Management of Fluctuation of Financial and Economic Integrated Development of Innovative Enterprise

The main purpose of this article is to study the fluctuation management of financial and economic performance of innovative enterprises’ activity comprehensively in the context of their effective integrated development. The study found that achieving a high level of management of integrated enterprise development by fluctuation indicators, is possible when evaluating the effectiveness of functioning on the basis of a range of methods of improvement the quality management of integrated development of the enterprise on the fluctuation indicators, resource allocation in order to reduce the level of fluctuation of expectations in the process of integrated development between enterprise and stakeholders using a set of basic and additional features to ensure efficiency of the development management at a high level and corresponding changes in key indicators, as well as maintain the balance in the form of alternatives in the disturbing effects of internal and external environmental factors of the enterprise. The life cycle of fluctuation of key indicators of integrated development of the enterprise with separation of three zones of fluctuation of key indicators of integrated development are considered: synchronicity, pleziochrony, disintegration, as well as opposite fluctuations of key indicators, depending on their parity level (low, medium, high) and stages of the cycle. The sources of financing of innovative activity of industrial enterprises are analysed. The results of the conducted researches were used to construct the synchrony matrix of the processes of integrated development of innovative enterprises taking into consideration the fluctuation of key financial and economic indicators. It is determined that Ukraine has considerable potential for innovation activity, however, there are many problems arising in the way of activation and realization of innovative activity of domestic companies. It is established that the management of fluctuation of financial and economic indicators of the integrated development of innovative enterprises will help to increase the efficiency of their activity and to integrate the processes of development both within the company and beyond. The ways of solving the problems of integrated development of domestic innovative enterprises are suggested

Effect of round goby (Neogobius melanostomus) invasion on blue mussel (Mytilus edulis trossulus) population and winter diet of the long-tailed duck (Clangula hyemalis)

The invasive round goby has established a viable population within 9 years of its first introduction to Lithuanian coastal waters (SE Baltic Sea). During its expansion phase, abundances increased 23-fold, which led to the near complete eradication of its main prey, the blue mussel, at < 20 m depth. The round goby population showed a stabilizing trend after blue mussel biomass was depleted; however, their abundance has not declined. The round goby feeds efficiently on newly settled mollusks, causing a severe constraint for blue mussel recovery. Changes in blue mussel availability and size structure induced a dietary shift in wintering long-tailed duck towards fish prey. An energetically dense food source sustains a good body condition in long-tailed ducks, however the change in trophic position (from 3.1 to 4.3 trophic level) suggests the potential for a reduction in their carrying capacity. Results from this study also show that coastal habitats with low and unpredictable population dynamics of blue mussel become less attractive wintering sites for long-tailed duck in the Baltic Sea. We also document a cascading effect of invasive species in the food web
