Water deficiency is an important factor for plant growth in arid environments. Foliar application of methanol in C3 plants is believed to be more important in water stress tolerance. In order to evaluate the effects of foliar application of methanol on photosynthetic features, chlorophyll fluorescence and chlorophyll content of lentil under water deficit stress, a factorial experiment in comple...

In order to investigate the effects of water deficit stress on grain yield and some traits three sunflower cultivars, have been used based on randomized complete block design using a split plot experiment at Agricultural Research Station of Azad University of Tabriz in 2007. Five levels of water deficit (50, 100, 150, 200 and 250 mm evaporation from evaporation pan, class A) were assigned as m...

In order to study the effects of foliar application of phosphorus (P) and water deficit on yield and yield components of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L., cv. Alvand), a split-plot experiment, with completely randomized blocks design and three replications, was carried out at the Research Farm of Boyer Ahmad Agricultural and Natural Resources Research Station, 13 km west of Yasouj, in 2008-20...

rivers and runoff have always been of interest to human beings. in order to make use of the proper water resources, human societies, industrial and agricultural centers, etc. have usually been established near rivers. as the time goes on, these societies developed, and therefore water resources were extracted more and more. consequently, conditions of water quality of the rivers experienced rap...

cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...

Irrigation water deficit is an important factor that affect rice production in the world as well as Guilan province in Iran. Intermittent irrigation method can be applied to compensate for the water shortage in rice growing areas, however, it would affect other crop mangement practices such as fertilizer application and mangement. Therefore, this experiment was conducted to determine optimum fe...

One of ways to cope the drought stress is using tolerant plant and water preservative materials in the soil such as zeolite. Hemp is one of drug and oilseed plants.To evaluate the effect of zeolite in the modulation of deficit irrigation stress and improve the function and growth indices of Hemp, an experiment was conducted as split plot in a randomized completely block design with three replic...

gol-e-gohar iron ore mine of sirjan in southern part of iran is a large open pit that operates below the groundwater table and during mining operation, dewatering is required to prevent operation processes from flooding. current operation is going on by digging wells in or out of the pit and pumping to prevent flooding. as a result of the former dewatering operation a vast deep cone of depressi...
