Abstract This article investigates the history of economic relations between Iran and Parsi community India during Reza Shah period. Encouraged by policies new Pahlavi state, entrepreneurs began a serious effort to investigate possibilities investment in Iran. The details three missions that were conducted this period, analyzes their assessments Iran's potential for development fields such as e...

there were pivotal elements in 1978's islamic revolution of iran playing such roles which led to the derogation of pahlavi government on one hand, and set the scene for evolution and revolutionary movement in different classes of iranians, on the other. recognizing and studying these factors and discovering their interactional and organic relationship as well as gaining their framework, ru...

By incorporating the wave-induced Coriolis-Stokes forcing into the classical Ekman model, the wind energy input to the Ekman-Stokes layer is investigated, with an emphasis on the surface wave effects when the direction of Stokes drift deviates from that of wind stress. Theoretical analysis of the kinetic energy balance of the EkmanStokes layer shows that the total wind energy input consists of ...

A stand-alone sea ice model is tuned and validated using satellite-derived, basinwide observations of sea ice thickness, extent, and velocity from the years 1993 to 2001. This is the first time that basin-scale measurements of sea ice thickness have been used for this purpose. The model is based on the CICE sea ice model code developed at the Los Alamos National Laboratory, with some minor modi...

We present a “nudged” version of the Met Office general circulation model, the Unified Model. We constrain this global climate model using ERA-40 re-analysis data with the aim of reproducing the observed “weather” over a year from September 1999. Quantitative assessments are made of its performance, focusing on dynamical aspects of nudging and demonstrating that the “weather” is well simulated.
