the effect of drought indices on hydrostatic variations and qualitative parameters of the zahedan plain's aquifer was investigated. for this purpose, 12-year statistics from observational and piezometry wells in the plain, the drought index of percentage normal )pn), standardized precipitation index )spi(, and 30-year precipitation statistics of zahedan station were used. results revealed ...

Six meteorological drought indices including percent of normal (PN), standardized precipitation index (SPI), China-Z index (CZI), modified CZI (MCZI), Z-Score (Z), the aridity index of E. de Martonne (I) are compared and evaluated for assessing spatio-temporal dynamics of droughts in six climatic regions in Iran. Results indicated that by consideration of the advantages and disadvantages of the...

drought is a major problematic phenomenon mostly for semi-arid areas of iran. during drought periods, reduction in vegetation levels causes such problems as soil erosion, surface runoff, flood risk, etc. therefore, the assessment of drought effects on plant covers is the most important issue. this research was conducted in 2015 using the extracted vegetation indices from moderate resolution ima...

BACKGROUND Surgeries are inevitable for treating primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) and risk factors of surgical failure play a key role in surgical decision making. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of delay of surgery and preoperative speed of progression (SP) on the surgical outcomes in these patients. METHODS Medical records of 83 eyes of 51 PCG patients with trabeculo...

Drought is one of the most natural hazards that may harm human life and property under different weather environmental conditions. This study used remote sensing data to monitor agricultural meteorological drought in Babel Governorate. maps were drawn using Landsat 8 images based on Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) for 2015, 2018, 2021. The was assessed a standardized precipitation...

[1] Many current metrics of drought are derived solely from analyses of climate variables such as precipitation and temperature. Drought is clearly a consequence of climate anomalies, as well as of human water use practices, but many impacts to society are more directly related to hydrologic conditions resulting from these two factors. Modern hydrology models can provide a valuable counterpart ...

OBJECTIVE To compare the Body mass index, airway Obstruction, Dyspnea, and E xercise capacity (BODE) index scores and its individual components between COPD patients with and without severe physical inactivity, as well as to correlate the number of steps/day with scores of physical activity questionnaires, age, and the BODE index (including its components). METHODS We included 30 patients, wh...

Drought is a climatic event that threatens the environment and human life with an ambiguity of location time. Recently, droughts can be analyzed for different periods help mathematical methods developing technology. This study aims to perform drought analysis in 126 designated points Turkey. The data includes monthly total precipitation values between March 2000 February 2021, obtained from PER...
