in this study two intelligent systems, based on adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference systems (anfis) and artificial neural networks (anns) of forecasting municipal solid wastes (msw) generation has been proposed. anfis and anns as an intelligent tool compared with together was used to monthly prediction of msw generated in tehran. monthly amount of solid wastes (sw), total monthly precipitation, mont...

remote sensing is a key technology for assessing expansion and rate of land cover changes that awareness of these changes as the basic information has a special importance for various programs. in this study, land use changes were examined over the past 24 years, and the feasibility of predicting it in the future was evaluated by using the markov chain model of the abbas plain. landsat tm, etm+...

improving the processing and the recycled paper properties is one of permanent concern of papermaking. in this research, the effect of nanochitosan addition on the process and product quality made of writing and printing recycled fiber was investigated. being nano size and so its capability in access to the space between pulp suspension components and also its probable ability to make electrost...

common bacterial blight (cbb) of bean caused by xanthomonas axonopodis pv. phaseoli is a seriously important disease that adversely affects the quantity and quality of seed. cultivation of resistant cultivars is the most effective method of  the disease control. to identify disease resistant genotypes of selected beans, an experiment was conducted in  agriculture and natural resources research ...

in general, spring cultivation of sugar beet is prevalent, but nowadays because of water sources limitation and also plants low water use efficiency in this time of cultivation, autumn cultivation is growing up. several assessments also have showed that in compare with spring cultivation, autumn cultivation of sugar beet has other benefits including reducing the likelihood of plant disease and ...

the main goal of interpretation of potential fields (gravity and magnetic) data is determination of the buried source parameters including the depth, horizontal position, the structural index and the physical properties, which is magnetic susceptibility in the magnetic cases and density for gravity fields. for a large number of data it is so expensive modelling the data by using the inversion a...

in order to determine the practical method to predict economic production of wheat in competition with feral rye by using regression models, a factorial experiment was carried out based on randomized complete block design with three replications in dargaz. iran. experimental factors were included wheat cultivars (sayson, alvand, chamran and sepahan) and feral rye densities (0, 20, 40, 60 and 80...

abstract ground water flow and skin is the most important phenomenon in the process streams are involved not only in the face of the whole earth, but also of the life of man on earth can. degradation of coastal erosion, lateral stability and continuity in iran and around the world each year destroys fertilized agricultural lands around the river, coastal installations, bridges, and is general h...

this research was conducted to evaluate the effects of synthetic methionine replacement with herbal methionine (hm) on performance, blood biochemical parameters and carcass characteristics in broiler chicken. a total of 280 8-old ross 308 male chicken were randomly assigned to 7 dietary treatments: control, in which 100% methionine requirement was supplied form dl-methionine, and in treatments ...

in order to assess the drought tolerance in 15 lentil genotypes, a field experiment was conducted during 2001-02 growing season in dryland agricultural research institute (dari) station of shirvan, in northern khorasan, iran, under rainfed and irrigated conditions. the experimental design was rcb with three replications. data for agronomic traits of plant height, number of empty and filled pods...
