Paractinolaimus sahandi n. sp., found in wet soil samples collected from the rhizosphere of grasses of Sahand Mountains, Iran, is described. This new species is characterized by its long body (3.5-4.7 mm), high a value (74.5-88.5), anterior location of posterior subventral nuclei, occupying 62.5-68.0% of glandularium distance, the presence of 1-4 pre- and 1-3 post-vulval papillae and numerous t...

by Sahand Golnarian Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication with different requirements than human based applications has gained interest in the past few years. Due to battery limitations of devices in most M2M applications, energy efficiency, defined as the number of information bits transmitted per unit energy, is utilized as a utility function instead of a sum-throughput, a traditional utilit...

in this study, the quaternary deformation and tectonic activity of saeedabad-chai drainage basin, are assessed using geomorphic approach. this drainage basin is located in northern slope of sahand mountain. north tabriz fault (ntf), is passing from the saeedabad-chai basin. variation in the morphology of mountain front provied the basis for geomorphic assessment of tectonic activity. therefore,...

the aim of this study is assessing and mapping landslide susceptibility in watershed of semiarid mountain areas. saeedabad-chai watershd is located on the northwest of iran and the north of sahand mountain. this study is using bivariate statistical analysis (bsa), weights-of-evidence (woe),gis. the results of this assessment show that causative factors as slope (∑wæ’= + 3.965), landuse(∑wæ’...
