one of the methods used in the analysis of data related to diseases, and their underlying reasons is drawing geographical map. mapping diseases is a valuable tool to determine the regions of high rate of infliction requiring therapeutic interventions. the objective of this study was to investigate obesity pattern in iran by drawing geographical maps based on bayesian spatial model to recognize ...

mapping based on total concentrations of micronutrients may be useful in fertility management including fertilizer and/or wastewater application. the aims of this work were to (1) investigate the spatial distribution of total concentrations of copper (cu), zinc (zn), manganese (mn) and iron (fe); (2) to select the suitable spatial estimator; and (3) to understand the effect of wastewater irriga...

although typically small in terms of their spatial footprint, landslide hazards are relativelyfrequent in northern iran. we assess landslide susceptibility for the nearly 20.000 km2 large study area of the urmia lake basin which is dominated by agricultural land use but includes the major settlements areas of the east azerbaijan province, iran. landslide factors are established in form of gis d...

Background and aims: Shigellosis or bacillary dysentery is an infectious disease transmitted through water and food. It is a type of infectious colitis caused by Shigella bacteria. The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence and the spatial distribution of shigellosis and its relationship with climatic factors in Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari province. Methods: In this study, population of...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the spatial changes of groundwater phosphate concentrations using geostatistical methods based on data from 10 groundwater wells. One of the conventional tools in decision making on the groundwater management is geostatistical method. To evaluate the spatial changes of phosphate concentrations in groundwater, the universal kriging method with cross-vali...

so far several methods have been developed for mapping and interpolation of isohyets.one of the recently accepted methods is geographically weighting regression which is suitable for evaluation of spatial heterogeneity of dependent variable by using local regressions. in order to evaluate annually precipitation spatial variation, this study was conducted in gilan province which precipitation is...
