The gastropod fauna of Bushehr Province intertidal zone at the Persian Gulf were identified following an investigation starting spring 2009 until winter 2011. Bushehr coastline is a 673.62 km stretch along the northern and northeastern coast of the Persian Gulf. Sampling took place from Deylam at Bushehr-Khuzestan borderlines, extending southeastward through Genaveh, Bushehr, Bolkheyr, Kab...

A long BeppoSAX observation of the Galactic Center region shows that the spectrum of the diffuse X–ray emission from the SgrA Complex can be described with the sum of two thermal plasma models with temperatures of ∼0.6 keV and ∼89 keV. The spatial distribution of the diffuse emission is energy dependent. While the hard X–ray emission has a nearly symmetric distribution elongated along the Galac...

Introduction: The 52±6 ka old Lonar crater, India [1, 2], is the only known terrestrial impact crater in basaltic target-rocks (Deccan Traps, ~65 Ma). The impactor asteroid of this ~1.8 km diameter crater was perhaps a chondrite [3] that hit the pre-impact surface from east at an angle of 30-45 o with horizon [4]. Presently, we report the possible distribution of impact-induced stress around Lo...

Using the multi-temperature observations from SDO/AIA on 30th December 2019, we provide a signature of prominence driven forced magnetic reconnection in corona and associated plasma dynamics during 09:20 UT to 10:38 UT. A hot segment erupts with speed 21 km/s destabilises entire system. Thereafter, it rose upward north 09:28 09:48 24 km/s. The eruptive stretches overlying field lines 27-28 , wh...

tehran, iran’s capital with a population of more than 10 million is located in the southern foothills of the alborz collision zone. the alborz mountain belt of northern iran results from the collision of a piece of the gondwana with eurasia in the late triassic (sengor et al., 1988). the alborz active mountain range which consists of several sedimentary and volcanic layers, with east-west trend...

BACKGROUND This paper presents results of baseline data on the determinants of contraceptive use in 7 districts in northern Ghana where there is an ongoing integrated primary health care systems strengthening projectknown as the Ghana Essential Health Intervention Project (GEHIP). METHODS We used a household survey data conducted within 66 randomly sampled census enumeration areas in seven ru...

iron mineralization of kalate shahin is located 107 km on the ghoochan-neyshaboor road (in khorasan razavi province). subvolcanic intrusive bodies of quartz monzonite to monzonite porphyry intruded the cretacous limestone. sedimentary units of the area in decreasing age include cretaceous limestone and eocene and paleocene-quaternary microconglomerate to sandstone. mineralization in the region ...
