according to variety of accessible hydrological models, evaluateing the efficiency of models for different management objectives are essential. therefore, models with simple structure and using minimal input that can provide an acceptable result can serve as an effective tool to watershed managers. hence, the objective of this research is to evaluate the relative performances of the lumped conc...

Background: The incidence of oral cancers is different worldwide. Objective: To evaluate the rate of oral cancers in Khouzestan Province. Patients and Methods: The data were collected from the pathologic reports of pathology laboratories all around the province, during the time period of 1992-2002. Results: Among the total received specimens, 305 cases of oral cancers were detected. One hundred...

in this study, application ofweap model (soil moisture method) have been investigated for simulating hydrological behavior in ahar-chai basin. according to the development of pressurized irrigation systems in this basin, since 2005, two models were carried out for two periods, pre-pressurized period (1998-2006) and pressurized period (2006-2013). irrigation method in first model was surface irr...

Celebrating the new year with fireworks is traditional in Italy. A national surveillance system maintained by police indicated that on New Year's Eve 1992, more than 1100 fireworks-related injuries and four deaths occurred in Italy (Ministry of the Interior, unpublished data, 1993). In many areas of the country, the use of fireworks begins several weeks before the new year and continues through...

Abstract. This study proposes an approach to estimate the ocean sea surface height signature of coherent internal tides from a 25-year along-track altimetry record, with single inversion over time, resolving both tide contributions and mesoscale eddy variability. The is performed on reduced-order basis topography practically achieved conjugate gradient. particularity this mitigate potential ali...
