seasonal variations of the seawater properties (e.g. temperature, salinity, density and chlorophyll-a) in western part of the southern coastal waters of the caspian sea near the iranian coast were studied. a portable ctd probe was applied for profiling from sea surface to bottom at 23 stations. maximum depth of the profiling stations was more than 470 m in the study area. vertical structure of ...

lichens are composite organisms formed by a fungus and a green alga and / or a blue-green bacterium. they are recognized as being very sensitive to atmospheric pollution and respond to factors that influence human and environmental healths. since 1860, lichen has been identified as a biological indicator to detect air pollution in great britain and europe. lichens have the high sensitivityto ni...

Effect of gibberellic acid on marigold (Calendula Officinalis L.) was evaluated in a pot culture experiment. A factorial experiment based on completely randomized design including 12 treatments and four replications was carried out. Main factor was foliar application stages (first, second and third) and sub factor included different concentrations of GA3 (0, 50, 150 and 250 mg L...

coastal lagoons are complex ecosystems exhibiting a high degree of non-linearity in the distribution and exchange of nutrients dissolved in the water column due to their spatio-temporal characteristics. this factor has a direct influence on the concentrations of chlorophyll-a, an indicator of the primary productivity in the water bodies as lakes and lagoons. moreover the seasonal variability in...

the effect of four citrus rootstocks {sour orange (citrus aurantium), bakraeii (c. reticulata × c. limetta, mexican lime (c. aurantifolia) and volkamerlemon (c. volkameriana)} were evaluated on sweet lime leaf chlorophyll content and mineral concentrations (n, p, k, ca, na, mg, fe, zn, mn, cl, cu, and b) in a completely randomized design of four replications. budded sweet lime on the above root...

afforestation of contaminated areas is considered as a possible strategy for reduction of contaminations. in the present study, the effects of lead (pb) and cadmium (cd) were investigated on chlorophyll fluorescence parameters (fv/fm, fo, and fm), photosynthetic pigments (chlorophyll a, b, and total chlorophyll), and proline in one-year-old seedlings of celtis caucasica and robinia pseudoacacia...
