in order to achieve a sustainable management and development of natural resources, a set of technical, eco-social, environmental and ecological criteria must be considered in the planning process. an appropriate model is therefore needed to address all the criteria mentioned above, in the decision making process and finally provide a reliable result. in the last few years, analytical hierarchic...

activities of thirty bacterial strains obtained from plants rhizosphere in different areas against phytophthora drechsleri were assessed through in vitro and greenhouse experiments. dual culture and extracellular metabolites tests were used in in vitro assays. the bacterial strains inhibited growth of p. drechsleri, the highest inhibition zones was belonged to t17-4 strain with 61.904% in dual ...

green tea extract has plenty of antioxidant. due to the toxicity of synthetic antioxidants, it is necessary that these antioxidants in products such as donuts be replaced with natural antioxidants. the purpose of this research is to reduce the usage of synthetic antioxidants as it is possible. so the extract was extracted and it was used as a natural antioxidant in the dough of donuts. due to t...

background and objectives: the region of the experiment is located in golestan province, iran, with agriculture subject to various farming conditions (rain-fed and irrigation) and different levels of salinity (more than 38% of golestan’s total land area is salt-affected). the purpose of this study has been to evaluate the stress indices in the selection of tolerant wheat genotypes, not only for...

1. introduction isfahan oil refinery (isfahan, iran) is responsible for the production of huge amounts of oil waste. as the released organic compounds are highly toxic, carcinogenic, and mutagenic, they can potentially contaminate the soil and groundwater resources of the adjacent area. this is particularly important in isfahan where arid/semi-arid climate has limited the access to adequate sur...

three hundred and fifteen day -old chickens were used to test the relationship between oxygen-derived free radicals and the biochemical, hematological and pathological alterations(associtd with ascites). they were randomly divided into three experimental groups and ascites were developed in two groups of animals by exposing them to low temperature or administration of triiodothyronine (t3,), an...

evaluation of river discharges trends is very important for water resources management and design of irrigation and drainage networks. in this research, annual, seasonal and monthly trends of maroon river discharge were evaluated using the mann-kendall and sen’s slope estimator non-parametric tests and the regression analysis parametric test. for this purpose, river discharge data from five h...

evaluation of changes present in soil and water resources due to operation implement of floodwater spreading is necessary to assess their positive or negative resultant effect. rate of the internal sediment to diversion spreader channels, surface sedimentation and aggregation of the spreading field depth are most important effective attributes on the yield of floodwater spreading systems. these...

one of the most important atmospheric systems in the eurasian continent during the northern hemisphere winter season is the siberian high pressure. in this study, using the ncep/ncar reanalysis data for winters of 1948-2008, trend of changes in the intensity of the high system center and its effects on some meteorological fields are investigated. the results show that the 2m height mean tempera...
