in this paper the minimum temperatures of 54 weather stations collected for a 31-year period were analyzed for zoning the frost regions in iran. the results of this study show that the average of the number of frost days per year was 62, and the average temperature was 3 degrees of centigrade below zero. dey the tenth month in the iranian calendar, december 22-january 20 with an average of 28, ...

the karnafully is one of the most important rivers due to its profound influence on water chemistry and sediment characteristics. the present study intended to assess the quality of water and sediment from intertidal zone of this river in respect to the pollution index. seasonal water and sediment samples were collected during four seasons (monsoon, post-monsoon, winter, and pre-monsoon) of 201...

introduction: the accuracy of analyzing functional mri (fmri) data is usually decreases in the presence of noise and artifact sources. a common solution in for analyzing fmri data having high noise is to use suitable preprocessing methods with the aim of data denoising. some effects of preprocessing methods on the parametric methods such as general linear model (glm) have previously been evalua...

abstract aim and background: evaluation of cognition is fundamental for every comprehensive epilepsy program. we sought to conduct this study to assess memory state of patients with refractory temporal lobe epilepsy before decision for epilepsy surgery. method and materials: in a case-control study, 20 patients with right temporal lobe epilepsy and 20 patients with left temporal lobe epilepsy w...

Covariance functions and variograms play a fundamental role in exploratory analysis and statistical modelling of spatial and spatio-temporal datasets. In this paper, we construct a new class of spatial covariance functions using the Fourier transform of some higher-order kernels. Moreover, we extend this class of spatial covariance functions to the spatio-temporal setting using the idea used in...

Iran is one of the world's arid regions and exposed to dust particles in the air. This is important in spatial and temporal terms as well as the affects human health. In this paper a day when due to the amount of dust particles visibility reduces to 5,000 m is considered the dusty day. In the spatial and temporal analysis of dusty days 38 synoptic stations were studied. In order to conduct data...
