Extended abstract 1- INTRODUCTION The contribution of crop cover to reducing runoff and erosion depends on the type, height, density and stage of plant growth. The literature review indicates that because of the different life forms, the effect of plants on the reduction of runoff and erosion are different at different growth stages [13]. However, no comprehensive studies have been conduc...

Appropriate use of rangelands, creates vegetation stability, prevents degradation and improves their suitability  conditio. Determination of allowable level of vegetation utilization of the species could lead to plan for the proper distribution of livestock on rangeland. To measure the level of use, a 0.5 ha exclosure was established in Karsanak site before the start of the growing season in 20...

"Technical Report" The quality of coastal water resources at the downstream of watersheds is decreasing mainly due to different anthropogenic activities. In this research, temporal variations of groundwater quality were investigated in a 25000 ha coastal area in Mazandaran province. Groundwater samples were taken from 37 observation wells in the region before (winter 2009), during (spring ...

abstract target-oriented approaches to translation studies are regarded as recent theories of translation. one of the most famous theories among these approaches is descriptive translation studies presented by toury (1995). this theory gives a new dimension to translation studies and gives importance to the descriptive rather than prescriptive studies. it also identifies three sets of transla...

Dates of start and end of frost based on minimum shelter temperature equal to or less than 0°C were studied in Zanjan, Ghazvin and Tehran during 1961-2000. The cause of these frosts was determined by weather parameter values at observation hours and the aid of synoptic maps. Frost series based upon last spring or first fall advection are defined and found to be random and normally distributed. ...
