the study of spatial and temporal changes in climate parameters, is one the most important issues in the world's climate research. study of changes in cloud cover as one of the most important climate parameters is important, because clouds are in top of hydrologic cycle and changes in them make changes in spatial and temporal variations in other climate parameters. in this study, the spati...

members of cyperacea family are among the common host species of rust fungi. to our knowledge, till now seven puccinia species have been recorded on cyperaceous plants in iran. of these, four species were known on carex. in present report, other rust species are reported on carex orbicularis subsp. kotschyana (boiss. & hohenacker) kukkonen. this report is based on infected specimen collected fr...

An abrupt global warming event has been recorded in many parts of the world in sediments of Latest Maastrichtian age between 65.45-65.10 Ma. This warm event was documented here at a section near Ziyarat-kola in Central Alborz based on analysis of planktonic foraminifera. An unusual abundance of normally large-size species such as Globotruncana arca, Globigerinelloides subcarinatus, Pseudoguembe...

The study area is located ~50 km in the north of Tehran capital city, Iran, and is a part of central Alborz Mountain. The intrusive bodies aged post Eocene have intruded in the Eocene volcanic units causing hydrothermal alterations in these units. Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) images were used to map hydrothermal alteration zones. The propylitic, phyllic...

Background and objectives: Hippophae rhamnoides L. known as sea buckthorn is a deciduous medicinal shrub belonging to Elaeagnaceae family. In this study, the most important chemical constituents of sea buckthornwere evaluated in wild populations of central Alborz Mountains in Iran during the growth season of 2014 and 2015. Methods: Phy...

magnetotellurics (mt) is an electromagnetic geophysical method of imaging the earth's subsurface by measuring natural variations of the electrical and magnetic fields at the earth's surface. investigation depth ranges from 300m below ground by recording higher frequencies down to 10,000m or deeper with long-period soundings. research applications include experimentation to further dev...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a frequent opportunistic pathogen in health care associated infections that is highly resistant to the majority of β-lactams. The aims of this study were to access the antimicrobial susceptibility pattern of P. aeruginosa isolated from educational hospitals of Qazvin and Alborz provinces, to determine the prevalence of metallo-β-lactamase (MBL...

This paper expands the previous efforts by other researchers to present a quantitative and deterministic approach for terrain analysis. This study evaluates both spatial and temporal factors contributing landslides utilizing Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) point clouds in conjunction with the frequency ratio model (PFR) than has previously been used in the Alborz Mountains. The study area i...
