The study of paleogeography of lakes is an actual and important direction in modern science. As part of the study of lakes in the North-West of the Karelian Isthmus, this analysis will establish the dynamics of salinity of objects, which will allow to reconstruct changes in the level of the Baltic Sea in the Holocene.

The paper characterizes the 3 associations comprising plant communities with Sphagnum rubellum in the south-eastern part of the Baltic region. The new syntaxa differ from each other both in their floristic characters and the pronounced affinity to definite regional mire types and particular habitats. The ass. Drosero-Sphagnetum rubelli is typical of the relatively most thorough ranges. It is observed from the Kaliningrad region to the Karelian Isthmus and, according to the published reference, occurs even throughout the whole area around the Baltic Sea. Its most typical habitat is that of margins of mire lakes and pools. The ass. Eriophoro-Sphagnetum rubelli occurs in central plateaus of convex plateau-like bogs, typical of the areas adjacent to the Baltic Sea coast. It occupies extended flat mire ecotopes with the water level 0.2–0.25 m deep. The ass. Empetro-Sphagnetum rubelli is characteristic of the retrogressive complex in the convex bogs of the East-Baltic Province. It is mostly observed along the coast of the Gulf of Finland. Its stands are rather dynamic and unstable in both space and time. The presence of communities comprised by these 3 associations is an important vegetation character of the series of regional mire types. Assuming an association level of the respective syntaxa seems rational for the purposes of adequate reflection of plant cover diversity.

The study of diatom complexes in the bottom sediments of 2 small nameless lakes on the western coast of Imandra Lake (Murmansk region) was carried out. The features of the historical dynamics of diatom flora in response to changes in the environment and climate in the Holocene are described. Diatom analysis revealed the effects of tectonic activity in the area of the Imandra Lake depression, accompanied by a sharp increase in the water level, which is confirmed by lithological data.

The native habitat of the brown bullhead Ameiurus nebulosus is located in the eastern part of North America. This species was introduced in Europe, Southwestern Asia and New Zealand. It was supposed that it entered Russia from the southwest and now inhabits some water bodies at the border with Ukraine and Belarus. Information about bullheads in Russia was searched for in scientific editions and angler’s blogs. Anglers’ reports have been verified by survey and fishing. It turned out that brown bullheads did in fact appear in Russia, but not where they were expected: they were found by the city of Saint Petersburg on the Karelian Isthmus, i.e., on the territory between Lake Ladoga and the Gulf of Finland of the Baltic Sea. They inhabit at least three lakes. This invasion resulted from release by unauthorized individuals. The revealed habitats are linked by brooks with the river systems of the Baltic Sea Basin. The following spread of the brown bullhead is possible due to intentional releases and natural processes.

The research area is located in the Northern part of the Karelian Isthmus between Lake Ladoga and the Gulf of Finland of the Baltic Sea. The terrain features are closely related to the tectonic structure of the crystalline basement, partially covered with thin deposition layer of the Last Glaciation and Holocene mostly. Accumulative forms are rarely but strongly correlated with the tectonic structure also. Most expressive features of accumulative topography are esker ridges that stretch for tens of kilometers. Analysis of eskers spatial distribution shows their close connection with the structural plan of the crystalline basement. One of the ridges under study was described in three sections where a lot of deformations in soft sediments, accompanied by deformations of the esker’s topography (in one case) were found. The nature and stratigraphic position of deformations indicates their appearance during the period of existence of the Baltic Ice Lake after the retreat of the ice sheet. Post-sedimentary deformations were accompanied by partial re-deposition of sedimentary strata. Deformations are represented by several types and generations. The ensembles of faults and fold deformations in the esker deposition kinematically connected with each other and coinciding along the strike with the structural lineaments demonstrate the influence of the activated tectonic structure to the formation of the sedimentary cover. The conjugation of normal and thrust faults, the presence of several “event horizons” with traces of liquefaction testify to the seismotectonic genesis of deformations and several strong earthquakes that occurred at different stages of the existence of the Baltic Ice Lake in the period 13.0–11.6 thousand years BP.
