Exactly 20 years ago Iran joined IBO family and since then has been an active member of all past competitions. In the last year, our dreams came true and we were the host of 29th International Bi- ology Olympiad. Saman Hosseinkhani Chairman of IBO2018 For 2 years, before IBO 2018, my colleagues in the scientific and exec- utive committees worked hard to prepare all required materials and equipment for practical tasks and design of theoretical questions. Three major Iranian universities including Tarbiat Modares University, University of Tehran and Shahid Beheshti University had major scien- tific contributions. Although students were here for competition there is one thing be- yond the competition, friendship. I’m sure our students started strong friendships in order to make the future scientific collaborative network. I have to thank more than 200 scientific committee members, scien- tific assistants and organizers who have worked hard, day and night, in order to bring the dream of IBO 2018 into life.

  • Irreverent Persia
    Irreverent Persia IRANIAN IRANIAN SERIES SERIES Poetry expressing criticism of social, political and cultural life is a vital integral part of IRREVERENT PERSIA Persian literary history. Its principal genres – invective, satire and burlesque – have been INVECTIVE, SATIRICAL AND BURLESQUE POETRY very popular with authors in every age. Despite the rich uninterrupted tradition, such texts FROM THE ORIGINS TO THE TIMURID PERIOD have been little studied and rarely translated. Their irreverent tones range from subtle (10TH TO 15TH CENTURIES) irony to crude direct insults, at times involving the use of outrageous and obscene terms. This anthology includes both major and minor poets from the origins of Persian poetry RICCARDO ZIPOLI (10th century) up to the age of Jâmi (15th century), traditionally considered the last great classical Persian poet. In addition to their historical and linguistic interest, many of these poems deserve to be read for their technical and aesthetic accomplishments, setting them among the masterpieces of Persian literature. Riccardo Zipoli is professor of Persian Language and Literature at Ca’ Foscari University, Venice, where he also teaches Conceiving and Producing Photography. The western cliché about Persian poetry is that it deals with roses, nightingales, wine, hyperbolic love-longing, an awareness of the transience of our existence, and a delicate appreciation of life’s fleeting pleasures. And so a great deal of it does. But there is another side to Persian verse, one that is satirical, sardonic, often obscene, one that delights in ad hominem invective and no-holds barred diatribes. Perhaps surprisingly enough for the uninitiated reader it is frequently the same poets who write both kinds of verse.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Repositorio Universidad de Zaragoza Un paseo por la “torre de la Libertad” de Teherán A diferencia de otras capitales mundiales como París, Roma, New York..., Teherán (Irán) es mucho menos conocida. Es por este motivo que al hablar del Monumento a la Libertad o Monumento Shahyad, en honor al Sah (el emperador de Irán), que tras la revolución iraní de 1979 cambió de nombre a "Torre Azadi" (en idioma persa, significa Libertad), es uno de los monumentos contemporáneos más desconocidos a nivel mundial, aunque esta construcción está situada en una de las entradas a la capital iraní, por lo que su silueta y los 45 metros de altura la hacen inconfundible, siendo visible desde muchas zonas de la urbe, en especial de noche cuando está completamente iluminada [Fig.1].1 Fig. 1.- Vista de la Torre Azadi Fig. 2.- Retrato Col. Christian Triebert Col. Hossein Amanat. El gobierno iraní, para conmemorar el 2.500 aniversario del Imperio Persa, convocó un concurso que ganó con tan sólo 24 años de edad, el joven arquitecto Iraní-canadiense graduado por la Universidad de Teheran, Hossein Amanat en 1966 que formó parte de la revolución cultural iraní de 1979 y durante la que tuvo que huír del país por su creencia religiosa Bahá'í, trasladándose a Canadá en 1980. Asimismo este primer proyecto arquitectónico le dió la oportunidad de crear algunos de los proyectos más distintivos de su país, ya que siempre tuvo como referencia la arquitectura tradicional persa.

    The Study on Flood and Debris Flow Supporting Report I (Master Plan) Paper IV in the Caspian Coastal Area Meteo-Hydrology focusing on the Flood-hit Region in Golestan Province CHAPTER 3 HYDROLOGICAL MODELING 3.1 Introduction An integrated and distributed MIKE SHE hydrological model is used to evaluate rainfall-runoff process in the Madarsoo River basin. The model is able to analyze impacts of watershed management practices, land use, soil types, topographic features, flow regulation structures, etc. over the basin on river flows. For this, MIKE SHE model was coupled with MIKE 11 river modeling system to simulate flows in the river system. Inflows and hydrodynamic processes in rivers are taken into consideration for model development. The model computes river flows taking account of overland flow, interflow and base-flow. An integrated and distributed hydrological model MIKE SHE was set up for the Madarsoo River basin for the following reasons: (1) To generate probable or design discharges precisely in the river system to assist on flood control master plan development, (2) To analyze the impacts of watershed management practices and biological measures of flood mitigation by quantifying river flows under these circumstances, and (3) To analyze the impact of incorporation of flood regulation structures like dam in the river system to reduce peak flows. 3.2 MIKE SHE MIKE SHE is an integrated hydrological model because all components of hydrological cycle (precipitation, evapotranspiration, surface flow, infiltration, groundwater flow, etc.) are incorporated into the model. Similarly, and it is also a distributed model because the model can handle spatial and temporal distributions of parameters.
