to a depth of 5-10 cm. 2. Soil traps. The barber traps were made of plastic pots (10 cm deep, 12 cm in diameter) filled with salt water (30% vol.) and formalin (5% vol.) and buried to the rim into the soil. Individuals, who could not be identified in the field, were stored in 95% ethanol for subsequent identification with binocular microscope.
