Precipitation is a key variable in the hydrological cycle and essential input data rainfall-runoff modeling. Rain gauge are considered as one of best sources precipitation but before further use, must be spatially interpolated. The process interpolation particularly challenging over mountainous areas due to complex orography usually sparse network rain gauges. This paper investigates two determ...

Abstract. A previous study by the authors illustrated distribution of naturally occurring radionuclides, i.e., potassium (K40), thorium (Th232), and uranium (U238), in sediment Berg River estuary. The also described Delta Underwater Gamma detection System (DUGS) its usage to measure concentrations these natural radionuclides. It proposed a novel radiometric mapping technique with QGIS and, more...

An adaptive decision based inverse distance weighted interpolation (DBIDWI) algorithm for the elimination of highdensity salt and pepper noise in images is proposed. The pixel is initially checked for salt and pepper noise. If classified as noisy pixel, replace it with an inverse distance weighted interpolation value. This interpolation estimates the values of corrupted pixels using the distanc...

drought monitoring is a fundamental component of drought risk management. it is normally performed usingvarious 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 interpolationof spatially referenced data and the prediction of values fo...

Introduction: Due to water scarcity and increased water consumption during the past years, the importance of water in terms of transmission of diseases, as well as Iran's climate, groundwater aquifers are known as the most important resources of drinking water supply. Using the Water Quality Index (WQI) is considered as strong managerial tool for decision making in water resource management. Th...

Background and Aim: High concentrations of particulate matter-25 (PM2.5) have been the cause of the unhealthiest days in Tehran, Iran in recent years. This study was conducted with the aim of the spatio-temporal analysis of traffic volume and its relationship with PM2.5 pollutant concentrations in Tehran metropolis, Tehran during 2015-2018, using the Geographic Information System (GIS). Materi...
