Since the work of J.J. Heckel (1846-1849), the number of valid species has increased significantly and the systematic status of many of the species has changed, and reorganization and updating of the published information has become essential. Here we take the opportunity to provide a new and updated checklist of freshwater fishes of Iran based on literature and taxon occurrence data obtained from natural history and new fish collections. This article lists 288 species in 107 genera, 28 families, 22 orders and 3 classes reported from different Iranian basins. However, presence of 23 reported species in Iranian waters needs confirmation by specimens.

Safavi1 & Samuel Sandoval-Solis2 & Mahmood Fooladi1 Received: 28 July 2020 /Accepted: 6 December 2020/ # The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V. part of Springer Nature 2021 Abstract Reliability, resilience, and vulnerability (RRV) have been widely used as the performance criteria of a water supplyO system in the studies conducted over the last three decades. This study attempts to modify thenly traditional for method reading commonly applied to estimate these criteria using fuzzyDo logic therebyn the performance criteria of the points with the threshold and intermediate values are more accurately estimated. Traditional methods (RRV-Fixed) of estimating these criteria are based on the fixed threshold values to represent the functionality of a water supply system, using a binary system to identify the periods a system fails to supply the waterot demands. dowload The employment of this binary system may be taken into account as a weakness of the evaluating system, especially when water portion met is close to the threshold values. The present study develops a new method named RRV-Fuzzy, to ameliorate the weaknesses of the traditional RRV-Fixed estimating system.The method is designated as “Fuzzy Performance Criteria” built upon the traditional RRV formulae with improvements made to their structures using fuzzy membership functions. The efficiency of the proposed method is verified via implemen- tation on two case studies including a theoretical and a real-world water basin.

Namiranian Center of Excellence for Fundamental Studies in Structural Engineering, School of Civil Engineering, Iran University of Science & Technology, Tehran, IRAN ABSTRACT The main objective of this paper is to use ant optimized neural networks to generate artificial earthquake records. In this regard, training accelerograms selected according to the site geology of recorder station and Wavelet Packet Transform (WPT) used to decompose these records. Then Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) optimized with Ant Colony Optimization and resilient Backpropagation algorithm and learn to relate the dimension reduced response spectrum of records to their wavelet packet coefficients. Trained ANNs are capable to produce wavelet packet coefficients for a specified spectrum, so by using inverse WPT artificial accelerograms obtained. By using these tools, the learning time of ANNs reduced salient and generated accelerograms had more spectrum-compatibility and save their essence as earthquake accelerograms.

    Necessity of Risk Management of Various Industry-Associated Pollutants (Case Study of Gavkhoni Wetland Ecosystem)

    World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology International Journal of Computer and Systems Engineering Vol:5, No:4, 2011 Necessity of Risk Management of Various Industry-Associated Pollutants (Case Study of Gavkhoni Wetland Ecosystem) Hekmatpanah, M. Abstract—Since the beginning of human history, human Majnunian et al [1] state that Gavkhoni wetland with its activities have caused many changes in the environment. Today, a living species and even the human communities living particular attention should be paid to gaining knowledge about water adjacent to it form an integrated system whose life and quality of wetlands which are pristine natural environments rich in survival is dependent on the river. Clark [2] argues that heavy genetic reserves. If qualitative conditions of industrial areas (in terms of both physicochemical and biological conditions) are not addressed metals are one of the most important pollutants that are either properly, they could cause disruption in natural ecosystems, naturally present in the water or get into the water through especially in rivers. With regards to the quality of water resources, municipal, industrial and agricultural discharges. Since the determination of pollutant sources plays a pivotal role in engineering flow of water slows down in the wetland, heavy metals projects as well as designing water quality control systems. Thus, accumulate in soil, plants and aquatic species, thus finding using different methods such as flow duration curves, discharge- their way into human food chain. This process ultimately pollution load model and frequency analysis by HYFA software package, risk of various industrial pollutants in international and endangers both human health and the environment and, in the ecologically important Gavkhoni wetland is analyzed.

Les tafoni représentés se développent en plusieurs endroits dans différents matériaux rocheux: du basalte dans le désert de Lut, un champ volcanique du Plateau de Gandom Beryan, de l’andésite dans la grotte d’Ayub près de la ville de Dehaj, du tuf volcanique dans le village de Marj et du grès près de la ville de Hojedk. Mots-clés: Iran, Province de Kerman, Formation de Tafoni, Différents matériaux rocheux Abstract: Tafoni formation in the Kerman province of Iran is described for the first time in this paper illustrated by a pictures gallery. Tafoni develop in lots of areas in different rock types such as: basalt in the Lut desert, volcanic field of the Gandom Beryan Plateau , andesite in the Ayub cave near the town of Dehaj , tuff near the village of Marj and sandstone near the town of Hojedk Keywords: Iran, Kerman province, Tafoni formation, Various rock types INTRODUCTION Because of thermal changes, mineral decomposition, water and wind action, and salt weathering, natural cavities called Tafoni develop in various (granular) rock types. These cavities are of different forms: spherical, ellipsoidal, kidney-shaped, pan to bowl shaped… The origin of the word tafoni is uncertain; maybe it is derived from the Corsican dialect “tafone” and is synonymous with window (KLAER 1956).

Moghadam Abstract In this paper I examine the way modalities of mobility and settlement contribute to the socio- economic stratification of the Iranian community in Dubai, while simultaneously reflecting its segmented nature, complex internal dynamics, and relationship to the environment in which it is formed. I will analyze Iranian migrants’ representations and their cultural initiatives to help elucidate the socio-economic hierarchies that result from differentiated access to distinct social spaces as well as the agency that migrants have over these hierarchies. In doing so, I examine how social categories constructed in the contexts of departure and arrival contribute to shaping migratory trajectories.

The aim of the GWES project is 1/ to consider extreme events (natural and man-induced) that could adversely influence human health and life, 2/ to support countries repeatedly affected by such events in the setting up of emergency plans and mitigation schemes to secure drinking water supply, and 3/ to identify in advance potential safe groundwater resources which could temporarily replace damaged water supply systems. The results of this project will allow countries to minimize the dependence of threatened population on vulnerable drinking water supplies. Groundwater bodies are naturally less vulnerable and more resistant than surface waters to external impact. Deep aquifers naturally protected from the earth surface by geological environ- ment should be therefore, identified and evaluated.

There were no high-rise buildings visible, Iand the city stretched out flat and low. I couldn’t wait until day broke to see and explore the city, located about 630 kilometers southeast of Tehran. Yazd was the center of Zoroastrianism when the Sasanian Empire (224 to 651 C.E.) ruled Persia, and takes its name from Yazdegerd I, one of the rulers of the dynasty, who reigned from 399 to 421. Zoroastrianism is an ancient mono- theistic religion founded more than 3,500 years ago by Zoroaster (or Zarathustra), and was the predominant faith during the Sasanian era. I wanted to know more about it, so the next morning I hired a taxi to take me to the Towers of Silence, among the last remnants of that time. Located in the middle of the country and surrounded by deserts — Dasht-e- Kavir to the north and Dasht-e-Lut to the The Towers of Silence, top, in the desert outside Yazd served as funerary structures for the south — Yazd is the driest city in Iran.
