Drying of Urmia Lake: modeling of level fluctuations
Background: Urmia Lake, the second largest hyper-saline lake of the world, has experienced lack of water and other environmental issues in recent years. Now, there is a danger of the lake drying out, which will affect the region and its inhabitants. This study aimed to present a model which can relate the water level of the lake to effective factors. Methods: Parameters that influence water le...

متن کاملModeling Lake Urmia Water-Level Changes using Local Linear Neuro-Fuzzy Method
According to the water resources and climate change and challenges of Urmia Lake basin, which is the discharge and final destination of North West Rivers, a model was presented. Due to climate change and water resources in river basin such as rainfall, climate change in basin that has direct impact on evaporation over water catchment areas and lake water, this model can be provided. In addition...
متن کاملBiodiversity of Hyphomycetes in soils of Urmia lake basin
Biodiversity of soil fungi was explored in soils of the National Park of Urmia Lake. For this purpose, 46 soil samples were collected from 5–15 cm depth and isolation was made using soil dilution plate and Warcup soil plate methods. Fungal isolates were identified based on cultural and morphological criteria. The results obtained in this study revealed that there is a rich diversity among hypho...
متن کاملFinding the Causes and Evaluating Their Impacts on Urmia Lake Crisis Using a Comprehensive Water Resources Simulation Model
Urmia Lake in northwestern Iran has been facing critical water level shrinkage in recent years with serious environmental consequences. It is expected that with the current trend, the lake will be completely dried out in a few years from now. This study attempts to assess the impacts of human activities on water level fluctuations of Urmia Lake by developing a comprehensive hydrologic simul...
