background: provision of safe drinking water is one of the basic needs of every society and it will only be possible through preventive and comprehensive management of drinking water security programs such as haccp. hazard analysis critical control point (haccp) is an internationally accepted process control system which includes recognition and determination of risk factor properties of proces...

drought monitoring is a fundamental component of drought risk management. it is normally performed using various drought indices that are effectively continuous functions of rainfall and other hydrometeorological variables. in many instances, drought indices are used for monitoring purposes. geostatistical methods allow the interpolation of spatially referenced data and the prediction of values...

landscape characteristics and land use patterns of watershed demonstrate extension, distribution, density and abundance of human interference. these factors can affect water quality of adjacent aquatic systems within a watershed. land use changes have caused various environmental problems for zayandehroud river,turned it as a sink of pollutant. therefore this is investigated that how would land...

The location of a well related to surface drainage ways is important in determining the potential for groundwater contamination from surface water flow. Locating a well in a safe place needs careful consideration and planning.To determine the effects of well depth on water quality, the wells up to 4 m. depth and 100 m. far from river were selected in Isfahan. Geologically, the earth in this zon...

in this investigation, the mercury content of different samples of persian gulf shrimp and fish, caspian sea fish and the samples of fish from bandar pahlavi lagoon, zarjoub river near rasht, zayandehroud river near esfahan, and karadj river near tehran were measured by flameless atomic absorption, cold vapor-technique, using standard addition method. the main purpose of this study was to inves...
