As special depositional environments which are adjacent to the seas, deltas have provided a field for human habitat establishment. Geomorphic features of deltas are in constant transformation due to their dynamic features. Constructing dams on rivers can intensify these changes and cause either negative or positive consequences. Minab delta in Hormozgan Province of Iran is a round or crescent-s...

a one year faunistic study was carried out in minab area, starting january 1982, to investigate the possible hazards of the newly constructed minab dam in increasing the mosquito transmitted diseases. in view of this, a baseline data was gathered by sampling 4th instar mosquito larvae from different kinds of breeding sites, present in minab area as well as the 4 districts surrounding it. in thi...

Standardized Runoff Index (SRI), as one of the well-known hydrological drought indices, may contain uncertainties caused by employment distribution function, time scale, and record length statistical data. In this study, uncertainty in SRI estimation monthly discharge data 30- 49-year lengths from Minab Dam watershed, south Iran, was investigated. Four probability functions (Gamma, Weibull, Log...

Heavy metals have the properties of biological accumulation, toxicity and environmental stability, hence consumption of drinking water containing heavy metals can jeopardize human health. One of these heavy metals is cadmium that its long-term exposure causes kidney diseases, osteoporosis, cancer and cardiovascular disease. In this cross-sectional study which was conducted in Minab, 100 samples...
