This river is the longest river which located just inside Iran and Ahvaz Metropolis drinking water supplied from Karun River as well (fa.alalam.ir). Karun River as the main source of water treatment plants in Ahvaz, like most surface waters affected by various contaminants which caused changes in water quality of the river (www.aww.co.ir...

Rivers can absorb certain amounts of contamination relying on different factors such as: river discharge, the primary conditions of the river, the river depth, discharge and the river viscosity of the offloaded wastes in the river. From parameters of water quality point of view, it is recom-mended to determine some parts of the river which are lower than the standard level in order to find out ...

in the turfgrass industry, the need for salinity tolerant turfgrasses is increasing because of the increased use of saline and non-potable water. greenhouse container experiments were conducted to determine the relative salinity tolerance and growth responses of eleven native populations of tall fescue (festuca arundinacea schrub) (tf), including: semirom, mashhad, sanandaj, yasuj, yazd abad, d...

drought stress is the main limiting factor in the arid and semi-arid region of the world. this research was conducted to evaluate drought tolerance in different accessions of sainfoin for yield, morphological and agronomic traits in 2010. twenty one accessions (landraces and varieties) were evaluated in two environments including drought stress and non-stress conditions for four harvests accord...

1. introduction the analysis of drainage networks is a powerful tool to detect recent tectonic activity and uplift, as river channels are very sensitive to changes in the parameters that control their shapes and. climate changes, tectonics and lithology affect river equilibrium conditions and hence, river geometry. a river is in dynamic equilibrium when erosion keeps pace with sedimentation and...
