the kalut-e-ashrafa area is located in the north-east of ardakan area in central iran, yazd province. this area promises copper mineralization. the most of the minerals in this study area are silica-rich veins and veinlets. therefore, in order to identify geological formations with silica zones and to determine potential mineralization areas, aster images and remote sensing methods were used. a...

this research was conducted in order to study the effect of climate and geology factors on groundwater sources in mahvelat plain. in order to study the groundwater quality and quantity considering groundwater resources including wells and qanats; using groundwater surface, electric conduction (ec) and the total density solution (tds), the maps of groundwater surface fluctuation and quality para...

sarbisheh mineral occurrence is located in the vicinity of the tourshab village about 50 km south of birjand, the center of southern khorassan province, east iran. the predominant geologic characteristics of the region are highly-tectonic deformation, and intrusive, granodiroritic-dioritic, to volcanic, dacitic-andsitic rocks associated with broad alteration. to the northern part of the studied...

[1] Several chains of receivers, measuring total electron content (TEC) during passes of satellites in the U.S. Navy Ionospheric Measuring System (NIMS), are operated at northern high latitudes by members of the International Ionospheric Tomography Community (IITC). Results are presented here of nearly simultaneous latitude-altitude images of the ionosphere over Scandinavia, Greenland, and Alas...

In recent years, the topic of desertification has been discussed in different ways in scientific areas. This event occurred globally, regionally and nationally and many steps were taken to stop it. Desertification is challenged universally and its destructive effects are unavoidable and its consequences do endanger the life of inhabitants. The identification of sensitive regions and prevention ...

One of the most important tasks in sensor networks is to determine the physical location of sensory nodes as they may not all be equipped with GPS receivers. In this paper we propose a localization method for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) using a single mobile beacon. The sensor locations are maintained as probability distributions that are sequentially updated using Monte Carlo sampling as t...
