determining landslide size could be a difficult and expensive task. in this research, size parameters of 142 landslides recognized in tajan river basin, northern iran, have been assessed. the dataset was prepared through the extensive field surveys and using the satellite imagery available via google earth. dependence between landslides area (a-m2), volume (v-m3), and depth (d-m) was appointed ...

background : the aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of water ozonation on disinfection by-product formation. methods : experiments were carried out on samples taken from tajan river, mazandaran province, iran. samples of the pre-filtered raw water and from the 3.5-l water tank reservoir (wt) were analyzed for uv-254 absorbance, dissolved organic carbon (doc), hs and non-hs, chlor...

impacts of effluent from fish farming activities on fluvial ecosystems lead to deterioration of water quality and changes in the macroinvertebrates assemblage. in this study, the influence of fish farm effluents on water quality and macroinvertebrates communities of tajan river was investigated to evaluate the suitability of macroinvertebrates based on biological metrics and indices. benthic ma...

Therefore, this study attempts to evaluate improvement of water productivity Northern Iran on basis Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats (SWOT) analysis. This qualitativ...

In the present study, changes in benthic communities due to seasonal changes in the water of the southern Caspian Basin were investigated. Sampling was conducted monthly, from March 2006 to March 2007, at six selected stations in Tajan River mouth located on south eastern Caspian Sea. Also secondary benthic production consumable for fish and other biota inhabiting the mouth and adjacent areas w...

This study was carried out to evaluate the genetic effect of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) conferring drought tolerance in wheat. A population of 120 F(2) individuals from the cross between the drought-tolerant S-78-11 and drought-sensitive Tajan cultivars were analyzed for their segregation under drought stress conditions. The relative water content under drought stress conditions exhibi...
