Background: Research is ongoing relating to the analysis of a set of issues that arise in connection with the creation of the operating on the basis of vacuum magnetic technologies a transcontinental high-speed land transport corridor, connecting the eastern regions of China with Russia. As part of the variation calculus task, the geopolitical, economic, social, logistic, geographic, geomorphological, seismological, topographic components of the project are considered, in which it is assumed that the high speed overland route will pass through the north-western part of the historical region of Dzungaria. Aim: Find the most optimal from the point of view of the above components the location of the most important section of high speed overland route passing through Central Asia. Methods: Variational methods for solving an optimization problem with the use of a computer math system. Results: After creating a fairly informative and versatile picture of the region in question, the foundations of the corresponding mathematical models are built. Conclusion: The New Dzungarian Gates is a key element in choosing the location of a high-speed overland route based on VMLT.

The paper examines the cycle of stories “The capture of Novgorod the Great” and “The Taking of Pskov” in manuscripts of the 16th–17th centuries. Since at least two manuscripts contain the stories “The taking of Novgorod the Great” and “The taking of Pskov” in the same sequence, thematically related, the creator of this cycle probably used the same chronicle source. The author analyzes texts taking into account the composition of the manuscripts and the context of chronicle texts of the 15th–16th centuries on the annexation of the North-Western lands to the Grand Duchy of Moscow. Attention is focused on the fact that the story “The taking of Pskov” simultaneously contains signs of both Pskov and Moscow points of view on the events of 1510. Consequently the author suggests a hypothesis: the creator of the cycle of stories “The taking of Novgorod the Great” and “The taking of Pskov” processed now lost source of the story “The taking of Pskov”, which reflected Pskov point of view on its annexation, the Grand prince`s attitude towards joining the North-Western lands of the Grand Duchy of Moscow, and according to his plan, connected with the creation of ideas about joining the North-Western lands as a single process of gathering lands.

    Topical issues of justification and use of various types of passenger transport are considered. Use peculiarities and operating costs of automobile, railway, air, sea and river transport are analyzed on the example of the North-Western region of Russia. Special attention is paid to the use of sea and river high-speed passenger ships. Technical and operational characteristics of new types of high-speed passenger ships are described. A feasibility study of using various types of high-speed passenger ships has been performed. It is shown that according to a number of technical and economic indicators of the passenger transportation efficiency, WIG vessels exceed the characteristics of other types of high-speed vessels.

The aim of the article is to review the geographical distribution of the main types of plant communities of mires of the boreal zone of European Russia, and to assess the impact of the orographic factor on it. The review made on the materials of 40-year study of mires vegetation of European Russia. It was found that the main botanical and geographical boundaries within the taiga zone of European Russia pass through the subzones of the northern and southern taiga, the Eastern edge of Fennoscandia and the coastal part of the North-Western region.

This article attempts to find out the origin of a number of homonyms, as well as their correlates (phonetic, lexical-semantic variants, and derived words), i.e ри́нда / ры́нда, ры́н(д)ега / ры́нюга, ринь / рынь, etc. They are recorded in the Northern Russian dialects in independent and related (as part of phraseological phrases) use in two areas, i.e. the north-western regions of Arkhangelsk region and Belozerye. The main source of dialect material is the card catalogue of the Dictionary of Dialects of the Russian North, which makes it possible to take into account a number of additional parameters during the etymologisation and semantic reconstruction of dialecticisms: the exact geographical reference, the number of fixations, etc. From the point of view of semantics, these dialecticisms can be divided into five groups: the natural sphere (meteorology), various spheres of human activity (fishing, cooking, clothing (with some conditionality)), as well as human behaviour. The linguistic geography data indicate the borrowed character of the lexemes and the Finno-Ugric languages as the source languages of borrowing. For the lexemes of each group, a source is found in the Finnic languages (Karelian and/or Veps) or Sami, taking into account information about the former settlement of the Finno-Ugric peoples in the specified territory, as well as the correlation и // ы and the origin of the phoneme ы in the dialecticisms studied.
