global warming has brought about changes in meteorological variable time series. these changes, accompanied with serious human intervention in nature, has resulted in hydrological changes. so the effects can be tracked down by the trend of the time series. the purpose of this study is to analyze and compare the monthly and annual trends of temperature, precipitation as well as stream flow time ...

in the current investigation, evaporation and transpiration potential were also estimated by means of fao penman- monteith evapotranspiration estimation method and deviation from optimum percentage (dop) technique by climatic elements (min-max temperature, relative humidity, wind speed and radiation) during at least 10 years statistical period regarding sunflower phenological conditions in kurd...

introduction temperature effects on human activities and natural processes are undeniable. temperature increase, in particular, in the form of heat waves affects all facets of life including architecture, welfare, transport, agriculture and industry. when the intensity and frequency of the waves are high, they can produce major problems. in recent years, the number and intensity of these heat w...

quercus persica and pistacia mutica are two known and prevalent forest trees of baneh and marivan from kurdistan province (w iran). thirty-five fungal isolates were obtained from 50 bark samples of q. persica collected in sept. and mar. 2010–11. the aim of this study was to identify fungi associated with oak trees of kurdistan province. based on morphological features and authentic keys (ellis ...

BACKGROUND Reported age standardized incidence rates for esophageal cancer in Iran are 0.88 and 6.15 for females and males, at fifth and the eighth ranks, respectively, of cancers overall. The present study aimed to map relative risk using more realistic and less problematic methods than common estimators. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this ecological investigation, the studied population consiste...

BACKGROUND Evidence shows ethnic-inequality is a very effective variable in the Community and individual health associated outcomes. This study focused on gaining a deeper understanding of people's perception on inequality of health in Iranian-Kurds and its determinants. METHODS The study was conducted in the three cities of Marivan, Sanandaj (capital of Kurdistan province in Iran) and Tehran...

1. introduction climate is a large system which is produced due to the relation and action between other large systems. if a change occurs in one of these systems, other systems will coordinate themselves with the change fast or slowly. the consequences of this coordination will impress the system that is starter of this change and an endless continuum of the links connects these systems togeth...
