abstract: one of the most important and complicated social transitions has been growth of worldwide urbanization. the rapid growth of urbanization and cities has had different consequences which is associated with much urban vulnerability. physical, installation, environmental, economical and social inequalities have been the results of such urban growth. this paper aims to study and identify t...

increasing growth of population leads to increase in human activities such as agriculture and industry, which these activities increasing and irregular usage of fertilizers, pesticides and insecticides result in soil and groundwater pollution. meanwhile, vulnerability assessment can play important role in the management of polluting activities. in this research a new method has been proposed fo...

sizing of paperboard has a distinctive position in packaging grade paperboard material. optimization of sizing by alum-rosin at neutral ph in 4 layered paperboard (330 g/m2) wereevaluated in this study to find the optimum ratio of alum- rosin loading in the process. fixed amount of 1% cationic dispersed rosin together with alum as a fixing agent at 5 different levels of 1, 1.5, 2, 3, and 4% (ba...

splash erosion recognized as first stage of erosion process that results of bombing soil surface with rain drop. falling rain drops to soil surface resulted moving soil particles and destructing soil structure. at this research effects of various pam rate (0, 2, 4 and 6 kg.ha) on splash erosion on three soil textuere clay, silty clay and sandy clay loam was tested. simulations were done with ra...

in this research, nanoporous silica (sba-15) was physically functionalized using2-(2-nitrobenzylideneamino) guanidine compound. this functionalized sba-15 was utilized as a new sorbentfor separation and preconcentration of some lanthanide ions. inductively coupled plasma optical emissionspectrometry (icp-oes) was used as a detection technique. the preconcentration factor of the method is 100and...

the aim followed in this study was to compare the performance of multiple regression vs neural network models to predict the activity of antioxidant enzymes super oxide dismutase (sod), cat alase (cat), ascorbate pero xidase (apx) and peroxidase (pox) in the shoots of wheat (triticum aestivum), alvand cultivar in a soil polluted with cadmium. the treatments consisted of four levels of cadmium (...

soil compaction is one of the most prevailed limitations for crop growth. the use of organic matters as fertilizer on agricultural soils can reduce the effects of soil compaction and provide the nutrients for the plants. so, a factorial experiment was carried out in a randomized complete blocks design with three replications. the first factor was the source and amount of organic fertilizer (far...

drought as a climatic phenomenon affected many different environmental issues and generally is associated with the decreasing in average precipitation. evaluation and monitoring of the drought is a fundamental step in proper programming of water resources management. regarding the recent conditions water scarcity in the urmia lake basin, assessment of the drought index in this region is inevita...
