application of sulfur as a means of lowering soil ph (even if at micro sites) is one way to increase the availability of insoluble nutrients/ effectiveness of elemental sulfur in lowering soil ph depends on the activity of sulfur oxidizing bacteria especially, thiobacillus genus/ to evaluate the possibility of partially substituting sulfur along thiobacillus inoculum for phosphorus and micronut...

increasing growth of population leads to increase in human activities such as agriculture and industry, which these activities increasing and irregular usage of fertilizers, pesticides and insecticides result in soil and groundwater pollution. meanwhile, vulnerability assessment can play important role in the management of polluting activities. in this research a new method has been proposed fo...

thermoluminescence (tl) dating was established in oxford to fulfil the demand for dating ceramics and other heated man made products (aitken, 1985).  it determines the time elapsed since the mineral grains have been heated. following the establishment of tl dating method, it was used to date fired materials such as pottery, flint and etc. optically stimulated luminescence (osl) determines the t...

development of remote sensing (rs) and gis techniques and that of landscape metrics in the late 1980s have caused to introduce a new dimension in the landscape ecology arena (the relationship between spatial patterns and ecological processes). however, scale dependence of some of landscape metrics and rs systems of different spatial resolution has resulted in particular attention into selection...

drought as a climatic phenomenon affected many different environmental issues and generally is associated with the decreasing in average precipitation. evaluation and monitoring of the drought is a fundamental step in proper programming of water resources management. regarding the recent conditions water scarcity in the urmia lake basin, assessment of the drought index in this region is inevita...

decreasing water loss and increasing the irrigation times are basic methods to develop agriculture, success in natural recourse projects, minimize the stress to planted bushes in natural fields and increase the productivity of soil and water sources. the use of super absorbent is one of these strategies to achieve these goals. the main purpose of this research was to study the effect of super a...

introduction malachite green (mg) has been used as a food coloring agent, food additive, medical disinfectant as well as a dye in silk, wool, jute, leather, cotton, paper, and acrylic industries. it is also extensively used as a topical fungicide and ectoparasiticide in aquaculture industries throughout the world. the findings reveal that this dye has now become one of the most controversial co...

introduction rhodium metal is known for its stability in corrosive environments, physical beauty, and its unique properties. rhodium is now widely used for alloying platinum in thermocouples, crucibles, evaporating dishes, weighing boats windings for high-temperature furnaces. it has been applied as a coating material because of the hardness and luster of its surface. rhodium is present at abou...

in order to study the complementary effects of application time of two herbicides sulfosulfuron 75% wg (apyrus) and 75% sulfosulfuron + 5% metsulfuron-methyl (total) and planting wheat density on wild barley (hordeum spontaneum koch.) control, an experiment was conducted in randomized complete blocks design with two-factors during 2012-2013 growing season in zarghan (fars). the first factor was...

abstract:â green spaces, especially urban gardens have been a subject of study in many countries for a long time, but the subject has been mostly overlooked in iran. therefore, this study tries to analyze the changes in land use and how we can protect green spaces (gardens) in jahrom in line with sustainable development in 1996-2006. the data in this study were collected through local investiga...
