August 22, 2023. «Applied Sciences» has published an article «Electronic Atlas of Climatic Changes in the Western Russian Arctic in 1950–2021 as Geoinformatic Support of Railway Development» by Alexei D. Gvishiani, Igor N. Rozenberg, Anatoly A. Soloviev, Andrey G. Kostianoy, Sofia A. Gvozdik, Ilya V. Serykh, Roman I. Krasnoperov, Nikolay V. Sazonov, Irina A. Dubchak, Anton B. Popov, Evgenia A. Kostianaia, and Georgy A. Gvozdik.

The article details the production of the digital atlas comprising the 1950–2021 dynamics of the main hydrometeorological parameters in the Western Russian Arctic. This is the first experience of building a specialized climatic cartographic product for the needs of the Russian railways. In the future, the experience may be transferred to other regions of the Russian Federation as well as similar regions in Canada, Sweden and Highland China that are also subject to significant climate change.
