Lakes and Reservoirs

• Lake Imandra on Kola peninsula and Lake Evoron in Khabarovsk Province in Russia: dispersion of radionuclides after accidents on nuclear power stations and the dam breaking problems.
• Uglich Reservoir in Yaroslavl Province in Russia: study of dispersion of turbidity during sand excavation works.
• Ladoga Lake (Cheremukhinskii Bay): Simulation of currents in the region of projecting fishing farm.

Rivers

• Volga and Oka near Nizhniy Novgorod and Viatka at the north of the Russia: Simulations of accidental spill of pollutants and its propagation in the rivers.
• Kolyma in the Siberia: Propagation of storm surges into the river in the presence of hydropower station for the estimation of navigation conditions.
• Angara near Baykal Lake, Ingoda and Velikaya in the central Russia: Estimations of the influence of the development of large sand quarries in the river beds on hydraulic and turbidity regimes.
• Amur river near Khabarovsk: Forecasts of distribution of discharges among the river branches after implementation of different variants of dams constructions.

Bays and Gulfs

• • 1. Study of the impact on the environment of the Barrier constructed to protect St. Petersburg against floods (many different contracts). Example of animated field of spill propagation through Neva Bay and St. Petersburg Flood Protection Barrier can be seen here Neva Bay in the head of the Gulf of Finland:
  • 2. Simulations of flood penetration through the Barrier with partly opened gaps (contracts with firm Sir Alexander GIBB, UK and DHV Environment & Transportation, The Netherlands).
  • 3. Simulations of dynamics and dispersion of pollutants in unsteady hydrometeorological conditions for the choice of optimal locations of different treatment plants outfalls.
  • 4. Forecast of changes in current and concentration fields after construction of new port on the Vasilievskii Island and other coastal structures designed in the General Plan of Development of St.Peterburg.
  • 5. Estimation of the velocity conditions in Port of St. Petersburg in connection with the accident with MS ‘Silja Opera’ (contract with VTT Manufactoring Technology, Finland).
  • 6. Oil spill simulations in the Port of St.Petersburg
  • 7. Environmental impact assessments of dredging and damping in connection with constraction of new passenger terminal on the Vasilievsky Island.
• Koporskaya Bay in the Gulf of Finland: Environmental impact assessment in connection with construction of new block of Leningrad Nuclear Power Station.
• Kurgalskay Bay in the Gulf of Finland: Simulations of turbidity arised during the crop of iron-manganese nodules from the Bay bottom
• Luga Bay in in the Gulf of Finland: Estimation of changes in current regime after construction of new port in the Ust’-Luga.
• Gulf of Finland and Onega Bay of the White Sea: Oil spills simulations.

Seas

Baltic Sea:

• 1. Operational forecasts of water levels in St. Petersburg with the advance time 48 hours (since December 1999) and up to date. The bird’s eye view on evolution of water level in the Baltic Sea during one of the flood can be seen here:
• 2. Estimation of the extreme water level rises due to storm surges in the Eastern Gulf of Finland and near Leningrad Nuclear Power Station.
• Barents Sea: Environmental impact assessment in connection with laying of gas pipelines on the sea bottom.
• White Sea: Tidal motion and transport of pollutants loaded from river estuaries.
• Caspian Sea: Simulation of currents, water levels and oil spills.
• Black Sea (Koyharta, coastal area near Trabzund): Simulation of currents and dispersion of pollutants (contract with KTU Faculty of Marine Science in Turkey).
