haraz-ghareh su is one of the seven sub-basins of the caspian basin, located on the southern shores of the caspian sea, and as such, is in danger of water crisis due to absence of proper systematic policy and strategy. in this study, the pressure factors on the haraz-ghareh su water resources were identified using dpsir model. then, the pressure parameters on the freshwater resources in the cas...

rangeland ecosystem contains various patches with different functions. structural and functional characteristics of rangeland patches are changed by management practices and can be used to interpret management effects. the structural and functional characteristics of fertilized patches in two rangeland ecosystems of ghareh ghir and maraveh tapeh were measured and analyzed in this study. a group...

Background & Aims of the Study: Groundwater resources are a crucial component of the ecosystem. Management and cleanup of contamination from groundwater resources requires a long term strategy and a huge amount of investments. Artificial neural networks (ANN) and Geographic Information System (GIS) can be useful in determining management strategies. To protect these valuable resourc...

Alfalfa is an autotetraploid, allogamous and heterozygous forage legume, whose varieties are synthetic populations. Due to the complex nature of the species, information about genetic diversity of germplasm used in any alfalfa breeding program is most beneficial. The genetic diversity of five alfalfa varieties, involved in progeny tests at Institute of Field and Vegetable Crops, was characteriz...
