This article forms pan of an ongoing study of the coal and coalbed methane resource potential of northwestern British Columbia. Other areas under study include the Bower basin coalfield, Telkwa coalfield and Tertiary coalfields of the Bulkley Valley. Tertiary sediments survive in many major watersheds in British Columbia. The sediments are generally not well consolidated, poorly exposed and the...

Investigation and Comparison of Slenderness Coefficient Old Persian Oak Wild Pistachio Trees in Different Site Conditions the Middle Zagros

In Iran, studies of the transition from hunting and gathering to farming herding have focused on early developments in Zagros Mountains. Here, authors present new zooarchaeological data Hotu Cave, which throw light sheep/goat management domestication during Epipalaeolithic–Neolithic southern shores Caspian Sea. Gazelle dominate Epipalaeolithic levels, while are most abundant Neolithic. Large qu...

The plankton fauna of the state of Piauí, Northeastern Brazil, especially in the Parnaíba basin, is still poorly known; the results of most studies of the subject have not been published and can only be found in grey literature (unpublished scientific works), such as course completion work and consulting reports. Thus, this paper presents data from samples taken recently from different water bo...

DNA barcoding has been suggested as a universal tool for molecular species identification; however, it cannot be applied in cases when morphologically similar species share their DNA barcodes due to the common ancestry or mitochondrial introgression. Here we analyze the karyotype of Polyommatus (Agrodiaetus) morgani (Le Cerf, 1909) from the region of its type locality in the southern Zagros Mou...

Evaluation of Soil Moisture Changes Using the Balance Model in Zagros Oak Drying Forests (Case study: Melah Siah Forest - Ilam)

we usewe use ml shear wave velocity to derive a high resolution 2d ml shear wave velocity map for the iranian plateau. the ml amplitudes and arrival times are routinely measured for the calculation of local magnitude. ml shear wave velocity is very sensitive to the lateral change of crustal thickness and switches between the velocity of lg and sn waves. an lg wave will die out as soon as encoun...
