Abstract

The study of bioclimatic conditions in the Far Eastern Federal District with the aim of ensuring a regionally specific approach to the development and justification of preventive measures seems relevant and significant.

Objective. To study the level of bioclimatic comfort in the subjects of the Far Eastern Federal District.

Materials and methods. A retrospective analytical study was conducted. An integrated assessment of climatic features of the macroregion territories was carried out based on the study of average annual values of the Bioclimatic Index of Severity of Climatic Regime (BISCR) and normal equivalent effective temperature. The characteristics of the level and dynamics of the analyzed indicators in the subjects of the Far Eastern Federal District in the period from 2013 to 2023 are given.

Results. By the level of bioclimatic comfort, the leading positions were held by Primorsky Krai and Jewish Autonomous Oblast; the last places were occupied by the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), Magadan Oblast, and Chukotka Autonomous District in both analyzed indicators. The average rate of increase in the Bioclimatic Index of  Severity of Climatic Regime (BISCR) in all regions ranged from -0.82 to 0.01%, which indicates the stability of its level. The average rate of increase (decrease) in normal equivalent effective temperature showed a moderate decrease in the study period in the Jewish Autonomous Oblast (-1.06), Primorsky Krai (-1.50), and Sakhalin Oblast (-1.53).

Conclusion. The obtained data can serve as a scientific basis for further study of regional risk factors for public health disorders.
