Spatial Analysis of variation of inter-annual distribution of precipitation in Iran over recent decades (1970-2016)
Introduction Geographical situation of Iran is a place for interacting many physical and human processes which lead to specific precipitation climatology in the country. The month to month variation of precipitation is one of the features which the precipitation climatology may reflect due to tempo - spatial characteristics. In fact, monthly distribution of precipitation is one of precipitati...
متن کاملEvaluation of eutrophication in the Ria Formosa coastal lagoon, Portugal
The Ria Formosa is a shallow mesotidal lagoon on the south coast of Portugal, with natural biogeochemical cycles essentially regulated by tidal exchanges at the seawater boundaries and at the sediment interface. Existing data on nutrients in the water column and the sediment, together with chlorophyll a and oxygen saturation in the water column, are compared using different models for assessing...
متن کاملDirect SW aerosol radiative forcing over Portugal
The estimation of radiative forcing due to desert dust and forest fires aerosols is a very important issue since these particles are very efficient at scattering and absorbing both short and longwave radiation. In this work, the evaluation of the aerosol radiative forcing at the top of the atmosphere over the south of Portugal is made, particularly in 5 the regions ofÉvora and of Cabo da Roca. ...
متن کاملBottom-Up Control of Macrobenthic Communities in a Guanotrophic Coastal System
Soft bottom macrobenthic communities were studied seasonally in three coastal ponds (Marinello ponds, Italy) at increasing distances from a gull (Larus michahellis) colony to investigate the effect of seabird-induced eutrophication (i.e. guanotrophication) on macrobenthic fauna. We hypothesized that enhanced nutrient concentration and organic load caused by guano input significantly alter the t...
متن کاملAnnual sediment primary production and respiration in a large coral reef lagoon (SW New Caledonia)
Sediment photosynthetic production and community respiration were investigated for 1 yr in the south-west lagoon of New Caledonia (surface area: 2000 km'; mean depth: 21 m). Metabolic fluxes were measuredbat the water-sediment interface using benthic enclosures, at 60 sampling stations randomly distributed in space and time. Mean gross primary production (Pg) was 12.06 mol C m-' yr-l. Mean resp...
