Beitr. Notes on Habitat and Distribution of Montane Birds in Southern Iran by M. DESFAYES, Washington, and J. C. PRAZ, Sempach This study was carried out in May and June 1975 to fill a gap in our knowledge of the breeding birds, their distribution and ecology, in the mountains of southern Iran. In these two months, most species occupy their breeding territories. Records from April or July are not always reliable as an indication of breeding, even if the bird is observed singing. While the avifauna of the northern parts of the country is relatively well-known, that of the southern highlands (above 2,000 meters) is poorly known. Blanford (1876) collected at Rayen (Rayun) 2100 m, and Hanaka, 2400 m, south-east of Kerman, just east of the Kuh-e Hazar, from 30 April to 2 May, and also at Khan-e Sorkh Pass 2550 m, 115 km south-west of Kerman on 23 May. Species collected in these areas by Blanford are: Columba palum- bus, Cuculus canorus, Melanocorypha bimaculata, Motacilla alba, Lanius collurio, Oenanthe picata, Oe. lugens, Oe. xanthoprymna, Montícola saxa- tilis, Sylvia curruca, Serinus pusillus, Acanthis cannabina, Emberiza bucha- nani, and E.

  • CHAPTER 3 HYDROLOGICAL MODELING 3.1 Introduction 3.2
    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.

Key words: Checklist, mite, habitat, distribution, Iran. Introduction Apparently the first checklist about mites of Iran was that of Farahbakhsh in 1961. Subsequently the following lists were published: “The 20 years researches of Acarology in Iran, List of agricultural pests and their natural enemies in Iran, A catalog of mites and ticks (Acari) of Iran and Injurious mites of agricultural crops in Iran” are four main works (Sepasgosarian 1977; Modarres Awal 1997; Kamali et al. 2001; Khanjani & Haddad Irani-Nejad 2006).

    “There are two kinds of Bahá’ís, one might say: those whose religion is Bahá’í, and those who live for the Faith. Needless to say, if we can belong to the latter category, If we can be in the vanguard of heroes, martyrs and saints, it is more praiseworthy in the sight of God.” -Directives of the Guardian, 87. This book is dedicated to the memory of Molly King, program director, and James Kelly, administrator of Bosch Bahá’í School Also to the memory of Marzieh Nabil Gail, whose early manuscript of John Bosch’s life is the foundational source for this biography. In its 2018 Ridvan Message, the Universal House of Justice announced special gatherings in Haifa to commemorate the following: November 2021: the 100th anniversary of the Ascension of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá January 2022: the 100th anniversary of the public reading of the Master’s Will ********* John Bosch was present at both events in November 1921 and January 1922. “No doubt, when the Cause spreads more throughout Switzerland, this fatherland of his will grow to be proud of this heroic and noble soul it produced, even though the best days of his life were spent in America.” -From a letter written on behalf of the Guardian to Louise Bosch Chapter 1: On a Train “In 1903, October, on the train from San Francisco to Cloverdale, a Mrs. Beckwith had a book with her called Abbas Effendi After reading a few pages I asked her where I could obtain one as I felt strongly that I should read the whole book.

In Search of a new World Ethic, London 1993. The German text of this paper (Baha-’u’lla-hs Einheitsparadigma — Grundlage eines Ethos ohne falsche Vereinnahmung?) has meanwhile been published: Johannes Lähnemann (ed.), ‘Das Projekt Weltethos’ in der Erziehung, Hamburg 1995. The author is most grateful to both translators for the great care taken in undertaking this time-consuming and difficult task. I. The Baha-’i- Faith is a religion founded in modern times which has been relatively little researched by scholars working in the field of comparative religion. There- fore, even at the risk of carrying coals to Newcastle, some basic information first. The Faith, founded in the 19th century in Iran, is an independent prophetic relig- ion in the tradition of Near Eastern revealed religions, bearing the archetypal fea- tures we know from religious history: a herald figure who prepared the way, the Ba-b, and the prophetic central figure whose advent he announced, the founder of the Baha-’i- Faith: Baha-’u’lla-h.2 The God whom he proclaims is “the God of Abra- ham, Isaac and Jacob”.3 Having its roots in the messianic promises of Islam,4 this religion came into being in the year 1260 A.
