The Persian oak, Quercus brantii, trees in the Zagros region of Western Iran have been in decline since 2000. The decline is assumed to be highly connected with changes in meteorological parameters. Our objectives were to quantify the long-term trends in meteorological parameters and reference evapotranspiration (ET0) in the Zagros region and estimate ecohydrological parameters highly affected ...

downbursts are small-scale, short-lived and energetic events in the atmosphere. they usually occur from the beginning of spring to summer when the weather is more humid and the convective weather conditions are suitable. because of the small-scale property of the downburst, it has sometimes been observed only in a meteorological station and other stations have not observed considerable changes....

in this investigation, using mann – kendall graphical-statistical test, which is one of the proposed methods of world meteorological organization (wmo) for time series analysis, the change trend of long – term mean of annual minimum and maximum temperatures in iran will be studied. to evaluate this trend and access a suitable pattern in this situation, average of annual minimum and maximum ...

simultaneous heat and water model (shaw) is based on the assimilation rate of melting and/or freezing of the accumulated snow as well as melting of ice in soil. the main objective of this study was to evaluate applicability of shaw model in determining maximum depth of frost penetration in soils in some typical climates of iran. to this end, the daily data of air temperature, soil temperatures ...

one of the major issues of increasing agricultural production, is adaptation of technology to specific climatic variables in cultivated areas. knowing the weather and climatic condition and periodic yearly and multi-year changes of meteorological phenomena and deviations from normal values ​​are of major requirements of modern agriculture. in this study, daily, monthly and annual weather data o...
