in this research, the statistics of daily temperature of meteorology stations for estimating the probable occurrence of the first and last frost temperature, the phonological thresholds of saffron and its flowering and irrigation dates were explored. furthermore, by applying different methods, the probabilities of the attained dates in different probability levels were fit in smada software. th...

thegenus achillea is one of the most important medicinal plants in the asteraceae family. nineteen species of this genus have been described in the flora iranica, of which achillea aucheri boiss is an endemic species to iran. given the effect of geographic location on the quality and yield of essential oil, we performed an investigation to determine oil contents of a. aucheri growing at differe...

introduction climate affects, more than any other factors, the type and form of human life, so that many cities that have made or developed regardless of climatic information are suffering from weather-related problems such as air pollution, water supply and flooding etc. by using the meteorological information in designing new cities as well as developing old cities can reduce the mentioned pr...

As the trend of urban climate experimentation continues, many accounts now seek to identify how it can be harnessed toward responses sufficient scale and magnitude for crises at hand. The imperative is move beyond experimentation. Yet some authors suggest that this may not so straightforward for, they argue, we increasingly inhabit a condition permanent Taking its cue from premise, article expl...

To evaluate the effect of climate change on peanut production in Northern Iran on the basis of 2oC rise in temperature, a study was conducted using the SSM-Peanut. The simulation was done based on the long-term data obtained from synoptic stations in Guilan including Anzali, Astara, Kiashahr (Astaneh Ashrafieh), Lahijan, Rasht (Agriculture station), Rasht (Airport station), Roudsar and Talesh. ...

     Climatic conditions have a major influence in attracting tourists to a city in different months. In this study, the potential of Isfahan and Rasht as arid and humid cities, respectively, was investigated in terms of attracting tourists during a year. For this purpose, the Holiday Climate Index (HCI), which has been designed based on daily climate information, was used. The results showed t...

The observed recent freshening trend in the deep North Atlantic and the Labrador Sea is investigated in three forced ensembles and a long control simulations using the HadCM3 coupled ocean–atmosphere–sea-ice climate model. The 40 yr freshening trend during the late half of the 20th century is captured in the all forcings ensemble that applies all major external (natural and anthropogenic) forci...

weather condition is one of the much effective factors in the principle of architecture and urbanization. so in this research long-term trend of effective climate elements in architecture of darab city including mean of minimum temperature, temperature mean, mean of maximum temperature, minimum relative humidity, maximum relative humidity, relative humidity mean, wind speed and sun hours in mon...

Multistability is a ubiquitous feature in systems of geophysical relevance and provides key challenges for our ability to predict a system’s response to perturbations. Near critical transitions small causes can lead to large effects and—for all practical purposes—irreversible changes in the properties of the system. As is well known, the Earth climate is multistable: present astronomical and as...
