geographical bases have significant function in human settlements in terms of distribution and sustainability. thisstudy attempted to provide an insight into the role of geographical bases in rural settlement distribution in arid areas.accordingly, this study was done in the rural area of khour-biabanak, naein city in esfahan province. themethodology was that of a correlative research, to reali...

BACKGROUND The radiological quality of (226)Ra, (232)Th and (40)K in some samples of water resources collected in Anarak-Khour a desertic area, Iran has been measured by direct gamma ray spectroscopy using high purity germanium detector in this paper. RESULT The concentration ranged from ≤0.5 to 9701 mBq/L for (226)Ra; ≤0.2 to 28215 mBq/L for (232)Th and < MDA to 10332 mBq/L for (40)K. The ra...

this study was conducted to determine the radioactivity concentration in soil samples of anarak-khour district located at central iran. 48 soil samples from a depth of 10-15 cm were taken from seven different sites for monitoring. the radioactivity concentration of 238u, 232th, 137cs and 40k in soil samples was determined, using a high resolution (hpge detector, p-type) γ-spectrometry by detect...

Arranged from oldest to youngest, the main granitic rock units exposed in Khour Abalea are metagabbros, cataclastic rocks, ophiolitic melange, pegmatite and lamprophyre dykes. The presence of radioactivity associated with heavy bearing minerals construction materials—like granite—increased interest extraction process. As it turns out, rocks play an important economic part examination area’s sur...

Acartiella faoensis, previously known as Acartia (Acartiella) is a calanoid copepod which was observed during biodiversity survey, July-August of 2018, on the lower-middle stretch Hooghly River (upper reaches estuary). The species reported for first time from aforementioned locality well anywhere eastern India and perhaps entire country. Individuals belonging to both sexes have been collected s...

Abstract A new formula for determining the suspended sediment load in Khour Al-Zubair port has been proposed using dimensional analysis. Six cross-sections have identified at Basrah province, South of Iraq purpose conducting field measurements during two tidal periods (Neap and Spring). The study involved taking hydraulic fluid properties, sampling by section every 2 h to get effective paramete...

Pampus argenteus (Euphrasen, 1788) is one of the most commercially important fish in North Gulf region, Iraq particular. It's stocks were critically endangered. The study showed semi-artificial spawning. mature brooders collected from region corresponding to Khor Al-Zubair. semiartificial spawning was done by mixing sperm and ova live fish. It found that fishes afternoon suitable for This resea...

a total of 2519 blood samples were collected from five distinct populations of larestan, in fars province, in iran (lar, gerash, khour, latifi and berake) were examined for abo and rh blood groups. the gene frequencies obtained from these samples were compared with the hitherto reported corresponding data from other populations of fars province to determine the genetic structure of the larestan...
