in this paper by using mm5 modeling system, the effects of the alborz mountain range on the development of synoptic weather systems on the leeward side of the mountains have been studied. the primary aim was to see if the cyclones are produced and intensified (cyclogenesis), however the cyclogenesis was found not to be marked and hence the focus of the study was on the effects of the mountain o...

In the present data article, fluoride concentration levels of drinking water (with spring or groundwater sources) in 10 villages of Asara area located in Alborz province were determined by the standard SPADNS method using a spectrophotometer (DR/2000 Spectrophotometer, USA). Daily fluoride intakes were also calculated based on daily drinking water consumption. The fluoride content were compared...

the distribution of gazella bennetti in iran is reviewed. the species is commonly said to be confined to the southeastern part of the country, but is actually widespread over suitable areas, east of the zagros range and south of the alborz. in the north and west of this range, there is a hitherto undescribed subspecies, which is named and diagnosed for the first time in this paper; its similari...

This paper introduces a study of morphotectonic structure in the Central Alborz Basin, Mazandaran province of Iran (about 1200 square kilometer), using Russian KFA-1000 satellite photography and sequential air photographs. The KFA-1000 metric camera has better ground resolution than SPOT and LANDSAT for the whole of the study area. Results are provided from one pair of 30×30 cm. photos, which p...

A sequence of Permian rocks crops out in Northwest of Khur in Central Alborz, North of Iran. This sequence consists of the Dorud (Asselian-Sakmarian), Ruteh (Artinskian-Murgabian) and Nesen (Early Djulfian) formations.
