This study aims to monitor land use and land cover changes, model and predict their status in the next 15 years in Jagin plain, Jask coastal desert. In this study, Landsat satellite images of 1987, 2003 and 2018 were used to detect changes. After applying geometric and atmospheric corrections on the images, land use maps of each year at 11 land use /land cover classes including farmlands, aquaculture, erg, halophyte, mangrove, habitable zones, nebka, vegetation affected by water flow vegetation (rangeland), bare lands, were prepared using hybrid classification method. The Markov chain forecasting model was used to validate the model in the first stage, and was used in the second stage to predict land cover/land change in 2033. -
A Brief Overview on Karabakh History from Past to Today
Volume: 8 Issue: 2 Year: 2011 A Brief Overview on Karabakh History from Past to Today Ercan Karakoç Abstract After initiation of the glasnost (openness) and perestroika (restructuring) policies in the USSR by Mikhail Gorbachev, the Soviet Union started to crumble, and old, forgotten, suppressed problems especially regarding territorial claims between Azerbaijanis and Armenians reemerged. Although Mountainous (Nagorno) Karabakh is officially part of Azerbaijan Republic, after fierce and bloody clashes between Armenians and Azerbaijanis, the entire Nagorno Karabakh region and seven additional surrounding districts of Lachin, Kelbajar, Agdam, Jabrail, Fizuli, Khubadly and Zengilan, it means over 20 per cent of Azerbaijan, were occupied by Armenians, and because of serious war situations, many Azerbaijanis living in these areas had to migrate from their homeland to Azerbaijan and they have been living under miserable conditions since the early 1990s.

Despite efforts to prevent the spread of the disease, cases continue worldwide. In Iran, the disease usually occurs in children under 10 years. In the absence of timely diagnosis and treatment, the mortality rate is 95–100%.

Factors Influencing the Acceptance and Application of Solar Technology in Sport Places in Line with Technology Promulgation (Case Study: Sport Places in Ardabil)
J Biochem Tech (2020) Special Issue (1): 25-34 ISSN: 0974-2328 Factors Influencing the Acceptance and Application of Solar Technology in Sport Places in Line with Technology Promulgation (Case Study: Sport Places in Ardabil) Maryam Jami Odolu, Muhammad Hassan Yazdani* Received: 12 August 2019 / Received in revised form: 07 December 2019, Accepted: 15 December 2019, Published online: 25 January 2020 © Biochemical Technology Society 2014-2020 © Sevas Educational Society 2008 Abstract Technology promulgation is one of the most important objectives of the innovation system, particularly in the developing countries and it is also viewed as a difficult issue in the face of the policy-makers. Renewable energy is one of the sectors seriously faced with the issue of technology promulgation. During the recent years, supporting the expansion of renewable energies has drawn a lot of attention in Iran; however, the people are still not so willing in using such energies. Thus, the present study aims at the role of factors influencing the acceptance and application of solar energy in the sport places in line with technology promulgation for the case study of the sport places in the city of Ardabil. The data have been collected based on a field method and the instrument used for doing so is a researcher- constructed questionnaire the validity of which was confirmed by the experts and professors and its reliability was equal to 0.89 based on Cronbach’s alpha test hence optimum for social studies. The study sampling method was purposive. Specialists and -

It is well-documented that standard amounts of fluoride in drinking- water can decrease the rate of dental caries. This study was conducted with the aim of measuring fluoride concentration of drinking-water supplies and urban distribution system in Qom, Iran. Materials and Methods: Results were subsequently compared against national and international standards. All sources of drinking-water of rural and urban areas were examined. To measure fluoride, the standard SPADNS method and a DR/4000s spectrophotometer were used . Results: Results showed that the mean of fluoride concentration in rural areas, mainly supplied with groundwater sources, was 0.41 mg/L, that of the urban distribution system 0.82 mg/L, that of Ali-Abad station 0.11 mg/L, and that of the private water desalination system 0.24 mg/L. -

Talish and the Talishis (The State of Research) Garnik
TALISH AND THE TALISHIS (THE STATE OF RESEARCH) GARNIK ASATRIAN, HABIB BORJIAN YerevanState University Introduction The land of Talish (T alis, Tales, Talysh, Tolysh) is located in the south-west of the Caspian Sea, and generally stretches from south-east to north for more than 150 km., consisting of the Talish range, sup- plemented by a narrow coastal strip with a fertile soil and high rainfall, with dozens of narrow valleys, discharging into the Caspian or into the Enzeli lagoon. This terrain shapes the historical habitat of Talishis who have lived a nomadic life, moving along the mountainous streams. Two factors, the terrain and the language set apart Talish from its neighbours. The densely vegetated mountainous Talish con- trasts the lowlands of Gilan in the east and the dry steppe lands of Mughan in Azarbaijan (Aturpatakan) in the west. The northern Talish in the current Azerbaijan Republic includes the regions of Lenkoran (Pers. Lankoran), Astara (Pers. Astara), Lerik, Masally, and Yardymly. Linguistically, the Talishis speak a North Western Iranian dialect, yet different from Gilaki, which belongs to the same group. Formerly, the whole territory inhabited by Talishis was part of the Iranian Empire. In 1813, Russia annexed its greater part in the north, which since has successively been ruled by the Imperial Russia, the Soviet Union, and since 1991 by the former Soviet Republic of Azerbaijan. The southern half of Talish, south of the Astara river, occupies the eastern part of the Persian province of Gilan. As little is known about the Talishis in pre-modern times, it is diffi- cult to establish the origins of the people (cf. -

The spatiotemporal changes of LAI were assessed throughout Ardabil Province—a host of relevant plant communities within the critical ecoregion of a semi- arid climate. In a comparative study, novel data from Google Earth Engine (GEE) was tested against traditional ENVI measures to provide LAI estimations. Moreover, it is of important practical significance for institutional networks to quantitatively and accurately estimate LAI, at large areas in a short time, and using appropriate baseline vegetation indices. Therefore, LAI was characterized for ecoregions of Ardabil Province using remote sensing indices extracted from Landsat 8 Operational Land Imager (OLI), including the Enhanced Vegetation Index calculated in GEE (EVIG) and ENVI5.3 Citation: Andalibi, L.; Ghorbani, A.; software (EVIE), as well as the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index estimated in ENVI5.3 software Moameri, M.; Hazbavi, Z.; Nothdurft, (NDVIE). -
