Distribution of seaweeds in Mangrove forests

Many of the mangrove forests are characterized by macroalgae growing epiphytically on pneumatophores, prop roots, stems and other hard substrates. Mangrove macroalgae have an important role as primary producers in the estuarine ecosystem. In the present study, four different mangrove habitats were selected to identify the macroalgae inhabiting the roots of a mangrove species Avicennia marina in...

Light-intensity distribution in eccentric photorefraction crescents.

We try to improve the accuracy of eccentric photorefraction by taking more information into account than just the size and tilt of the crescent. Based on Gaussian optics and the assumption of an isotropic scattering retina, a theoretical analysis of the light-intensity distribution in the pupils of astigmatic eyes is presented. The method is applied to different photorefractor setups (point lig...

Mapping Dieback Intensity Distribution in Zagros Oak Forests Using Geo-statistics and Artificial Neural Network

The first and most important issue in forest drought management is knowledge of the location and severity of forest decline. In this regard, we used geostatistics and artificial neural network methods to map the dieback intensity of oak forests in the  Ilam province, Iran. We used a systematic random sampling with a 250 × 200 m grid to establish 100 plots, each covering 1200 m2. The percentage ...

gradual erasure of subjectivity: a study of samuel beckett’s trilogy in the light of postmodernism

ساموئل بکت بیشتر از هر نویسنده دیگری در نیم? دوم قرن بیستم با گفتارش زمان? ما را به آستان? از هم پاشیدگی کشانده است، آستانه ای که در آن مدرنیته با سرانجام گریزان اما غیرقابل اجتناب خود مواجه می شود. در این تحقیق روی مفهوم فردیت و محو آن در دوران پسامدرن تاکید شده و در طی آن سعی شده است که فردیت مدرن و پسامدرن در رمان های سه گانه بکت بررسی گردد. تحقیق حاضر یک بررسی کتابخانه ای و کیفی بر روی سه ر...
