Chlamydia is an obligate intercellular and Gram negative coccobacilli and one of the most important factors of abortion in ruminants especially in ewes. Purpose of this investigation Phylogenetic Analysis of Chlamydia abortus Isolated from fetus Aborted ewes of Alborz Province. In this study, of 100 aborted fetuses abomasum of 32 sheeps flocks were Alborz Province, DNA was then extracted IGS-Sr...

Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) capability to detect slow deformation over terrain areas is limited by temporal decorrelation, geometric decorrelation and atmospheric artefacts. Multitemporal InSAR methods such as Persistent Scatterer (PS-InSAR) and Small Baseline Subset (SBAS) have been developed to deal with various aspects of decorrelation and atmospheric problems affecting ...

Article history: Received June 26, 2012 Received in Revised form August, 12, 2012 Accepted 15 September 2012 Available online September 17 2012 One of the primary concerns with data envelopment analysis arises when the number of inputs and outputs increases. In such a case, required computations will become time consuming and there is a concern on developing some hybrid methods to increase the ...

In northern parts of Iran such as the Alborz Mountain belt, frequent landslides occur due to a combination of climate and geologic conditions with high tectonic activities. This results in millions of dollars of financial damages annually excluding casualties and unrecoverable resources. This paper evaluates the landslide susceptible areas in Central Alborz using the probabilistic frequency rat...

BACKGROUND Unlike developed countries, data from the developing world regarding motor developmental disorders is scarce. OBJECTIVES In the present study, we used the Infant Neurological International Battery (Infanib) test to determine the prevalence of motor impairment in 4-18 month-old infants in Alborz province, Iran, in 2010. PATIENTS AND METHODS This study was a descriptive-analytic st...

In this paper, the peak ground acceleration (PGA) over the bedrock is calculated by a probabilistic and deterministic seismic hazard assessment. An active fault map of the region is prepared. For this purpose, all active faults in a radius of 100 km from Amol city center are recognized and their seismic and rapture parameters are determined. Afterwards, for seismic hazard analysis, the seismic ...

Investigation of mineralization and fluid inclusions the Lapeh-Zanak copper deposit, Central Alborz zone, Iran

This paper expands the previous efforts by other researchers to present a quantitative and deterministic approach for terrain analysis. This study evaluates both spatial and temporal factors contributing landslides utilizing Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) point clouds in conjunction with the frequency ratio model (PFR) than has previously been used in the Alborz Mountains. The study area i...
