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.

  • Marine Role of Jask for Islamic Republic of Iran Davod Kiany
    World Journal of Environmental Biosciences All Rights Reserved WJES © 2014 Available Online at: www.environmentaljournals.org Volume 6, Supplementary: 66-71 ISSN 2277- 8047 Marine role of Jask for Islamic Republic of Iran Davod Kiany Ph.D , Assistant Professor in Institute for International Energy Studies, Ministry of Petroleum, Iran ABSTRACT There are sea and coasts in some parts of Iran. Iran is considered as coastal and aquatic land. These coasts provide military, security and economic opportunities, but, unfortunately, Iran has not been able to use these coasts very well; so that, the most important parts of these coasts and shores have not already been used. In Iran, the history of sea and navigation and using sea capacities dates back to the past. Presently, straits, channels, ports and marine lands play a key role in economy and security of the world. Jask, located in the coasts of Oman, is considered as one of the key marine points for Islamic Republic of Iran. Also, it is an important and strategic region .although this important port has been ignored due to different reasons for several years, it can be used as an important economical and multi -purpose port, even in terms of energy. Jask is a key port, having special position in the coast of Oman and Indian Ocean. In stating problem, Mahan's theory of sea power have been used; according to this, sea is a base of national power. In the present study, this port has been scientifically analyzed based on the theories on sea. Also, research methodology is analytical. Keywords: Jask, Marine Power, Iran Corresponding author: Davod Kiany INTRODUCTION 1- History of Sea and Navigation Iranian people are considered as the oldest navigators in the of sea and navigation is very important for Iranian people.

Ahmadib a Faculty of Natural Resources, University of Tehran, Karaj, Iran b Islamic Azad University, Science and Research Branch, Tehran, Iran Received: 16 April 2011; Received in revised form: 26 April 2011; Accepted: 15 May 2011 Abstract Wind regime data from the Jask meteorological station from a 20-year statistical period (1985-2005) was analyzed using the Fryberger method to investigate sand drift potential (DP) in this area. The resultant drift potential and directional variability of wind were calculated and illustrated. Average annual sand DP was estimated to be 460 vector units (VU), and the sand flux is 51 m3/m.year. Therefore, in view of the wind’s erosive power (calculated by software using the Lettau-Lettau equation) and according to Fryberger’s classification (1979), this area is categorized as a high energy wind environment. Calculating DPt in different seasons showed that the strongest winds blow in summer and winter (158.8 and 152.4 VU), and autumn had the lowest DP. In summer, the wind blows in a south- southeast pattern which differs from that of other seasons. Autumn also has the highest frequency of winds swifter than threshold velocity. The unidirectional index (RDP/DPt) value is 0.08 for this region, which causes the formation of transverse dunes (barkhanoid) from south-southeast to north-northwest. Keywords: Wide regime; Sand drifts potential; Fryberger method 1. Introduction 2. Material and Methods Much research has addressed the processes of Jask is the capital city of Jask County, wind regimes.

  • The Iranian Revolution at 30
    Viewpoints Special Edition The Iranian Revolution at 30 The Middle East Institute Washington, DC Middle East Institute The mission of the Middle East Institute is to promote knowledge of the Middle East in Amer- ica and strengthen understanding of the United States by the people and governments of the region. For more than 60 years, MEI has dealt with the momentous events in the Middle East — from the birth of the state of Israel to the invasion of Iraq. Today, MEI is a foremost authority on contemporary Middle East issues. It pro- vides a vital forum for honest and open debate that attracts politicians, scholars, government officials, and policy experts from the US, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. MEI enjoys wide access to political and business leaders in countries throughout the region. Along with information exchanges, facilities for research, objective analysis, and thoughtful commentary, MEI’s programs and publications help counter simplistic notions about the Middle East and America. We are at the forefront of private sector public diplomacy. Viewpoints are another MEI service to audiences interested in learning more about the complexities of issues affecting the Middle East and US rela- tions with the region.
