one of the most important atmospheric systems in the eurasian continent during the northern hemisphere winter season is the siberian high pressure. in this study, using the ncep/ncar reanalysis data for winters of 1948-2008, trend of changes in the intensity of the high system center and its effects on some meteorological fields are investigated. the results show that the 2m height mean tempera...

basil (ocimum basilicum l.) belongs to the lamiaceae family as a medicinal plant used in traditional medicine in iran. the purpose of this test is to evaluate the effect of nano fe-chelate under salinity levels on the plant physiology and morphology characteristics. in this experiment  investigated the effect of nano fe-chelate and salinity stress on growth parameters, photosynthetic leaves rat...

purpose:     methods:     results:     conclusion:

sexual behavior in most moths is limited to a precise duration period of either the day or the night. these behaviors as well as the calling behavior are specific. information on reproductive behavior is important in the chemical ecology studies. experiments were conducted to determine the developmental biology, adult time emergence and calling behaviors of three populations of carob moth, ecto...

in this research, moisture sorptions of sayer date were determined at 20, 30, 40 and 60°c, using the standard static gravimetric method developed by the european cooperation project cost 90. several mathematical models, namely gab, bet, iglesias & chirif and halsey were employed to fit the experimental data through non-linear regression. results indicate that equilibrium moisture content increa...

1. introduction isfahan oil refinery (isfahan, iran) is responsible for the production of huge amounts of oil waste. as the released organic compounds are highly toxic, carcinogenic, and mutagenic, they can potentially contaminate the soil and groundwater resources of the adjacent area. this is particularly important in isfahan where arid/semi-arid climate has limited the access to adequate sur...

introduction atmospheric circulation patterns leads to different weather conditions and rainfall regime change is controlled by seasonal and irregular variations of atmospheric circulation pattern. variety and climate change, such as drought and flood result in changes in the spatio-temporal of precipitation, one of the important parameters conditions mentioned, heterogeneity in moisture transm...

introduction water vapor can spread in molecular, unstable and erratic phase and can also transfer by convection and advection process. this transfer happens from the earth and ocean surfaces to the atmosphere in hot air. this type of transfer is considered as the main pattern. in the studies of the atmosphere, one of the prominent factors to be considered is the complexity of water vapor and i...

in order to achieve a sustainable management and development of natural resources, a set of technical, eco-social, environmental and ecological criteria must be considered in the planning process. an appropriate model is therefore needed to address all the criteria mentioned above, in the decision making process and finally provide a reliable result. in the last few years, analytical hierarchic...

japan is a region of active plate tectonics, well known for its japanese trench a geological feature evolving as a result of north pacific (np) oceanic plate pushing and sub-ducting underneath the north american (na) plate. multiple plate tectonics have been continuously recorded in the region since 1979 by the network of gps stations called geonet. the network operating and monitoring more tha...
