OKHOTSK-III EARTHQUAKE 24.05.2013 with Mwreg=8.3, I0=6 (Sea of Okhotsk)
The strongest deep earthquake on May 24, 2013 (Mwreg=8.3) is discussed. It occurred under the Sea of Okhotsk at a depth of about 630 km. The instrumental hypocenter location reported by the KB GS RAS is φ=54.75N, λ=153.78E, h=630 km. Three magnitudes were obtained: local magnitude ML=7.8, code-wave magnitude Mc=7.6, moment magnitude Mwreg=8.3.

Nesting ecology of an ice‐associated seabird, Kittlitz's murrelet, at the northern edge of its range
We studied the Kittlitz's murrelet, an ice‐associated seabird of conservation concern, at the northern edge of its range. Over a 2‐year period, we estimated nest density and success at 2 sites, captured and telemetered nesting murrelets, and tested the use of a thermal camera to improve nest detection.

Decadal Rapid Change in Energetic Carrying Capacity for Juvenile Chum Salmon in the Sanriku Coast
ABSTRACT Adult returns to coastal rivers in Sanriku, located near the southernmost area of chum salmon distribution, have declined since 2010. Climate‐induced fluctuations in juvenile prey availability may affect growth and survival, which are linked to adult returns.
