We studied the modern pollen rain in two different landscapes from Hyrcanian lowland forests up to slopes of Alborz Mountains Gilan province for first time. Pollen traps were installed one year and moss samples collected along altitudinal transects 100 1800 m 2300 elevations. The results counting environmental DNA barcoding (metabarcoding) compared 32 locations. In total, 81 vascular plant spec...

one of the most appropriate approaches for flood forecasting is using peak discharge data of hydrometric stations in each region. however, lack of such stations or short duration of data in most parts of the country, make it necessary to use some alternative methods in order to estimate the flood discharge properly. one of these approaches is regional flood analysis method that in a region usin...

Alborz Mountains is a region of active deformation within Arabia-Eurasia collision zone. The study fault system in western Alborz comprises abundant evidence of active faulting accompanied by occurrence of historical earthquakes. Active tectonics of Manjil-Rudbar fault zone whose movement caused destructive 1990 Manjil-Rudbar earthquake was concentrated in this article through geomorphic and st...

This research addresses the design and development of an incremental software architecture recovery and evaluation environment using data mining techniques. The environment is interactive and provides: pattern-based architectural recovery using a query language and approximate graph pattern matching; optimization clustering; partitioning; and view-based architectural design evaluation. These te...

Introduction The Islamic Republic of Iran (Figure 1) has an area of 1,648,000 km 2 and a population of 65 million people (1995 estimate). The country has arid and semiarid climates and the occurrence of rainfall is unreliable, with a coefficient of variation as high as 70%. The average annual precipitation over the country is around 250 mm. Two mountain ridges, the Alborz and Zagros (Figure 1),...
