The aim of this study was the spatial and temporal monitoring soil erosion patterns in Iran. G2 model used, as an appropriate tool to provide required month-time step country-wide loss maps statistical outputs. input parameters were derived with field surveys remote sensing imagery (MODIS, SRTM, SPOT, Sentinel-2 scenes). An innovation for consideration snow cover effect on rainfall erosivity. I...

Recent analyses of ancient Mesopotamian mitochondrial genomes have suggested a genetic link between the Indian subcontinent and Mesopotamian civilization. There is no consensus on the origin of the ancient Mesopotamians. They may be descendants of migrants, who founded regional Mesopotamian groups like that of Terqa or they may be merchants who were involved in trans Mesopotamia trade. To ident...

Deserts can be considered as one of the main sources dust emissions they are highly vulnerable to wind erosion, i.e. The lack vegetative cover, well low soil wetness, contribute release particles by erosion. present study examines seasonal variation in sand and storms (SDSs) originating from war-impacted semi-arid bare lands affected chemical warfare located southwest Iran for period 2007–2018....

Energy generated by the force of water in hydropower can provide a more sustainable, non-polluting alternative to fossil fuels, along with other renewable sources of energy, such as wind, solar and tidal power, bio energy and geothermal energy. Small scale hydroelectricity in Iran is well suited for “off-grid” rural electricity applications, while other renewable energy sources, such as wind, s...
