The purpose of present study was determination of number changes of mast cells in a honey treated experimental model of third degree burn. A third degree burn was made in 24 adult female rats by direct contact of skin with boiling water for 8 seconds. Rats were divided randomly into four groups. Group 1: Burns of this group remained untreated (control group). Groups 2 and 3: Burns of these grou...

The errors in the first-guess (forecast field) of an analysis system vary from day to day, but, as in all current operational data assimilation systems, forecast error covariances are assumed to be constant in time in the NCEP operational three-dimensional variational analysis system (known as a spectral statistical interpolation or SSI). This study focuses on the impact of modifying the error ...

The cranberry fruitworm (Acrobasis vaccinii Riley), sparganothis fruitworm (Sparganothis sulfureana Clemens), and blackheaded fireworm (Rhopobota naevana Hübner) are historically significant pests of cranberries (Vaccinium macrocarpon Aiton) in the Upper Midwest (Wisconsin), USA. Their respective natural histories are well documented but correlations between developmental benchmarks (e.g., larv...

in order to investigate of quality and quantity yield and growing degree day (gdd) of plantago ovata and p. psyllium related to water stress and density, two experiments were conducted at the agriculture research field, tehran university, karaj, in april 2005 and 2006. the experiments were designed in factorial experiments based in randomized completely block (rcb) with three replication in whi...

estimating snow melt water equivalent is one of the most important challenges in determining the hydrological regime in mountainous basins. there are some problematic obstacles in field observations, due to inaccessibility as well due to difficulties in snow sampling at snow covered peaks making researchers try to find indirect approaches. one of these methods in use is degree- day model that i...

weather and climatic parameters and their impact on farming plants are one of the foremost effective factors on improvement of crop yield. the potential facilities of various regions may be determined with agroclimatic study and exploit maximally from these facilities. in order to evaluate agroclimate of colza cultivation throughout the selected substations at hamedan province in this current i...

objective: understanding climate effects on crop yield has been a continuous endeavor aiming at improving farming technology and management strategy, minimizing negative climate effects, and maximizing positive climate effects on yield. methods: in order to evaluate agroclimate of corn cultivation throughout the selected substations at kermanshah province in this current investigation, the stat...
