according to coates’s (2004, as cited in zhang, 2010) definition of "conversational dominance" (p.111), it refers to the phenomenon of a speaker dominating others in interaction. specifically, it means how a speaker makes use of certain strategies to get the floor and maintain the floor. thus, the amount of talk is the main measurement for the dominance of the conversation. whether a speaker do...

  Studying soil phosphorus fractions is useful in understanding soil pedogenesis as well as soil fertility. In this reseach, 20 soil samples were taken from different depths of 0-30 and 30-60 cm of upper-slope, mid-slope and lower-slope positions of four toposequences in arid (Jei and Ziar in Isfahan) and semiarid (Farokhshahr and Shahrekord) regions. In each toposequence, the soil depth was re...

Abstract Background and objectives: Access to real information and data on the impact of watershed management projects and their technical and economic evaluation is possible through representative and paired catchments. Since management operations and topographic characteristics have a great impact on carbon retention in ecosystems, this study aimed to determine the amount of soil organic ca...

Extended abstract 1- Introduction Soil erosion is one of the most important problems in the arid and semi-arid areas in Iran and the knowledge about its content has an important role on the management practices of soil conservation. Topography as one of the soil-making factors affects the physical properties of the soil through the aspect and the degree of the slope. The aspect of the slope c...
