This paper reports the prevalence of malarial parasites in the human population of District Ziarat and Sanjavi. Out of a total of 3765 blood samples 26.8% were found positive for malarial parasite. The incidence of Plasmodium falciparum was 69.5% and that of P. vivax was 30.2%. The incidence was higher (75.9%) in males. Age wise, the prevalence of the disease was 22.2% in Ziarat and 35.2% in Sa...

The main objective of this study was to investigate the effect of forest road construction on the Soil Organic Carbon Stock (SOCS) in Ziarat Catchment. Therefore, soil samples were collected from five land use types including road construction, cultivated area, channel bank, pasture and forest land and soil organic carbon concentration and bulk density were measured in the samples and SOCS were...

Climate is a complex system which is changing mainly due to the increase of greenhouse gases. Because of the importance of climate change and the effects it can have on water resources, in recent years, this topic has been taken into consideration for different basins on Earth. The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of climate change and forecasting meteorological variables o...

Geomorphic parameters are very helpful as they can quickly explain the concerned area, which is going through a tectonic adjustment. For this purpose, four indices were applied to examine active tectonics in Quetta-Ziarat region. These include: sub-basins asymmetry (Af), transverse topography (T-Factor), hypsometric integral (HI) and stream-length gradient (SL). The calculation of three denoted...

The catchment, or catchment area, is the area associated with a segment of a drainage network. Surface runoff in a catchment flows into the associated network segment. Catchment area is commonly used for estimating watershed parameters, such as upstream drainage area, flood frequency, or surface-water flow. Hydrologic analyses require relatively accurate catchment area estimates to furnish subs...

the management of sedimentation problems in rivers and reservoirs depend greatly on the sediment yield from the catchment land surface. in this research the effects of biological measures and ranges enclose on suspended load in two sub-catchments of kakhk experimentalwatershed in gonabad has been studied. this catchment contains both control and experimental sub-catchments. these sub-catchments...
