conclusions the results showed that the heat stress increased by increasing air velocity and humidity in both groups. the air velocity with high humidity can be considered as a positive factor in the occurrence of heat strain. therefore, the incidence of heat stress decreases with the increase of humidity and reduction of air velocity or with increase of air velocity and reduction of humidity i...

Functional Data Analysis (FDA) has recently made considerable progress because of easier access to the data that are essentially in the form of curves. Modeling of Iranian precipitation based on temperature and humidity with continuous the essential nature of such phenomena that are continuous functions of time has not been done properly. The corresponding data are generally collected daily or ...

Undoubtly it can be said that climate and how weather conditions effect on building shape including limited architecture elements which has been noticed at the beginning of making shelter by human beings and the principle of this need has not been changed by passing time and changing the styles and movements and definitions of art and beauty and changing needs and attitudes and expanding archit...

grooming behaviour is one of the important mechanisms of honeybee defence against parasitic mites. in addition to genetical characteristics, environmental conditions affect the behavioural traits of honeybee colonies. the main objective of this study was to examine the effect of temperature and humidity on the ability of honeybee workers to remove varroa mites from their body. one hundred worke...

Calving records from April 1996 to December 2005 comprising 31863 calving events of 1173 dairy cows in a large commercial dairy herd were used to evaluate the effects of heat stress, using temperature-humidity index (THI) on milk yield and composition and reproductive performance of Holstein dairy cows under humid climatic conditions of Rasht in Iran. THI values were grouped into six groups: 30...

pepino (solanum muricatum), a new vegetable crops, is from solanaceae family and cultivated as annual crops. in order to investigate the effects of mulch on weed dry weight in pepino and soil humidity and temperature, an experiment was conducted based on randomized completely design with three replication at the ferdowsi university of mashhad green house, during 2009. treatments included rice s...

Microbial flora of the skin of three human population groups representing different natural environments was examined quantitatively and qualitatively to determine whether environmental differences in temperature and humidity can influence the microbial flora of normal skin. Five anatomical skin sites - hands, back, axillae, groin, and feet - were sampled from 10 subjects working in a high-humi...
