سابقه و هدف: ورود گونه­­ های ماهی مهاجم دراکوسیستم ­های آبی، سبب بروز انواع اثرات منفی اکولوژیکی اقتصادی-اجتماعی می ­­شود. اولین گام در تجزیه تحلیل مخاطرات ناشی از گونه­ غیر­بومی، شناسایی خطر است بر این اساس ابزارهای متعددی برای ارزیابی خطرات تهاجمی غیربومی به منظور پشتیبانی تصمیم گیرندگان گونه ­­ها ایجاد شده است. هدف پژوهش قدرت تیلاپیای شکم قرمز (Coptodon zillii) حوضه آبریز تالاب شادگان (حوضه‌...

The Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1) system plays a critical endocrine role controlling nutrient metabolism in animals and it is a group of structurally-related polypeptides that regulate the growth of many types of mammalian cells. In liver, IGF-1 is dynamically regulated by lactation and energy balance. Less is known about the regulation of IGF-1 and IGF-binding protein mRNA in reproducti...

Measurement of chlorophyll-a can be considered important to investigate the primary production of an ecosystem. This study aimed to investigate chlorophyll-a concentration, primary production and the factors affecting them in Shadegan Wetland located in Khouzestan Province - Iran. Sampling for measuring (NO3, PO4, BOD5, DO, pH, EC, salinity, temperature) was performed seasonally at five samplin...

Plants are known to bioaccumulate many contaminants. Petroleum-derived compounds, such as saturated hydrocarbons and PAHs are widespread persistent environmental contaminants. Deposition of soot and precipitation of black rain have occurred in the Shadegan Wetland. In this study, PAHs in plant parts of two prominent species of halophytes, Halocnemum strobilaceum and Suaeda maritima were determi...

introduction despite the limited anthropogenic activity in arctic regions, the levels of heavy metals are of concern and the arctic is considered as an important global sink for mercury depletion. mercury is not readily available to the food web in its natural form. however, inorganic mercury are converted to organic mercury compounds by microbial processes of anaerobic organisms. mehg is more ...

evaluation of river discharges trends is very important for water resources management and design of irrigation and drainage networks. in this research, annual, seasonal and monthly trends of maroon river discharge were evaluated using the mann-kendall and sen’s slope estimator non-parametric tests and the regression analysis parametric test. for this purpose, river discharge data from five h...
