[MIS05-10] Interregional and inter-settlement communications of the border territories of Northeast Asia in the context of environment changing (case of Yakutia and Chukotka)

*Antonina Nikolaevna Savvinova1 (1.North-Eastern Federal Univesity)

Keywords:communications, border area, winter roads, climate change

Communications between the northern regions, districts, and local administrative units undergo certain changes over time. In many ways, the properties of these changes depend on many factors: natural, climatic, and historically established relationships between the indigenous peoples inhabiting the territories. The quality of inter-regional relations also depends on the development of the modern framework of the transport network, telecommunications, Internet technologies, etc. In this paper, interregional communications of the Yakut-Chukchi border area are considered on the example of two Russia regions: Nizhnekolymsky district of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) and the Bilibinsky district of the Chukotka Autonomous Okrug. The inter-settlement interaction on winter roads (avtozimniki) has been studied, the influence of climate change on the condition and duration of operation of winter roads in the places of residence of Indigenous small peoples of the North has been analyzed.
