The population parameters of Malabar trevally (Carangoides malabaricus) were studied in the Persian Gulf and Oman Sea from December 2016 to November 2017. 1030 specimens were collected. The fork length ranged from 14 to 34 cm, with average 25.60±3.52 cm. The total weight ranged from 60.4 to 534.5 g, with average 329.03±113.46 g. The asymptotic length (L∞) and growth coefficient (K) were 37 cm a...

In the present contribution, intertidal caprellids of the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman were studied. Materials were collected, from 40 localities, with a variety of habitats, along the Iranian coasts. Three new species are described including; Metaprotella macoranicus sp. nov, Monoliropus kazemii sp. nov, Pseudaeginella hormozensis sp. nov and Pseudocaprel-linapambanensis is reported from ...

During the Persian Gulf and Oman Sea Oceanographic study (PG-GOOS) in autumn 2012, sampling of macrobenthos was undertaken in 31 stations in Hormozgan Province waters. Three samples were taken from each site using Van Veen grab. Effects of environmental variables on assemblages and distributions of macrobenthos were analyzed. A total of 5677 individuals of macrobenthos were counted being repres...

Histological changes and maturity stages during the reproductive cycle of the ovaries of Klunzinger's Mullet (Liza klunzingeri) were investigated. The evaluation of the spawning season was carried out based on monthly samples from 3 stations in the Persian Gulf and the Oman Sea. Sex ratio was approximately 1:3 (M: F). The maturity stages of female L. Kluningeri are: Virgin, Developing Virgin, D...

Shrimp aquaculture has a short history in I.R Iran. Farmed shrimp production grew slowly from 1992 until 2000 when a number of large farms started to produce. In 2000, the total production was about 4,500 MT and it was estimated that more than 7,000 MT would be produce by the year 2001. From August 1997 to March 1998, two thousand samples of cultured Penaeus semisulcatus postlarvae and subadult...

during the fifth and sixth centuries a.h, the persian gulf faced a recession in its commerce; instead, the centrality of the international maritime trade was transferred to the red sea and mediterranean region at the time. emergence of the kish island, as a significant trade area in the persian gulf region goes back to the mid-sixth century a.h. efforts made by a local tribe known as bani qaysa...

one of the difficulties in using absolute altitudes is the separation between the mean open sealevel and geoid. theoretically, geoid is the base level in absolute altitudes, but practically, the mean open sealevel is used as a base level for absolute altitudes. the difference between these two levels is called as the seasurface topography. in this research, it is dealt the mean sea level modeli...
