summarythe explanation of the elastic, or velocity structure of the earth has long been a goal of the world’s seismologists. for the first few decades of seismological research, the investigation on velocity structure was restricted to the determination of one-dimensional models of the solid earth and of various regions within it. seismologists are currently obtaining three dimensional velocity...

this study was conducted to determine regression equations for the prediction metabolizable energy value corrected for zero nitrogen retention (amen) in 12 wheat cultivars (mahdavi, chamran, sabalan, sepahan, sivand, alamoot, sholeh, neishaboor, pishtaz, bahar, shiraz and shahpasand) cultured in alborz province of iran. chromic oxide marker bioassay was used to determine wheat cultivars nitroge...

In this paper, a new power, heating and hydrogen cogeneration cycle from Sabalan geothermal two wells is proposed and analyzed. In the proposed system, a new double flash cycle and organic Rankine cycle are used for power production. A proton exchange membrane (PEM) is also used for hydrogen production and the domestic water heater is used for heating. The impacts of some design parameters, suc...

Growing concerns for food security and alleviation of hunger necessitate knowledge-based crop management technologies sustainable production. In this study 13 winter bread wheat genotypes (old, relatively old, modern, breeding lines) were evaluated under three different tillage systems, i.e., conventional (CT; full with residue removed), reduced (RT; chisel retained) no-tillage (NT; retained on...

the current study aims to ordinate ecological groups in the wetlands of northern and eastern slopes of the sabalan mountain and investigate their relationship with environmental variables. the location of wetlands was found using field surveys and satellite images. in total, 32 wetland sites were identified for the sampling purpose. 320 sample plots (relevé) were selected using the systematic-r...
