Modeling based on equilibrium thermodynamic and physicochemical condition suggests that Bi-rich melts can efficiently scavenge Au from hydrothermal fluids, even if these fluids are highly undersaturated with respect to Au minerals. At this study the Kuh-e Dom prospecting area in northeastern of Ardestan city (northern part of Anarak metallogenic province) as the prominent sample of Iron Oxide C...

Leishmaniasis affects 1.5-2 million people annually and has been recognized as a major public health problem by the World Organization.In Iran the incidence rate of the disease among school children in Ardestan province was 3.2 per thousand. As no effective vaccine has been found yet, control of the disease depends on effective drug therapy. The pentavalent anitmonials (pentostam and glucantime...

The geographical location of Isfahan province has led the province to be at risk of drought. One of the ways to mitigate drought is evaluation and monitoring of drought based on indices that can determine its intensity and permanence in each region. In this research, for drought and trend analysis standard precipitation index and Mann-Kendall test were used, respectively. Also, monthly precipit...

Remote sensing has been considered as an appropriate tool for temporal monitoring of some natural phenomena. Ardestan Region is prone to land degradation and masked by sand sheets, sand dunes, clay flats, desert pavement and different kinds of salt crust due to dry climate. To study the trends of land degradation in last three decades, four satellite data sets of Landsat MSS, Landsat TM, Landsa...
