the siyah bisheh area is located in central part of alborz zone, 40km south of amol, iran. rock units exposing in the area consists of sedimentary (carbonates, sandstone, siltstone), volcano- sedimentary (andesite to andesitic tuff, tuff), ignimbrite and basalt. when erosion and tectonics have rendered volcanic structures undetectable, remote sensing provides an invaluable tool for their ide...

for the first time, an assemblage of cryptospores, which includes 10 species belonging to nine genera, from the upper ordovicianstrata, is being reported, in iran. these cryptospore assemblages were recovered from the upper part of ghelli formation., from theeastern alborz mountain range. these peri-gondwanan cryptospores have been classified based on their morphology (monad, truedyad, pseudody...

springs are the important water resources, which thier study is necessary in terms of their management and exploitation. in northern iran, the karst springs locate in the central alborz highlands and alluvial springs on the caspian southern coasts.the karst and alluvial springs discharge is variable because of different conditions in terms of aquifer, topography and precipitation .this study ha...

evaluation of range conditions and plant diversity circumstances can help to rangeland managers who establish their managerial approaches on the basis of ecological capabilities of rangeland ecosystems. hence, surveying of rangelands was done in four sites of northern alborz mt. including western alborz (masooleh site), west to middle alborz (javaherdeh site), central area (polour site), and ea...

this paper utilises the modified folchi method to assess the environmental impact of coal washing plant, alborz sharghi, north-east iran. in this study, the number of factors designed in the method was slightly modified by focusing on the environmental impact of coal washing operations. in addition, few other factors were designed and added to the previous factors. then, twenty-one values of en...

background unlike developed countries, data from the developing world regarding motor developmental disorders is scarce. objectives in the present study, we used the infant neurological international battery (infanib) test to determine the prevalence of motor impairment in 4-18 month-old infants in alborz province, iran, in 2010. patients and methods this study was a descriptive-analytic study ...

members of the family laccophyllidae are small, solitary rugose corals with stratigraphic ranges from silurian to permian. among the laccophyllids, axial ends of major septa are united in an aulos and dissepiments may be absent or present. minor septa can be contratingent and sometimes are small or in some genera are absent. septa and aulos may be thick or thin. in this study, famennian rugose ...

this paper presents evidence on mesozoic inversion of basin bounding faults within the taleqan-gajereh-lar paleograben (tglp) in central alborz range. for this purpose, well documented stratigraphy data across the tglp together with the new acquired structural data on the geometry and kinematics of the paleograben basin bounding faults are utilized. the tglp has evolved through the early and mi...
