Eutrophication and trophic status using different indices: A study in the Iranian coastal waters of the Caspian Sea

The aim of this study was to assess the eutrophication and trophic status of the Caspian Sea based on different indices and also compare its status with the reference threshold values in the Iranian coastal waters of Caspian Sea (hereafter ICWCS). The water samples (three replicates) were collected along four transects (off the coast from Anzali, Tonekabon, Nowshahr and Amirabad) between spring...

Eutrophication and trophic status using different indices: A study in the Iranian coastal waters of the Caspian Sea

The aim of this study is to assess the eutrophication and trophic status based on different indices and also reference threshold values in the Iranian coastal waters of the southern Caspian Sea (ICWSCS). The water samples (three replicates) were collected along four transects (off the coast from Anzali, Tonekabon, Nowshahr and Amirabad) between spring 2013 and winter 2014. The results show mark...

Evaluation and classification of trophic status in coastal waters of Homozgan province using trophic index Scale (Trixcs) and unscale (Untrixcs)

One of the most important issues in environmental management of coastal waters is the evaluation of Eutrophication. In this study, the trophic status of coastal waters of Hormozgan province was evaluated using Scale (TRIXCS) and Unscale (UNTRIXCS) trophic indices in 2012. The results showed that TRIXCS values were in the range of 3.6 to 5.9 (in the area 1 Mezo-Eutroph, areas 2 and 3 Mezotroph, ...

A review on the taxonomic status and biological characteristics of the genus Carassius (Teleostei: Cyprinidae) in Iranian inland waters

The genus Carassius is a genus of the family Cyprinidae, that its species are important part of the ornamental fish industry in Iran. Due to the recent changes in the taxonomic status of the genus Carassius, it is necessary to review the taxonomic statues of its recorded populations in Iran. Therefore, the present study was conducted to provide an overview of the taxonomic status of the genus C...
