in recent years, several ocean tide models have been used to calculate tides using data of satellite and tide gauges data. global ocean tide models have many applications in various sciences such as geophysics, geology and geodesy and oceanography. considering­ the existence of many models, a quantitative evaluation of research, and ranking and selecting the best model of the global ocean tide ...

In the present study, a trophic structure model for some fish species of the northern Oman Sea is developed through using mass balance modeling software, Ecopath with Ecosim (EwE). In this model, we simulated 16 functional groups spread across an area of 3998.20 km2 from 2017 to 2018. Mean trophic level in the area of the present study was 3.49. Values calculated for system omnivory and connect...

The main purpose of this study is the survey of the atmospheric low pressure effects at sea level oscillations in the Qeshm Channel. For this purpose, the curves of the pressure on the Persian Gulf and Oman Sea, during the passing of the atmospheric low pressure system, are extracted across the region. During the time of occurrence of these events, sea level oscillations in the coastal areas of...

In this study, heavy metals (Hg,Cd,Pb,Cu,Zn) and metallothionein (MT) biosynthesis were measured in blood of green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas) nesting on the northern coast of the Sea of Oman. Heavy metals concentrations in the sea water, the sediments, the blood samples ranged between 0.02-8.43 μg/l, 0.06-10.32 μg/l, and 0.16-36.78μg/g (ww), respectively.The highest concentration...

Tuna purse seine fishery is a commercial and industrial fishery in the Iranian waters of Oman Sea. An observer programme was conducted to identify the by-catch composition of the tuna purse seine fishery in the Iranian waters of the Oman Sea. Investigations were carried out on board of purse seiner vessel “named Parsian Shila” between September and October 2015. The by-catch was composed of 17 ...

1. introduction seas and oceans comprise over 70 percent of the planet earth always taken into attention in the history. however, the most important official and legal actions to regularize a number of claims made by coastal countries regarding the demand of the territorial and marine control and exclusive ownership date the 20th century. the first conference on marine international law was hel...

More than 2000 measurements of atmospheric and dissolved methane (CH4) were performed in the central and northwestern Arabian Sea as part of the German JGOFS Arabian Sea Process Study during three cruises in March, May/June, and June/July 1997. Mean CH4 saturations in the surface waters of the central Arabian Sea were in the range of 103-107%. Significantly enhanced saturations were observed in...

to investigate the effects of different hormonal treatments on the oocyte maturation in wild- caught grey mullet ( mugil cephalus ), fish were subjected to 4 different hormonal treatments as follows: (a) a control group received 0.5 ml/kg b.w. physiological saline, (b) fish injected with 20 mg/kg carp pituitary extract (cpe) as a priming dose followed by 200 µg/kg sgnrha as resolving dose, (c) ...

general toxicity, antiproliferative, antibacterial and antioxidant activities of caulerpa peltata j.v.lamouroux (caulerpaceae) collected from oman sea were investigated. dried, ground alga was soxhlet-extracted with hexane, dichloromethane and methanol successively. the methanol extract was subjected to vacuum liquid chromatography (vlc) fractionation on silica gel using a step gradient of diff...

levels of the heavy metals copper (cu), zinc (zn), lead (pb), cadmium (cd), chromium (cr), nickel (ni), iron (fe) and manganese (mn) were determined by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrophotometer (model 67og) in coastal water, sediments and soft tissues of the saccostrea cucullata, from the intertidal zone at five stations in the gulf of chabahar on the iranian coasts along the oman se...
