Abstract Climate change has become a widespread and relatively dominant phenomenon at present. It has affected many atmospheric processes such as rainfall, dust storms, temperature increasing and so for. These changes are very important for the living environment and thus needed to study and understand. Therefore the main objective of this study is to investigate the temporal and spatial variat...

Background and Objective: Due to the spread of dusty air and the transfer of these particles to the cities of Khuzestan province, it is very important to study the status of these particles in terms of heavy metal pollution and their pollution status. Materials and Methods: In this study, the concentrations of Cr, Cu, Zn, Pb, Ni, Mn, Mg and Fe in the air of 4 cities of Khuzestan province (Ahva...

Introduction: increasing dusty storms has been one of the most important consequences of climate change in recent years that directly or indirectly affected human society. Countries located in the arid and semiarid regions of the world, including Iran, have been affected more than other parts of the globe by this natural disaster and its harmful consequences, especially the atmospheric dust, wh...

Background and Objective: During the last few years, air pollution and increasing levels of particulate matters (PMs) have become major public health issues in the megacity of Tehran. The high cost of constructing and maintaining air pollution monitoring stations has made it difficult to achieve adequate spatial-temporal coverage of PM data over various regions. In this regard, the use of remot...
