up to now, there is no habitat suitability index model for common otter in iran. this species is an index species for clean ecosystems and consequently, an important animal. model prepared, considering dependent variables to show vital needs for this animal in the shenrood river located in the deylaman-dorfak prohibited hunting area in iran. hep method was applied and important factors were sel...

With ever increasing energy demand no site for setting up power plant can be left un-harnessed. Therefore, in the present work a methodology based upon the combination of graph theory and matrix method is developed so that an site may be evaluated in terms of best suitability for setting up a power plant. Factor responsible for best operational performance of a power plant are identified and ev...

quantification of the habitat available for fish species named rainbow trout (oncorhynchusmykiss) were evaluated in lees ferry, colorado river using water depth, water temperature, sediment transport,flow velocity in 2004 as environmental index. for the flow velocity and temperature distribution calculationsin the river, the navier-stokes equation and energy conservation equations with finite v...
