coral reefs which form some of the most diverse ecosystems on earth support many symbiotic relationships. symbiodinium can provide up to 90% of a coral.s energy requirements. temperature rise, turbid water and high salinity in the persian gulf were among the factors separating zooxanthellae from corals and result in bleaching phenomenon. therefore, it is crucial to identify symbiodinium of the ...

Field studies were conducted in a number of intertidal and offshore islands in the Persian Gulf between 2006 to 2013. SCUBA and skin diving surveys were conducted around Larak, Hormuz, Qeshm, Hengam, Farur, Kish, Lavan, Khark and Farsi islands in the northern region of the Persian Gulf. Marine invertebrates including nudibranchs were photographed up to 32 m. Several species of nudibranchs are r...

We consider the influence of realistic island diffusion rates to homoepitaxial growth on metallic surfaces using a recently developed rate equation model which describes growth in the submonolayer regime with hyperthermal deposition. To this end, we incorporate realistic size and temperature-dependent island diffusion coefficients for the case of homoepitaxial growth on Cu(100) and Cu(111) surf...

The importance of language in the changing usage of particular environments is a topic worthy of greater attention than hitherto. Fraser Island has passed through a period of intense political conflict to one in which it is dominated by the new discourse of ecotourism. It is now part of that global development in which it is claimed that tourists can become properly informed about, and become p...

concentrations of lead (pb) were found in the shells of the oyster saccostrea cucullata and sediments in may 2010. samples were obtained at four sites on qeshm island, at three sites on hormoz island, and at three sites in lengeh port along the intertidal coast of the persian gulf of iran. the levels of pb in sediments and shells were analyzed by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrophotom...
