Regional Data Center (RDC) is 40 years old in 2014. Its main goals are accumulation of research data on Far-Eastern marine biological resources and their environments, as well as supervision for the data collection, validation and processing. Principal activities of RDC are: 1) development and implementation of computerize workplaces for scientific and technical personnel aboard research vessels and ashore; 2) logging of primary cruise materials on paper and their digitizing; 3) development and management of large databases (DB) for the information gathered in research cruises and fishery statistics; 4) creation of knowledge bases and geographic information systems (GIS) containing the processed results on long-term monitoring of marine ecosystems; 5 ) performing any user queries to the DB and GIS for quick information support of current scientific, practical and administrative activities in all departments of TINRO; 6) development of new methodological approaches to data processing and automation of related processes by creation of original software; 7 ) inter-institutional data exchange and creation of joint DB; 8) TINRO staff consulting on methodological issues of statistical and cartographic data processing; 9) development of regulations and normative documents regulating relationships in collection, storage and access to the information archived in RDC; 10) scientific researches, independent or joint with other laboratories. These ten trends are focused onto studies of marine ecosystems and their climatic and oceanographic environments, short-term and long-term forecasting of bioresources, rational management of fisheries and aquaculture, planning of research expeditions.

We study the impact of Russian regional governors’ rotation and their affiliation with private sector firms for the quality of investment climate in Russian regions. A theoretical model presented in the paper predicts that these factors taken together improve “endogenous” property rights under authoritarian regimes. This conclusion is confirmed empirically by using Russian regional data for 2002—2010; early in that period gubernatorial elections had been canceled and replaced by federal government’s appointments. This is an indication that under certain conditions government rotation is beneficial for economic development even when democracy is suppressed.
