given the strategic remarkable rank of pistachio in non-oil exports, inputs’ management in its production is so important. as the scarcest input in agricultural sector, water is considered to be among the most important inputs of pistachio production.water inadequate supply and limate conditions increase water demand in pistachio growing areas. it is necessary to determine the real value or pri...

the kasian volcanic body is located in the eastern margin of the zagros thrust belt, close to the sanandaj-sirjan metamorphic zone. these volcanic rocks are mainly composed of andesite and andesite-basalt rocks with porphyritic, hypocrystalline porphyritic, hyalo-porphyritic and hyalo-microlitic porphyritic textures. analyses of the distributions of major, rare earth and trace elements reveal a...

in order to investigate deformation history preserved in the calcite twins in the hinterland of zagros, several samples have been collected from calcschists of the paleozoic sargaz complex in the faryab area, se iran. these samples are related to f1-recumbent folding and thrust shear zones. the twin width is about 1 and 3.8 µm (thin-twin regime); the twin strain amounts 5 and 10%; twin intensit...

marbles containing high-pressure mineral assemblage was found from the sanandaj-sirjan metamorphic belt in the nahavand area in western iran.  the high-pressure marbles occur as small bodies or lenses within pelitic schist layers and show compositional banding of carbonate- and silicate- rich bands.  textural analysis revealed two metamorphic stages.  the early stage is testified by relicts of ...

At the south of Bardsir, Kerman province, Iran, southeastern part Urmia-Dokhtar magmatic arc (UDMA), a large number gabbroic intrusions are intruded into Eocene lava flows and pyroclastic rocks with form small stocks dykes. In this paper, geochemical variations, evolutions, origin these investigated. The studied characterized by fine-grained margins resulting from rapid cooling flow differentia...
