in this research, some of the echo-physiological characteristics of pistachio trees were studied to understand crop response to drought stress and determine the best irrigation interval. this experiment was carried out in an orchard with a sandy loam textured soil and a commercial cultivar of pistachio named ouhadi grafted on pistacia vera l. rootstock for three years. the irrigation system sel...

microbial demulsifiers represent a potentially important product for the petroleum industry due to their specific modes of action, relative ease of preparation, biodegradability and low toxicity. an extracellular demulsifier, capable of the rapid break up of model multiple water-crude oil emulsions was obtained from the bacterial isolate ochrobactrum anthropi ripi5-1. demulsifying activity of t...

abstract- maize production, which is ranked after wheat and barely in fars province, iran, needs a considerable amount of irrigation water that is not available in scarce water conditions in drought situations. therefore, proper planting method can improve irrigation water management. the objectives of the present study were to investigate the effects of two planting methods, on-bed and in furr...

it is over two decades that groundwater flow models are routinely implemented for better management of groundwater resources.modeling groundwater flow with the help of the ground water modeling system (gms) in the damghan plain aquifer in northern iran,which experiences declining levels and numerous environmental hazards, has demonstrated that, (a) in the worst case scenario theaquifer will fac...

introduction: a major concern of human being is accumulation and toxicity of heavy metals in their body. copper is a heavy metal ion that in concentration of 2 mg/l can cause numerous complications. different treatment methods have been proposed for removing metals from contaminated water by researchers. among these methods, sorption seems a better method with high removal efficiency. in this s...
