The interaction between sea and atmosphere has profound effects on the regions climate. Meanwhile, the sea surface temperature is considered as one of the most effective components of water bodies, and the controller of many atmospheric behaviors. Because of the importance of sea surface temperatures effects on atmospheric elements and also given the role of global warming on land and sea surfa...

the caspian sea region, because of the proximity of two permanent powers - russia and iran- and the emergence of newly independent republics, is one of the most dynamic places in the world. in addition, the continuity of interests of other global actors, including the united states and europe, with the coastal countries has added to the complexity and dynamics. in this regard, the region energy...

Caspian Sea is the largest land locked water body in the world and has been characterized by significant relative sea-level changes since the Pliocene. The sea-level oscillations have strongly impacted the coastal areas depending on geomorphological setting. This study aims to investigate the impacts of sea level oscillations on low-lying coasts of the southeastern flank of the Caspian Sea...

The Ponto-Caspian amphipod Obesogammarus obesus (Sars, 1894) was first recorded in the Rhine River near Koblenz, Germany in October 2004. Additional records of small numbers of O. obesus from the same location in 2005 and 2006 indicate that this alien species may have become established in the central section of the Rhine River. Ship transport via the Main-Danube Canal, connecting the Danube ba...

Modern satellite gravity missions and ground gravimetry provide operational data models that can be used in various studies geology, tectonics, climatology, etc. In the present study, sedimentary basins southern part of East European Platform adjoining areas including Caucasus are studied by employing approach based on decompensative anomalies. The new model sediments, implying their thickness ...

â â â  many of environmental conditions are explainable, either directly or indirectly with regard to topographical changes in pressure levels of high atmosphere. thus, studying this subject is great importance. in this article, after determining the threshold of flood in catchment, altitudinal data of 500 hp level for 44 storms generating floods during (1370_1384) were processed using the fact...

Common carp (Cyprinus carpio) represents one of the most economically important fish species in the Caspian Sea. In this study, growth and mortality parameters among population of common carp was investigated. Sampling was carried out weekly, using beach seine in the south of the Caspian Sea from October 2006 to September 2007. As a contribution to elaborating management programs for common car...

although the persian sturgeon, acipenser persicus , is a commercially valuable sturgeon species of the caspian sea, but there are only few reports about its parasite fauna in the southern part of the caspian sea. in this study, a total of 209 individuals of persian sturgeon were collected from two regions in the southwestern of caspian sea (guilan province, iran) from march 2009 to may 2011. af...
