This article is devoted to a study of the fauna of the long-tongued bees in the north of the Arkhangelsk Region, which is located in the northeast of the European part of Russia, but excludes the Arctic islands. This group includes the bees of the families Megachilidae and Apidae. Forty-four (44) species of bees were found in this region. Most of them (29) are bumblebees (genus Bombus). Fourteen (14) species are megachilid bees (genus Osmia, Coelioxys and Megachile) and one species is Apis mellifera. The largest number of species (39) was recorded in the lower reaches of the Northern Dvina River, due to the long research on this territory. The lowest number of species (16) was recorded in the Mezensky District. In the north of the studied region, the tundra species of B. lapponicus is only presented for the Mezensky District. Many species of bumblebees in the regional fauna belong to the ecological group of the meadow species. These are B. soroeensis, B. ruderarius, B. rupestris and a number of others. They are typical for meadow and ruderal habitats, and are usually not presented in the native taiga habitats. These meadow species are widely represented in the valleys of large rivers, such as the Northern Dvina, the Onega, and the Mezen. Compared to bumblebees, megachilid bees are much rarer in the north of the Arkhangelsk Region. Apis mellifera is presented in the lower reaches of the Northern Dvina River, but here it is rare, compared to the southern part of the Arkhangelsk Region.

Article presents relation of thawing coefficient (Ath) and compressibility coefficient during thawing (m) to the sampling depth and physical state of frozen soils in loams, typical for the Arctic region of the European part of Russia. Conclusions are drawn that help to predict thawing deformation of the tested soils according to their physical characteristics.

Research objective: analysis of options to complete BELKOMUR railway construction. Research methodology: analysis of directions for construction of the main transport routes that would enable comprehensive development of the North of the European part and the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation. Results: The meridian direction, i.e. the North-South Corridor, plays a crucial role in the development of the North of the European part and the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation. Using this route for transporting international transit cargo through the territory of Russia ensures a significant reduction in delivery time from European countries to countries in the Asian-Pacific Region, the Indian Ocean and the Persian Gulf regions, and completely changes the logistics. Having the construction materials relatively nearby is an advantage for building any transport highway. The huge volumes of accumulated waste rock, tailings and slags are creating serious economic and environmental problems in mining regions. The rocks in these dumps have been stored for quite a long time, so the dump is a consolidated rock massif made up of various lump sizes. Therefore, this rock can be used as a construction material for transport routes. Conclusions: This approach will make it possible to both address environmental challenges and organise large-scale production of comparatively cheap crushed stone from large-capacity sources of raw materials.

On the basis of author's graphical analysis method, the typification of lake ecosystems transformation scenarios depending on the size of lakes was carried out. It was confirmed that the type of transformation depends not only on size of the lake, but also on the landscape and climatic region in which it is located. The distinctive features of lake ecosystems transformation types in the European part of Russia and in Western Siberia were analyzed and compared.

The article is devoted to the study of modern theoretical and legal problems of ensuring biological security in the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation. The published Draft of Federal law No. 850485-7“On biological security of the Russian Federation”provides an opportunity to take a closer look at the problem of legal provision of biological security in relation to the most vulnerable ecosystems, and, first of all, the Arctic. The article considers the most important features and potential risks of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation of critical importance from the point of view of biological hazards, the features (specificity) of biological safety problems from the point of view of organizational-legal features and, in particular, from the perspective of environmental law. It is proved that, given the special situation of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation, in addition to the base Federal law“About biological safety” required a specific law on biological and ecological safety of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation, which should be generated on a slightly different model than the draft Federal law «On biological safety”, to wear the most specific, applied nature.
