Nature of the Urals Presentation for a geography lesson Grade 8

The Urals is a geographical region in Russia and Kazakhstan, stretching between the East European and West Siberian plains. The main part of this region is the Ural mountain system. The Urals is located at the crossroads of Europe and Asia and is the border between these regions. The stone belt of the Urals and the elevated plains of the Cis-Urals adjoining it extend from the shores of the Northern Arctic Ocean in the north to the semi-desert regions of Kazakhstan in the south: for more than 2500 km they separate the East European and West Siberian plains.

From natural resources of the Urals, it is of paramount importance mineral resources. The Urals has long been the largest mining and metallurgical base of the country. And in the extraction of some mineral ores, the Urals ranks first in the world. Placers of gold and deposits of platinum were found in the mountains, and precious stones were found on the eastern slope.

A couple of centuries ago, the animal world was richer than it is now. Plowing, hunting, deforestation have displaced and destroyed the habitats of many animals. Disappeared (hamsters, field mice) In the north, you can meet the inhabitants of the tundra - reindeer, and in the south, typical inhabitants of the steppes - marmots, shrews, snakes and lizards. Forests are inhabited by predators: brown bears, wolves, wolverines, foxes, sables, ermines, lynxes. Ungulates (moose, deer, roe deer, etc.) and birds are found in them various kinds. Otters and beavers are found along the river valleys. In the Ilmensky Reserve, the acclimatization of the sika deer was successfully carried out, the muskrat, beaver, deer, muskrat, raccoon dog, American mink, Barguzin sable.

The Ural Mountains consist of low ranges and massifs. The highest of them, rising above 1200-1500 m, are located in the Subpolar (Mount Narodnaya - 1895 m), Northern (Mount Telposiz - 1617 m) and Southern (Mount Yamantau - 1640 m) Urals. The massifs of the Middle Urals are much lower, usually not higher than 600-800 m. The western and eastern foothills of the Urals and the foothill plains are often dissected by deep river valleys, there are many rivers in the Urals and in the Urals.

Rivers and Lakes Rivers belong to the basins of the Arctic Ocean (on the western slope - Pechora with Usa, on the east - Tobol, Iset, Tura, Lozva, Northern Sosva, belonging to the Ob system) and the Caspian Sea (Kama with Chusovaya and Belaya; Ural River) .

Cities of the Urals There are many versions of the origin of the toponym "Ural". An analysis of the language contacts of the first Russian settlers in the region indicates that the toponym, in all likelihood, was acquired from Bashkir language. Indeed, of all the peoples of the Urals, this name has existed since ancient times only among the Bashkirs, and is supported at the level of the language, legends and traditions of this people (epos Ural-batyr). Other indigenous peoples of the Urals (Khanty, Mansi, Udmurts, Komi) have other traditional names for the Ural Mountains, adopting the name "Ural" only in XIX-XX centuries from Russian.


slide 1

Nature of the Urals

slide 2

Ural
The Urals is located at the crossroads of Europe and Asia and is the border between these regions. The stone belt of the Urals and the adjacent elevated plains of the Cis-Urals stretch from the shores of the Arctic Ocean in the north to the semi-desert regions of Kazakhstan in the south: for more than 2500 km they separate the East European and West Siberian plains.

slide 3

It is customary to distinguish five regions
Southern Urals Middle Urals Northern Urals Subpolar Urals Polar Urals

slide 4

Region boundaries
The Polar Urals is located on the border of Europe and Asia, on the territory belonging to the Komi Republic and the Yamalo-Nenets autonomous region. The conditional border of the parts of the world coincides with the border of the regions and runs mainly along the main watershed of the ridge separating the Pechora (in the west) and Ob (in the east) basins. Part of the runoff of the northern slopes falls directly on the Baidaratskaya Bay of the Arctic Ocean. The prevailing heights of the ranges are 800-1200 meters with individual peaks up to 1500 meters (Mount Payer).

slide 5

Polar Ural
The Polar Urals are distinguished by a very severe, sharp continental climate. Located on the border of the Siberian anticyclone and European cyclonic activity, the region is famous for its cold and at the same time exceptional snowy winters and strong wind. Since wet cyclones usually move towards the mountains from the west, the western slopes usually receive 2-3 times more precipitation than the eastern slopes. In winter, the air temperature can drop to -55 degrees. In clear, frosty weather, sometimes observed temperature inversion when the air temperature in the plains is 5-10 degrees lower than in the mountains. Spring and autumn are short, summer is also short, with unstable weather. Snow in the mountains mostly disappears by the end of June, and already in early September it falls again. Several days of hot weather (up to +30) can suddenly change into a sharp cold snap, accompanied by strong winds, heavy rains and hail.

slide 6

Polar Ural
The valley of the river Sob divides the Polar Urals into two parts, different in their geological structure. To the north, the width of the mountainous region reaches 125 km, at the same time, it is more intensively dissected by transverse valleys with pass heights of 200-250 meters above sea level. The western slope is steeper than the eastern one and descends more sharply to foothill depressions. South of the ridge sharply narrows (up to 25-30 km), the heights of the passes reach 500 m, and individual peaks almost 1500 m (Payer - 1499 m, Lemva-Iz - 1473 m).

Slide 7

Hydrography
There are many lakes in the Polar Urals, most of which are concentrated in cirque valleys or are of thermokarst origin. As a rule, such lakes have a small area and - due to the shallow occurrence permafrost - shallow depth. Most large lakes in the northern part of the region - Big and Small Khadata-Yugan-Lor, as well as Big and Small Shchuchye. Big Shchuchye, located in a tectonic basin, has an unprecedented depth of 136 meters for the region.

Slide 9

Bolshoe Shchuchye is a lake in the Polar Urals in the upper reaches of the Bolshaya Shchuchya River. It is the largest lake in the region in terms of area and depth.

Slide 10

Since 1997, the Pike Lakes, as well as the entire territory adjacent to them, have been assigned to the territory of the Gornokhadytinsky biological reserve.

Slide 17

The highest peak of the Polar Urals is Mount Payer. It is a mountain range consisting of several peaks: Western (South) Payer (1330 m), Payer (1499 m) and Eastern Payer (1217 m).

Slide 18

The name comes from the Nenets words pe, pay - "stone, rock" and erv - "master". On this occasion, it is worth quoting the words of E. Hoffmann, a researcher of the Ural Mountains: “This mountain, due to its height, received from the Samoyeds the magnificent name Pai-Er “Lord of the Mountains”. Indeed, Payer in this part of the Urals visually stands out among other mountains.

Slide 19

Payer reaches a height of 1499 meters above sea level

Slide 20

slide 21

The mountain is unusual for its plateau-like peak, from which sharp ridges extend to the side. On the slopes there are several glaciers and snowfields that do not have time to melt during the short and cold polar summer.

Slide 25

The inhabitants of the polar Urals
The vegetation of the Polar Urals is scarce. Taiga forests are found only in the southern part, where they grow: in the Trans-Urals - spruce and larch, in the Cis-Urals - fir and birch. In the valleys of the rivers Synya, Voikar and their tributaries, deadwood is found. Rare birch and deciduous forests can be found in the northern part of the region on the eastern slope along the river valleys. The banks of the rivers of the western slope - Pechora, Kara and their tributaries are overgrown mainly with willow bushes, polar birch, grasses and flowers. Often there are blueberries, lingonberries, cloudberries, as well as mushrooms. The only relatively common animal of the Polar Urals is the reindeer. Most of the local deer are a domestic form, which is the main wealth of the local population and overgrazing local pastures as a result of excessive breeding and overgrazing. wild reindeer in the Polar Urals today are almost exterminated. Today there are also hares and partridges. A number of brown bears have survived.

National Park "Yugyd va" (in the first place with the Komi " pure water”) was created on April 23, 1994 by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 377. It is located on the Northern and Subpolar Urals in the southeast of the Komi Republic. The total area of ​​the park is 1,891,701 ha, including the water area of ​​21,421 ha. As of 2006, it is the largest national park in Russia. The territory of the park is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site " virgin forests Komi. On South national park Yugyd va borders on the Pechoro-Ilychsky Reserve

Northern Ural
The Northern Urals - part of the Ural Mountains, extends from Kosvinsky Kamen and neighboring Konzhakovsky Kamen (59 ° N) in the south to the northern slopes of the Telposis massif, or rather, to the banks of the Shchuger River, enveloping it from the north. The Ural Range here runs strictly from south to north in several parallel ridges and ridges with a total width of up to 50-60 km. The relief is mid-mountain, with flat tops - the result of the uplift of ancient leveled mountains and the impact of subsequent glaciations and modern frosty weathering.

slide 32

Northern Ural
The Northern Urals is one of the most remote and inaccessible regions of the Urals. Bear Corner - this is the name of one of its peaks. There are almost no north of Ivdel, Vizhay and Ushma settlements and therefore expensive. Impenetrable forests and swamps approach the mountains from the east and west. The climate here is already quite severe. There are many snowfields in the mountains that do not have time to melt over the summer. There are also spots of permafrost, and up to the latitude of Konzhakovsky Stone. And although there are no glaciers in these areas, two small glaciers were found in the Telposiz mountains - the highest massif of the Northern Urals. The Northern Urals is rich in minerals.

Unique monuments of nature - weathering pillars - one of the seven wonders of the world in Russia

Slide 39

Man-pupu-ner
Weathering pillars (Mansi blockheads) - a geological monument in Russia in the Troitsko-Pechora region of the Komi Republic on the territory of the Pechoro-Ilychsky reserve on Mount Man-Pupu-ner (which in the Mansi language means "Small Mountain of Idols"), in the interfluve of the river. Ichotlyaga and Pechory. Ostantsev 7, height from 30 to 42 m. Numerous legends are associated with it, before the Pillars of Weathering were objects of the Mansi cult.

Slide 40

The history of the formation of the remnants
About 200 million years ago, in place of stone pillars were high mountains. Millennia passed. Rain, snow, wind, frost and heat gradually destroyed the mountains, and first of all the weak rocks. Hard sericite-quartzite shales, of which the remnants are composed, were destroyed less and survived to this day, while soft rocks were destroyed by weathering and carried by water and wind into relief depressions. One pillar, 34 m high, stands somewhat apart from the others; it resembles a huge bottle turned upside down. Six others lined up at the edge of the cliff. The pillars have bizarre outlines and, depending on the place of inspection, either resemble the figure of a huge man, or the head of a horse or a ram. In the past, the Mansi deified the grandiose stone sculptures, worshiped them, but climbing the Manpupuner was the greatest sin.


Geographical position The territory of the Urals is located between the great rivers Volga-Kama and Ob-Irtysh. From west to east, the Urals are conditionally divided into three parts. The first part is the Western Urals, or Cis-Urals, Cis-Urals. Here the western foothills of the Ural Mountains gradually pass into the Russian Plain. The second part is the Ural Range, or the Ural Mountains. The Ural Range from north to south is divided into Polar, Subpolar, Northern, Middle and Southern. The third part is the Trans-Urals. The eastern slope of the Ural Range breaks off with a ledge into the West Siberian Lowland.


Relief In the relief of the Urals, two bands of foothills (western and eastern) and a system of mountain ranges located between them, elongated parallel to each other in a submeridional direction, corresponding to the strike of tectonic zones, are clearly distinguished. There may be two or three such ridges, but in some places their number increases, up to six or eight. The ridges are separated from each other by extensive depressions along which rivers flow. As a rule, ridges correspond to anticlinal folds composed of older and more durable rocks, while depressions correspond to synclinal ones.


The Ural Mountains are located in the north-west of Russia. They lie between the East European and West Siberian plains. The length of the Ural Range is more than 2000 kilometers, the width is from 40 to 150 km. The most high point Ural - Mount Narodnaya (1895 m.). The Ural Mountains were formed in the late Paleozoic during the era of intensive mountain building (Hercynian folding). Formation mountain system The Urals began in the late Devonian (about 350 million years ago) and ended in the Triassic (about 200 million years ago). In ancient sources, the Ural Mountains are called the Riphean or Hyperborean mountains. Russian pioneers called it Stone, under the name Ural these mountains were first mentioned in Russian sources at the end of the 17th century.


Climate The climate of the Urals is typical mountainous; Precipitation is unevenly distributed not only over the regions, but also within each region. The West Siberian Plain is a territory with a harsh continental climate; in the meridional direction, its continentality increases much less sharply than on the Russian Plain. Mountain climate Western Siberia less continental than the climate of the West Siberian Plain. Interestingly, within the same zone on the plains of the Cis-Urals and Trans-Urals natural conditions noticeably different. This is explained by the fact that the Ural Mountains serve as a kind of climatic barrier. To the west of them, more precipitation falls, the climate is more humid and mild; to the east, that is, beyond the Urals, there is less precipitation, the climate is drier, with pronounced continental features. The climate of the Urals is varied. The mountains are stretched for 2000 km in the meridional direction, and the northern part of the Urals is located in the Arctic and receives solar radiation much less than the southern part of the Urals, located south of 55 degrees north latitude.


Northern Urals This region is wider and higher than the Middle Urals (up to 1600 m). The area is located in a mountainous area covered with forests. The climate is more severe. The area is sparsely populated. The Pechoro-Ilychsky and Vishera (the fourth largest in Europe) reserves are located in the Northern Urals. There are a lot of berries and mushrooms in the forests, fish is well caught in the rivers. Tourist routes pass through uninhabited areas in full autonomy.


Central Urals This is the narrowest and lowest (up to 1000 m) part of the Urals. The area is in the zone coniferous forests(spruce, pine, larch). The Middle Urals is densely populated, the transport network and industry are developed, and business tourism is widely developed.


Southern Urals This is the widest part of the Urals. The eastern slopes are characterized by forest-steppe with numerous lakes, the western slopes up to a height of 1200 m are covered with forest, in the southern part - the steppe. In July and August, the clearest and warm weather. Karst phenomena are developed on the western slope. The area is densely populated, with well-developed rail and road communications.
