What natural zone is Kirovo Chepetsk located in? "My city

The sun is the source of life on the planet. Its rays provide the necessary light and warmth. At the same time, the ultraviolet radiation of the Sun is detrimental to all living things. To find a compromise between the beneficial and harmful properties of the sun, meteorologists calculate the index of ultraviolet radiation, which characterizes the degree of its danger.

What UV radiation from the Sun is

Ultraviolet radiation from the Sun has a wide range and is divided into three regions, two of which reach the Earth.

  • UV-A. Long-wavelength radiation range
    315-400 nm

    The rays pass almost freely through all atmospheric "barriers" and reach the Earth.

  • UV-B. Medium wavelength range
    280-315 nm

    The rays are 90% absorbed by the ozone layer, carbon dioxide and water vapor.

  • UV-C. Shortwave range
    100-280 nm

    The most dangerous area. They are completely absorbed by stratospheric ozone before reaching the Earth.

The more ozone, clouds and aerosols in the atmosphere, the less the harmful effects of the Sun. However, these saving factors have a high natural variability. The annual maximum of stratospheric ozone is in the spring, and the minimum is in the fall. Cloudiness is one of the most variable characteristics of weather. The carbon dioxide content also changes all the time.

At what values ​​of the UV index is there a danger

The UV Index gives an estimate of the amount of UV radiation from the Sun at the Earth's surface. UV Index values ​​range from safe 0 to extreme 11+.

  • 0 - 2 Low
  • 3 - 5 Moderate
  • 6 - 7 High
  • 8 - 10 Very high
  • 11+ Extreme

At mid-latitudes, the UV index approaches unsafe values ​​(6–7) only at the maximum height of the Sun above the horizon (occurs in late June - early July). At the equator, the UV index reaches 9 ... 11+ points throughout the year.

Why the sun is useful

In small doses, UV radiation from the Sun is essential. The sun's rays synthesize melanin, serotonin, vitamin D necessary for our health, and prevent rickets.

Melanin creates a kind of protective barrier for skin cells from the harmful effects of the sun. Because of it, our skin darkens and becomes more elastic.

The hormone of happiness serotonin affects our well-being: it improves mood and increases overall vitality.

Vitamin D strengthens the immune system, stabilizes blood pressure and has antirachitic functions.

Why the sun is dangerous

Taking sun baths, it is important to understand that the line between beneficial and harmful Sun is very thin. Excessive tanning always borders on a burn. Ultraviolet radiation damages DNA in skin cells.

The body's defense system cannot cope with such an aggressive effect. It lowers immunity, damages the retina of the eyes, causes aging of the skin, and can lead to cancer.

Ultraviolet light destroys the DNA chain

How the sun affects people

Susceptibility to UV radiation depends on skin type. People of the European race are most sensitive to the Sun - for them protection is required already at index 3, and 6 is considered dangerous.

At the same time, for Indonesians and African Americans, this threshold is 6 and 8, respectively.

Who is most affected by the Sun

    People with light
    skin tone

    People with many moles

    Mid-latitude residents on holiday in the south

    Winter lovers
    fishing

    Alpine skiers and climbers

    People with a family history of skin cancer

In what weather is the sun more dangerous

It is a common misconception that the Sun is dangerous only in hot and clear weather. You can get burnt even in cool cloudy weather.

Cloudiness, no matter how dense it may be, does not at all reduce the amount of ultraviolet radiation to zero. In mid-latitudes, cloudiness significantly reduces the risk of sunburn, which is not the case with traditional beach destinations. For example, in the tropics, if in sunny weather you can get sunburned in 30 minutes, in cloudy weather - in a couple of hours.

How to protect yourself from the sun

To protect yourself from destructive rays, follow these simple rules:

    Stay less in the Sun at midday hours

    Wear light-colored clothing, including wide-brimmed hats

    Use protective creams

    Wear sunglasses

    You are more in the shade on the beach

Which sunscreen to choose

Sunscreen varies in degree of sun protection and is labeled from 2 to 50+. The numbers indicate the proportion of solar radiation that overcomes the protection of the cream and reaches the skin.

For example, when applying a cream labeled 15, only 1/15 (or 7%) of the UV rays will penetrate the protective film. In the case of cream 50 - only 1/50, or 2%, affect the skin.

Sunscreen creates a reflective layer on the body. At the same time, it is important to understand that no cream is capable of reflecting 100% of ultraviolet radiation.

For everyday use, when the time spent under the sun does not exceed half an hour, a cream with protection 15 is quite suitable. For sunbathing on the beach, it is better to take 30 or more. However, for light-skinned people it is recommended to use a cream labeled 50+.

How to apply sunscreen

The cream should be applied evenly to all exposed skin, including the face, ears and neck. If you plan to sunbathe long enough, then the cream should be applied twice: 30 minutes before going out and, additionally, before going to the beach.

Specify the required amount for application in the instructions of the cream.

How to apply sunscreen when swimming

Sunscreen should be applied every time you bathe. Water washes away the protective film and, reflecting the sun's rays, increases the dose of ultraviolet radiation received. Thus, when bathing, the risk of sunburn increases. However, due to the cooling effect, you may not feel the burn.

Excessive sweating and towel drying is also a reason to re-protect your skin.

It should be remembered that on the beach, even under an umbrella, the shade does not provide adequate protection. Sand, water and even grass reflect up to 20% of UV rays, increasing their effect on the skin.

How to protect your eyes

Sunlight bouncing off water, snow, or sand can cause painful retinal burns. Use UV-filtered sunglasses to protect your eyes.

Danger for skiers and climbers

In the mountains, the atmospheric "filter" is thinner. For every 100 meters of altitude, the UV index increases by 5%.

Snow reflects up to 85% of UV rays. In addition, up to 80% of the ultraviolet reflected by the snow cover is again reflected by the clouds.

Thus, the Sun is most dangerous in the mountains. Protecting your face, lower chin and ears is essential even in cloudy weather.

How to deal with sunburn if you are burned

    Sponge your body with a damp sponge to dampen the burn

    Apply an anti-burn cream to the burned areas.

    If the temperature rises, consult a doctor, you may be advised to take an antipyretic

    If the burn is severe (the skin is very swollen and blistering), seek medical attention

History

In the vicinity of Kirovo-Chepetsk, there are settlements of people from the Mesolithic era - the 7th millennium BC. Upstream of the Cheptsa, in Krivoborye, there was an ancient settlement of the Ananyino archaeological culture. In 1992, during shore protection works, an excavator bucket removed a layer of earth, exposing, as archaeologists later established, a burial at the end of the 13th century. The environs of the future Kirovo-Chepetsk began to be populated by Russians, more precisely, by the Old Russian population, back in the 12th century. By this time (XII-XV centuries) archaeological monuments discovered in the vicinity of the city - Krivoborskoe settlement and Ust-Chepetsky burial ground - belong. This area since that time was part of the Vyatka land. The first news of the settlement of Russian people at the mouth of the Cheptsa dates back to 1405. For the first time, "Chepetsky Stan", on the territory of which Kirovo-Chepetsk is now located and the "capital" of which in those years was Ust-Chepetsky Pogost, is mentioned in the letter of gratitude from Vasily III to the Karin Tatar Devlechyar dated December 18, 1510. And the churchyard itself is described in the fiscal watch book of the Vyatka cities and counties of Prince Zvenigorodsky in 1615. On July 1, 1615, he had three churches - the warm Rozhdestvensko-Bogoroditskaya with the Peter and Paul side-altar, the cold Nikolskaya and Georgievskaya "under the bell tower", of which Nikolskaya was considered the main one. In 1615-1629, the Ust-Chepetsky churchyard developed as an administrative and cult center of the Chepetsky camp of the Khlynovsky district. It occupied an insignificant territory, on which there were more than 20 courtyards. In 1786 there were 248 households in the village, in 1805 there were 313 households, the population was 1506 people. In 1926 there were 741 inhabitants in the village. The growth of the village and the increase in its population was facilitated by the discovery in 1929 of large reserves of peat in its vicinity.

A Vyatka settlement was discovered in the Kirovo-Chepetsk region. The sites of the ancient people of the Azelinsky and Ananyinsky times were found not far from the city.

Krivoborskoe settlement stretches for 0.3 hectares. Archaeologists who have studied the finds and remains of buildings believe that the settlement dates back to the XII-XIV centuries. After the research, scientists have established that there was a security post in the ancient Vyatka city of Nikulitsyn.

During excavations, archaeologists found many arrowheads, knives, an ax wedge, and other iron objects. Among the valuable finds are a primitive spindle and earthenware made by ancient Russian craftsmen.

Kirovo-Chepetsk is a small town in the Kirov region. The status of the city of Kirovo-Chepetsk received in 1955, in connection with the construction of the Kirovo-Chepetsk chemical plant. Since its foundation, a mineral fertilizer plant has also appeared in the city. Thus, Kirovo-Chepetsk appears to tourists in the form of a classic small industrial city.

However, during its short history, the city has managed to collect several unique attractions that attract tourists.

The city's attractions:


At the entrance to the city from Kirov, a unique stele was installed; it appeared on this place back in 1990. The stele has a height 20 m, it depicts a couple holding a shield with chemical signs. The creators of this stele wanted to show that Kirovo-Chepetsk is a city of young chemists.

The stele is the unofficially recognized patroness and protector of the city. Many legends are associated with its construction - some researchers believe that it was created back in 1976. Quite serious research is being conducted on this topic.


Coming to a new city, tourists want to get acquainted with its history. In Kirovo-Chepetsk, this can be done by visiting the museum and exhibition center, which arose in the city in 1960, at the initiative of the director of the chemical plant J.F. Tereshchenko. Tourists are presented with several halls that tell about the city and the region. For example, halls on the history of the 19th and 20th centuries are open for tourists.

The fund of the museum contains more than a thousand exhibits, most of which were donated by local residents. The museum works every day, has a website where you can find all the latest information about the work of the organization.


On the site of the city, there used to be the village of Ust-Cheptsa, which was famous for its churches, however, with the advent of Soviet power, all the churches were destroyed. It was only in 1989 that the decision was made to restore one of the most beautiful cathedrals in the Vyatka river valley, the All Saints Cathedral, built of red brick, according to the old plans.

The cathedral stands on a small hill with a beautiful view of the city and the Vyatka River. A small but very picturesque embankment starts from the temple.

At the church in the early nineties, a Sunday school was opened, which, like the cathedral, is still active today. Anyone can go to the building of the evening school, visit its library and get acquainted with religious books.


The city also has a church that stands out among the entire ensemble of architecture - the Church of the Grace of Evangelical Christians-Baptists. Due to the peculiarities of beliefs, the church is completely different from ordinary Orthodox churches - it appears to the guests of the city as a building made in the postmodern style - a red brick building with huge windows of bizarre shapes. The church fits perfectly into the natural look in which it was installed.


Since Kirovo-Chepetsk is an industrial city, factories occupy the main part of its attractions. The most attractive plant, from a tourist point of view, is ZMU, which is justified by the fact that it is the first thing that tourists see when they enter the city.


Another interesting attraction associated with the city's industry is the building of the meat-processing plant "Absolute", built in the late Gothic style and this is strikingly different from the entire ensemble of the city. Despite the fact that it takes a very long time to get to it, it is a very interesting building, next to which you can get wonderful photos, so it is worth a visit. In addition, there is a shop of its own products at the factory, so tourists can buy delicious sausages here.


Moving on to urban architecture, first of all I would like to note the so-called house "on chicken legs", which meets tourists at the entrance to the city (it is located right behind the stele described above).

During the construction of the house, the architects decided to set up a kind of experiment - they decided to install it on supports, which, with the light hand of local residents, were called "chicken legs". The house is also interesting for its internal layout - it is a residential building with two-storey apartments, an abundance of windows, unoccupied technical floors, two elevators (passenger and cargo) and only one staircase. This house is a classic example of the work of Soviet architects who tried in every possible way to complicate their designs.


An important element of any Soviet city is the "Eternal Flame" memorial. In Kirovo-Chepetsk, it is no different from those that are present in any other regional center of Russia. It is noteworthy that nearby, in 2006, a memorial sign appeared in honor of the participants in the liquidation of the consequences of the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant - in 1986, more than 6 thousand people were sent to Pripyat.

By the way, the city hall was against the installation of this sign, and therefore the locals installed it secretly on the night of April 25-26, 2006.


Another monument dedicated to military history meets tourists at the intersection of Kirov Avenue and Gorky Street - in 2007, an infantry fighting vehicle was installed here in honor of the residents of the region who died during military conflicts.

The names of 14 residents of Kirovo-Chepetsk who died in Afghanistan are engraved on the granite slabs next to the BMP. Several times a year, on memorable dates, rallies are held here.


Walking around the city, it is impossible to pass by the building of the Palace of Culture "Druzhba" and the small square in front of it.

First of all, DK "Druzhba" is striking by the decision of the architects, built in 1952, it looks much more ancient, thanks to the white columns and the general burgundy color of the building. Also next to the recreation center there are several statues, which, in general, gives the building the appearance of an antique temple or a building of the era of classicism. However, the Sickle and Hammer are installed on the square - symbols of Soviet power.

If possible, tourists should go to the reporting concerts of the creative associations of the Palace of Culture, since they are one of the most successful in the region.


Near another house of culture there is an unusual fountain, inside of which unique statues appear before tourists. Currently, the fountain is under reconstruction, and tourists have the opportunity to see the statues - in the center of the exposition there are two naked girls, whose hands are intertwined. They symbolize two rivers flowing and merging within the city - Cheptsa and Vyatka. Those tourists who want to see the operating fountain should go to the Cleopatra restaurant.


Located outside the city limits, the recreation area creates all the conditions for health-improving recreation - a sanatorium, houses, beaches, a bathhouse, a swimming pool, a sports ground and barbecue grills have been built. Artificial reservoirs and unique waterfalls create an incredible atmosphere conducive to wellness. In winter, this place also works, turning into a ski resort that is loved by locals and visitors to the city.

Krivoborskoe cemetery

Those tourists who are interested in earlier history are advised to visit the Krivoborskoye cemetery - a complex of finds dating back to the XII-XIV centuries. Researchers suggest that the old Vyatka settlement Nikulitsyn was located on the site of the cemetery. During the excavations, archaeologists found household items of the Vyatichi - all these findings became exhibits of the museum and exhibition hall. The remains of the ancient settlement appear before tourists at the Krivoborskoye cemetery.


I would also like to say separately about the sights that you can safely visit with your children. First of all, tourists with children should visit the zoo located in the city park. It was founded in 2008 by private entrepreneurs. The zoo is open all year round and invites its guests to look at various species of animals and birds. A private zoo is a unique example of how you can arrange a city with your own hands, and it also shows how much the locals love their city. The zoo is open to tourists only on weekdays.


The alley runs from the building of the central administration of the city to Prospekt Mira. In the summer season, almost all residents of the city spend their leisure time here, since a large number of plantings and comfortable benches simply cannot but delight the eye.

At first glance, Kirovo-Chepetsk may seem like a faceless city - erected only in the middle of the twentieth century, the center of the chemical industry of the Kirov region does not make tourists want to visit. However, the external facelessness is deceiving - Kirovo-Chepetsk has a huge number of unique attractions that will not leave indifferent even the most inveterate tourist.
