abstract in this paper, we modeled the climate of iran for future periods. each period is a 30-years period centered on a year. the range of periods is from 2000 (i.e., 1986-2015) to 2100 (i.e., 2086-2115). this was made using 2 general circulation models (echam4 and hadcm2) and 18 ipcc scenarios. magicc-scengen was used as a tool for downscaling gcm low resolution output data. result of hadcm2...

a strategy employing moderate hypothermia for the replacement of the aortic arch is proposed to avoid the complications of profound hypothermic circulatory arrest. two patients underwent the complete replacement of the aortic arch using three pumps - for the brain, thoracoabdominal aorta, and heart, respectively. there were no complications and the patients were extubated uneventfully. the meth...

precipitation data is of utmost importance to carry out many hydro-meteorological studies. observed warming over several decades has been linked to changes in the large-scale hydrological cycle such as: increasing atmospheric water vapour content, changing precipitation patterns, intensity and extremes, reduced snow cover and widespread melting of ice, and changes in soil moisture and runoff. p...

the present research focuses on the changes of urmia lake level. for this purpose, two timescales have been considered. the trend changes of temperature, precipitation rate and quantitative values of climate type for the observational period from 1968 to 2011 (past scale) and from 2011 to 2100 (future scale) have been analyzed. general circulation model (gcm) is considered for simulating the va...

THIS is the first of three volumes on the circulation which will make up the second section of the Handbook of Physiology. It follows the first section of three volumes on neurophysiology and will be followed by further sections covering respiration, renal physiology, endocrine physiology, etc. The concept of the Handbook is a very important landmark in the development of physiological literatu...

weather circulation patterns play a main role in the occurrence of environmental phenomena especially in middle latitude. occurrence of dry and wet spells is in relation to synoptical system repetitions and types of weather. in this research first by using of standard precipitation index (spi), extensive droughts in the province were identified. then by using principal component analysis (pca) ...

abstract in this research, four meteorological set of data including maximum temperature, minimum temperature, precipitation and radiation from echo-g, under a1scenario have been used for climate change detection over south khorasan. echo-g is a general circulation model that currently is used in hamburg university and korea meteorological research institute. in this research climate change ass...
