Researchers saiga European population since the mid-twentieth century, noted the association of the rut on the right bank of the river. Volga to December, and its duration is 7—10 days. The increase in the duration of estrus in saiga European population, marked by us since 1994, which continued in subsequent years, is regarded by us as a subspecies of adaptation to changes in the environment. This adaptation has led to a change in the strategy of reproduction in saiga, by deterioration of habitat, primarily hard anthropogenic pressure.

The aim of this work is to assess the dynamics of the coagulating activity of blood plasma from milking sows in Central Russia. Healthy milking sows Central Russia is gradually increasing plasma antioxidant protection and lowering the amount of lipid peroxidation. Lowering the milking sows activity of coagulation factors leads to the normalization process of coagulation on both ways of plasma hemostasis after it burst during farrowing, that contributes to the maintenance of homeostasis at the optimal level.

This work is the starting point for a series of studies in the field of evolution and ecology of human aging. The author suggested the hypothesis that in man occurred selection genes that are involved in disease development, the aging characteristic (hypertension, malignant tumors, diabetes second form, atherosclerosis, etc.). An important role in the mechanism of the impact of aging plays a protein cereals on the human body. It is shown that a strict diet bezzalkovaya 2.5 months resulted in normalization of blood pressure and reduction in fat mass in a group of 11 elderly people suffering from hypertension. The author discusses the mechanism of the effect of protein on the development of hypertension cereals, the second form of diabetes, atherosclerosis, cataracts and cancer in older age groups.

The paper describes a method for evaluation of quality of life in metropolitan area using demographic and mortality information. The equation for quality of life index was derived. The results foe city of Tula are provided as an example.

Iodine deficiency is one of important factors contributing to the risk of thyroid cancer in areas subjected to radioiodine contamination. The aim of the study was to reveal spatial patterns in iodine distribution in soils and vegetation of the grazing lands of the Bryansk oblast affected by the Chernobyl accident. Iodine distribution was proved to be dependent upon the landscape geochemical type related to the type of soil and soil-forming rock and geomorphological position defining water regime. Its mean concentration in topsoils and vegetation has correspondingly decreased in a row: subordinated opolje landscapes — autonomous opolje landscapes — subordinated polesje and moraine landscapes — autonomous polesje and moraine landscapes. The spatial difference revealed in iodine accumulation was suggested to cause difference in iodine transfer to the local food chain and human organism and therefore to contribute to spatial variation in manifestation of thyroid diseases related to iodine deficiency and radioiodine contamination within the studied area.

It is estimated the impact of air pollution on public health Primorye on the example of two industrial cities — Ussuriysk and Spassk-Dalny. Based on the analysis of statistical data it is established the dominant incidence and prevalence in the two cities. It is revealed strong and moderate connection between the incidence of Diseases of the circulatory system and air pollutants coming from anthropogenic sources these cities.

The Republic of Côte d'Ivoire is beginning to be one of the leading oil producing countries in Africa. Localization of hydrocarbon fields on the shelf and continental slope creates very high risks of coastal zone's ecosystems contamination and destabilization of a number of the leading sectors of the economy. This is the reason for establishing clear government requirements for mining companies on the availability and quality of resources to combat oil spills.

In this article territorial features of fuel and energy complex facilities development in territorial subjects of the Russia and its influence on ecosystems and people health are considered.

Awareness of students to environmental issues is one of the most important educational effects of teaching languages at the Faculty of Ecology. A personal attitude of the young environmentalist to a problem, his subjective assessment necessarily includes evaluational approach and emotional reflection of the research (we give the example of the Lake District cultural meaning and its ecological situation). He is to be able to express it in a foreign language. Transmitting this component in the target language when translating requires special exercises on attitudinal statements.
