a detailed standard magnetotelluric (mt) study was conducted to recognize brine bearing layers in depths of less than 2000 m in the northeast of iran close to the southeastern shore of the caspian sea. long and medium period natural-field mt methods have proved very useful for subsurface mapping purpose by determining the resistivity of the near surface structure. mt data were analyzed and mode...

archaeological excavations on the western part of the central iranian plateau, known as the qazvin plain provides invaluable information about the sedentary communities from early occupation to the later prehistoric era. despite the past archeological data, chronological studies mostly rely on the relative use of the bayesian modeling for stratigraphically-related radiocarbon dates. the current...

A sedimentary pollen sequence from the coastal plain of Veracruz, Mexico, demonstrates maize cultivation by 5,000 years ago, refining understanding of the geography of early maize cultivation. Methodological issues related to bioturbation involved in dating that record combine with its similarity to a pollen sequence from the coastal plain of Tabasco, Mexico, to suggest that the inception of ma...

background: a substantial proportion of college students to not drink enough water and consume sugar-sweetened beverages (ssbs). consumption of ssbs is associated with weight gain, obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, dental carries, and increased risk for cardiovascular disease. hence, the purpose of this study was to use the multi-theory model (mtm) in predicting initiation and sustenance of pl...

Many stone tools were found on a hill south of the Hor Al-Dalmaj which is located in central part alluvial plain Mesopotamia, between Tigris and Euphrates Rivers. The types rocks from studied made are not plain, because it consists friable sand, silt, clay. All existing sediments precipitated riverine environments such as point bar, over bank, floodplain sediments. collected described with magn...
