This year, Russian researchers in the Arctic will study the features of climatic processes, biological productivity, and the fluxes of matter, primarily carbon, in marine ecosystems. In addition, scientists intend to obtain new data on the oil and gas potential of the Russian continental shelf in the Arctic.
