The surface area of Venus ( 460 10 km) is 90% of that of the Earth. Using Magellan radar image and altimetry data, supplemented by Venera-15/16 radar images, we compiled a global geologic map of Venus at a scale of 1:10 M. We outline the history of geological mapping of the Earth and planets to illustrate the importance of utilizing the dual stratigraphic classification approach to geological m...

For the microbiostratigraphical studies, a stratigraphical section (named Dareh-Goshayesh) has been selected in southeast of Maragheh, Northwestern Iran. The thickness of successions in the selected stratigraphic section is measured about 223.6 m. The mentioned studied stratigraphic section is composed of two clastic and carbonate units. This succession unconformably overlies the Lar Formation ...

For the lithostratigraphy and microbiostratigraphical studies, a stratigraphical section (named Dareh-Goshayesh) has selected and is located in southeast of Maragheh city, south of eastern Azerbaijan province in the northwest of Iran. The thickness of successions in the selected stratigraphic section is measured about 223.6 m. The mentioned studied stratigraphic section is composed of two clast...

aim : the aim of the present study was to determine the species and genotypes of cryptosporidium spp. among children with diarrhea by pcr- rflp using the trap-c2 gene. background : cryptosporidium is a globally distributed protozoan parasite and one of the most common causes of infection and diarrhea in humans. patients and methods : four hundred and sixty nine stool samples were collected from...

b a ckground: bait-trapping appears to be a generally useful method of studying fly populations. the aim of this study was to construct a new adult flytrap by some modifications in former versions and to evaluate its applicability in a subtropical zone in southern iran. m e t hods: the traps were constructed with modification by adding some equipment to a polyethylene container (18×20× 33 cm) w...

S U M M A R Y Estimating orientations of seismic structures (reflections) and stratigraphic features (channels) is important for seismic interpretation, subsurface interpolation and geophysical inversion. Structure tensors, constructed as smoothed outer products of amplitude gradients, are commonly used to estimate seismic reflection normals, which uniquely define the reflection orientations. H...

in order to determine reaction of sandflies to the light trap, they were collected from the foci of visceral leishmaniasis in meshkjn shahr and germj during 1994. we used three c.d.c. light trap for collection of sandflies. totally, two hundred and sixty three sand - flies were captured from meshkin - shahr focus, belonging to the species of phiebotomus kandejajcj (69.58%), ph.ba/canicus(815%) ...

One of the most important issues in water supply for agriculture or drinking is sediment control.Sedimentation in water conveyance channels reduces transmission efficiency. this study evaluated theefficiency of settling basin of Kamandan intake that is located in the village of Aligoodarz in Lorestanprovince. At first sample from water and sediment in inlet and outlet of settling basin in diffe...

Introduction: Other than the few Martian meteorites that have been found on Earth and the data being collected by the Mars Exploration Rovers, all data from Mars is remotely sensed which lends it to be developed and analyzed within a Geographic Information System (GIS) platform. This study is being accomplished by bringing together multiple datasets from the Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC), Mars Orbi...
