River Hasdeo is life line for many district and villages that came across its bank. The water is used for various purposes like as drinking water, in agriculture etc. hence one of the greatest concerns for the water consumers with respect to the quality of drinking water is contamination with pathogenic microorganisms and various industrial effluents. Microbiological river water quality is obli...

The Lake Urmia and its satellite wetlands have been selected as a demonstration site for the United Nations Development Program / Global Environment Facility / Department of Environment Conservation of Iranian Wetlands Project. This project aims to demonstrate reduction of the major threats of this wetland protected area coordinated through an integrated management plan. A choice experiment was...

phytoplankton and zooplankton concentrations in pishin reservoir are predicted employing a three-dimensional numerical model in this paper. modeling is performed using a numerical model based on mass transport equation. advection, diffusion and source/sink processes are considered as separate subroutines for predicting the concentrations of phytoplankton and zooplankton in the reservoir. finite...

background: the purpose of study was to evaluate and compare chemical quality of iranian bottled drinking water reported on manufacturer's labeling and standards. methods: this study was a cross-sectional descriptive study and done during july to december 2008. the bottled mineral water collected from shops randomly were analyzed for all parameters address on manufacturer's labeling and the res...

Developments in computer technology have revolutionized the study of hydrologic systems and water resources management. Several computer-based hydrologic/water quality models have been developed for applications in hydrologic modelling and water resources studies. Distributed parameter models, necessary for basin-scale studies, have large input data requirements. Geographic information systems ...
