Contributions to 2012 summertime aerosols in the Euro-Mediterranean region

مطالعۀ فلوریستیکی مراتع درمنۀ کوهی در استان اصفهان، ایران

To investigate the Artemisia vegetation in Isfahan Province, two rangelands of Khorous Galu in the southwest and Ashan in the west of Isfahan were selected. These rangelands are mountainous with semiarid climate. In Khorous galu, 68 species belonging to 50 genera and 24 families were identified. Life forms included hemicryptophytes (39%), therophytes (27.5%), chamaephytes (19%), geophytes (13%)...

Regional Trade Integration and Spatial Effects in the Euro Mediterranean Zone

The Mediterranean summertime ozone maximum: global emission sensitivities and radiative impacts

The Mediterranean troposphere exhibits a marked and localised summertime ozone maximum, which has the potential to strongly impact regional air quality and radiative forcing. The Mediterranean region can be perturbed by long-range pollution import from Northern Europe, North America and Asia, in addition to local emissions, which may all contribute to regional ozone enhancements. We exploit ozo...

Predictors of Healthcare Expenditure: Aging, Disability or Development?

Objective: Studies show that almost every country across the world will experience a remarkable increase in their healthcare costs and ageing population by 2030. Also, people with disabilities are more likely to impose considerable healthcare costs on families and governments than their counterparts. On the other hand, socioeconomic status of countries can be an important factor to predict heal...
