Abstract
The little-studied issue of Russian historiography on the activities of scientific institutions for the study of fish and fish resources of the Arctic territories of the Yamalo–Nenets District in the pre-war decade (1931–1941) is considered. The focus is on All-Union scientific organizations and the regional branch (station) in Tobolsk, whose expeditionary activities are systematized and presented in a problematic chronological order. The greatest attention is paid to ichthyological studies aimed at studying the fish and fish resources of the Gulf of Ob and Gydan Bay.
The purpose is to identify scientific institutions, systematize and analyze factual material about the research activities of expeditions and individual scientists, to determine the results of the study of fish and fish resources of the Yamal North in the pre–war decade (1931–1941). The article is based on the source materials of ichthyologists published in the pre-war decade and post-war years, the authors of which were E. K. Suvorov, E. V. Burmakin, I. G. Yudanov, M. P. Saldau. The goal set in the article was solved on the basis of the integrated use of the possibilities of problem-chronological, historical-comparative, structural-systemic research methods.
The factors have been identified, and the features that have influenced the scale and vectors of research in the region under consideration have been identified. Scientific institutions, expeditions, and research work carried out by them were identified; the importance of the results of expeditions for expanding fundamental and applied knowledge on ichthyology and the state of fish resources by the beginning of the Great Patriotic War was determined.
