Urbanism directly affects the hydrological cycle. One of the ways to manage runoffs in urban areas that is considered nowadays is green roof creation. Green roof is mainly created in humid and semi-humid areas, and efficiency of green roofs in arid and semi-arid areas has attracted less attention. In the current study, to evaluate the effect of green roof in arid and semi-arid to reduce runoff,...

Due to growing demand and reduction of water resources increasing pollution water, driven by dramatic population economic growth, arid semi-arid land’s imminent problems are nowadays aggravating. This study aims determine the most appropriate management strategies for balancing Abhar plain aquifer using SWOT coupled with AHP technique. The results indicate that weaknesses prevail over strengths...

Statistical frequency analysis is the most common procedure for the analysis of flood data at a gauged location thatin first step it is needed to select a model to represent the population. Among them, the central moment has been themost common and widely used, and with the using of computers, the application of the maximum likelihood hasincreased. This research was carried out in order to reco...

Marshlands in arid and semi-arid areas are considered constantly changing environments due to unsecured water supplies as a result of high evapotranspiration limited highly variable rainfall. Classification marshlands these regions mapping their land cover is not an easy task maps need be upgraded frequently. Satellites provide enormous amounts information data for the continuous monitoring cha...

the relative impacts of different types of land use on the surface water quality are yet to be ascertained and quantified. in this paper, the influence of different types of land use on surface water quality is investigated. rain events samples from different land use in the central plateau, iran, were analyzed for major ions. statistical analyses were employed to examine the statistical relati...
