the main objective of this research was assessing the effects of land use on runoff parameters such as total runoff, surface runoff and peak discharges at the baghsalian watershed as a case study site. at first, land use maps of 1986 and 2012 were prepared using a synthetic method and landsat images. wetspa model was applied to simulate daily runoff for 8 years (the first 5 years as calibration...

Cavitation decreases the hydraulic conductance of the xylem and has, therefore, detrimental effects on plant water balance. However, cavitation is also hypothesized to relieve water stress temporarily by releasing water from embolizing conduits to the transpiration stream. Stomatal closure in response to decreasing water potentials in order to avoid excessive cavitation has been well documented...

Fluoride is one of the parameters which is non-degradable and naturally occurring inorganic anion found in many natural streams, lakes, and groundwater. Serious problems are faced in several parts of India due to the high consumption of fluoride through drinking water. These may cause dental and skeletal fluorosis to humans. This study aims to examine the level of fluoride in both Bharalu river...

Aiming for the advancement of tsunami load, historical and/or prospective scale evaluations, practical empirical formulas evaluating friction factor K inundation flow and density ρ water over a movable bed, which can be applied to run-up theory, are proposed using experimental data whose amount (range) is increased (expanded) by carrying out additional experiments on with sediment, verification...
