background: the main threats to human health from heavy metals are associated with exposure to plumb (pb), cadmium, mercury, and arsenic. some hazards that threat human health are the results of environmental factors and the relevant pollutions. some important categories of diseases including (cancers) have considerable differences in various places, as observed in their spatial prevalence and ...

The taxonomy, morphology and distribution of  rust species on Arundineae (Poaceae) in Iran was studied. Five species of Puccinia viz. P. magnusiana Körn., P. phragmitis (Schumach.)Körn., P. isiacae G. Winter, P. trabutii Roum. & Sacc. and P. akiyoshidanensis Morim. are described and illustrated. Of these, Puccinia akiyoshidanensis is considered as a distinct species and newly recorded for Irani...

A functional composition of the cumulative distribution function of one probability distribution with the inverse cumulative distribution function of another is called the transmutation map. In this article, we will use the quadratic rank transmutation map (QRTM) in order to generate a flexible family of probability distributions taking Lindley-geometric distribution as the base value distribut...

The uniform distribution of the trace map lends itself very well to the construction of binary and non-binary codes from Galois fields and Galois rings. In this paper we study the distribution of the trace map with the argument ax over the Galois field GF (p, 2). We then use this distribution to construct two-weight, self-orthogonal, trace codes.

as a medium between people and the city, urbanscape makes a mental connection between individuals and their surroundings. it is usually difficult to conceive this mental relationship and its corresponding processes with usual methods. this study seeks to address the mental aspects of urbanscape and highlight its role and importance by using an innovative method. in this study, map-based methods...
