Evapotranspiration is one of the most important components of the hydrology cycle for planning irrigation systems and assessing the impacts of climate change hydrology and correct determination is important for many studies such as hydrological balance of water, design of irrigation irrigation networks, simulation of crop yields, design, optimization of water resources, nonlinearity, inherent u...

magnetic resonance imaging (mri) is a notable medical imaging technique that makes of phenomenon of nuclear magnetic resonance. because of the resolution and the technology being harmless, mri has considered as the most desirable imaging technique in clinical applications. the visual quality of mri plays an important role in accuracy of medical delineations that can be seriously degraded by exi...

Background and Objectives: Cardiac diseases are a major cause of death in Iran. The number of deaths from cardiac diseases can be reduced through controlling air pollution. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between increased air pollution and mortality from respiratory and cardiac diseases in Tehran. Methods: The average daily concentrations of five pollutants, includin...

  To predict growth and yield, it is needed to study sub-models of phenology, dry matter production and partitioning, leaf area variations and soil water balance. In the present study, for predicting yield of maize under Isfahan conditions, parameters of the sub-models in the aforementioned model were estimated using data of planting dates between 1988 and 2004 in Isfahan region and data of oth...

Prediction of daily evaporation is a valuable and determinant tool in sustainable agriculture and hydrological issues, especially in the design and management of water resources systems. Therefore, in this study, the ability of artificial intelligence models of multi-layer perceptron (MLP), support vector regression (SVR), and the hybrid model of support vector regression-firefly optimization a...

Changes in the mean and the extreme values of hydroclimatic variables are two prominent features of the future climate. Therefore, simulating the climatic behavior of Shandiz catchment area, an important tourist area in the northeast of the country, will play an important role in identifying the climate condition and potential vulnerability of these areas in the coming decades of climate ch...

the main purpose of the present study was to investigate the relationship between listening proficiency and metacognitive listening strategies awareness among low, mid, and highly self-regulated students. three hundred and seventy one efl students participated in this study (all grade 3 and 4 high-school students who were studying in khansar in academic year 1391-92). to gather the data, three ...
