This disease exists in three forms: cutaneous (rural, urban), visceral, and mucocutaneous. In the rural type, some rodents play the role of a reservoir. In our country, many people are infected with this disease every year. Cutaneous Leishmaniasis is now common in some parts of East Azerbaijan province. Considering that no comprehensive study on the general condition of cutaneous Leishmaniasis reservoirs in this province has been done so far, this research was very necessary. This study was conducted to investigate the fauna, distribution, and frequency of rodents in East Azerbaijan province from 2018 to 2019. Methods: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study. Cluster sampling was performed on rodents. Rodents were caught each week by 30 live traps from different parts of East Azerbaijan province and were determined in the laboratory after examining their morphological characteristics.

This village exemplifies manmade cliff dwellings which are still inhabited. The troglodyte homes, excavated inside volcanic rocks and tuffs similar to dwellings in the Turkish region of Cappadocia, are locally called "Karaan". Karaans were cut into the Lahars (volcanic mudflow or debris flow) of Mount Sahand. The cone form of the houses is the result of lahar flow consisting of porous round and angular pumice together with other volcanic particles that were positioned in a grey acidic matrix. After the eruption of Sahand these materials were naturally moved and formed the rocks of Kandovan. Around the village the thickness of this formation exceeds 100 m and with time due to water erosion the cone shaped cliffs were formed. At the 2006 census, the village population was 601, in 168 families this village also famous for mineral spring water useful for urinary stones, every day 100 s of peoples going to drink it and take in bulk for their use.

  • Long-Period Ground Motion Simulation for NTF Fault Scenario
    Long-period Ground Motion Simulation for NTF Fault NearScenario-source in Tabriz energy City released of 2003 Bam earthquake using slip-weakening law Paper Title Line 1 Mohammad Reza Ghayamghamian International institute of earthquake engineering and seismology, Tehran, Iran Afrooz Rajool Islamic Azad University, Tehran, Iran SUMMARY: Tabriz, one of the metropolises of Iran, is a megacity situated at the northwest of the Iran with more than 1.5 million inhabitants. North Tabriz Fault (NTF) is a major seismogenic fault in NW of Iran that crossed north of Tabriz city and directly threaten metropolitan area of Tabriz. The NTF would have been the source of several major historical earthquakes in the past. Therefore, it is na important task to identify the characteristics of long-period strong ground motions for seismic hazard mitigation plan and design of long structures. The kinematic model with non-uniform slip distribution on the fault plane is employed to simulate velocity waveforms at the sites. To this end, the source parameters for the worst rupture scenario of NTF are defined. Then, the long-period velocity motions for this rupture scenario are simulated at 300 points in a grid of 1 km × 1 km covering whole Tabriz region. The simulated motions clearly show near-fault directivity pulse with different peaks and periods depending on the site location to the fault. The peak velocity (PGV) is found to be in the range of 100 to 255 cm/sec. Furthermore, the response spectra for simulated motions are also calculated, which their peak values vary in the range of 200-330 cm/sec for velocity.

  • A Case Study of Tabriz's Historical Gardens
    International Journal of Architectural Research Ahad Nejad Ebrahimi, Farnaz Nazarzadeh,and Elnaz Nazarzadeh PERSIAN GARDENS IN COLD AND DRY CLIMATE: A CASE STUDY OF TABRIZ’S HISTORICAL GARDENS Ahad Nejad Ebrahimi, Farnaz Nazarzadeh, and Elnaz Nazarzadeh Tabriz Islamic Art University, Tabriz, Iran *Corresponding Author’s email address: [email protected] Abstract Throughout history, gardens and garden designing has been in the attention of Persian architects who had special expertise in the construction of gardens. The appearance of Islam and allegories of paradise taken from that in Koran and Saints’ sayings gave spirituality to garden construction. Climate conditions have also had an important role in this respect but little research has been done about it and most of the investigations have referred to spiritual aspects and forms of garden. The cold and dry climate that has enveloped parts of West and North West of Iran has many gardens with different forms and functions, which have not been paid much attention to by studies done so far. The aim of this paper is to identify the features and specifications of cold and dry climate gardens with an emphasis on Tabriz’s Gardens. Due to its natural and strategic situation, Tabriz has always been in the attention of governments throughout history; travellers and tourists have mentioned Tabriz as a city that has beautiful gardens. But, the earthquakes and wars have left no remains of those beautiful gardens. This investigation, by a comparative study of the climates in Iran and the effect of those climates on the formation of gardens and garden design, tries to identify the features and characteristics of gardens in cold and dry climate.
