salmas plain is located at the west of uremia lake and at the 75 km of north of uremia city. the main river of the plain, called zulachai, is drained into uremia lake. salmas aquifer is one of the coastal aquifers of uremia lake and has hydraulic connection with the lake. the recent draught occurrences and increased water consumption in agriculture and drinking sections water have not only caus...

in this paper the response modification factor due to ductility and saved strength of cylindrical concrete elevated and ground tanks is obtained using finite element method and nonlinear push over analysis considering the lateral effective modes of tanks. to modeling the behavior of the tank materials, the five parameters william-warnke and prefect elastoplastic models are used for concrete and...

Radiocarbon dating of ground water is used in combination with the primary measurements of classical hydrological and chemical analyses. Radiocarbon dating will produce the best results when it involves multiple measurements or sequential sampling. The most useful data come from these comparisons and not from absolute ages. In the case of multiple measurements, the apparent ages of the ground w...

abstract the use of water sources has increased due to extend of agricultural activity for answering food needs of increasing population. while because of exploitation and consumption of water, the use of this restricted resource is not appropriate. consequently in many districts of country the head level of ground water aquifers have been fallen and water level is negative. so, application of ...

1 Ground water is an almost ubiquitous source of generally high-quality fresh water. These characteristics promote its widespread development, which can be scaled and localized to demand, obviating the need for substantial infrastructure1. Globally, ground water is the source of one third of all freshwater withdrawals, supplying an estimated 36%, 42% and 27% of the water used for domestic, agri...

The age of ground water in any given sample is a distributed quantity representing distributed provenance (in space and time) of the water. Conventional analysis of tracers such as unstable isotopes or anthropogenic chemical species gives discrete or binary measures of the presence of water of a given age. Modeled ground water age distributions provide a continuous measure of contributions from...

abstract this research investigates the effect of drought on ground water table of neishabour plain. the precipitation data of nishabour synoptic station during 1990-2001, the bar climatology station during 1964-2001 and the data of hydrometric stations of kherv and bar in 1996-2001 have been used as the base of analysis. the method of herbest et all has been used to analyze the drought. using ...

in iraq, waste generation was increased after 2003 war events due to intensepopulation developmentand economic growth. the limitation of designable system for municipal solidwaste (msw) management led toserious problems regarding environment and human health. sanitary landfill in the south of kirkuk is the first kindof effective system for municipal solid waste management in iraq. in the first ...

study of the ground water quality in hodeidah is an essential ingredient for a healthypopulation. in this research, study of drinking water samples for eight water sources wells in thequti field has been achieved. the purpose was to a certain the quality of water from thesesources, the physical properties such as ph, electrical conductivity (ec) and total dissolvedsolids (tds), showed the varia...
