abstract in order to evaluation the effects of price policies (wheat guarantee price in each period and its price lag), environmental (planted area) and climatic (min and max average temperature, total annual precipitation, cold-day degree and hot-day degree) factors, we considered wheat yield in razavi-khorasan province (9 cities) for a 13-year statistical period (1371-72 to 1383-84). in this ...

the field study was conducted in one district of educational-experimental forest at tehran university (kheirood-kenar forest) in the north of iran. eighty-five soil profiles were dug in the site of study and several chemical and physical soil properties were considered. these factors included: soil ph, soil texture, bulk density, organic carbon, total nitrogen, extractable phosphorus and depth ...

spatial patterns are useful descriptors of the horizontal structure in a plant population and may change over time as the individual components of the population grow or die out. but, whether this is the case for desert woody annuals is largely unknown. in the present investigation, the variations in spatial patterns of tribulus terrestris during different pulse events in semi-arid area of the ...

this study aims to assess the effect of grazing intensity on vegetation structure, soil nutrient concentrations and soil physical properties. the study was carried out in steppe rangelands of saveh, markazi province, iran. four sites with four grazing intensities including very high, high, moderate and non-grazed with the same ecological conditions were selected. to study various vegetation and...

we report on the synthesis, morphology, chemically and structurally of tio2-cuo-sio2 nanostructure with different precursors molar ratio and calcined temperatures. in the present work, ternary reactive powders in the tio2-cuo-sio2 systems have been obtained using the sol-gel method, by the simultaneous gelation of all cations. the compounds and other elements change in special chemical and phys...
