Chamran University, Ahwaz, Iran The Gotvand reservoir dam is located at SW of Iran where the Karun River orients from the Zagros Mountains. The nominal volume is 5,500 million cubic meters. It is a rock-fills dam with clay core. The height of crown is about 180 m with 130 m normal water depth. Depth from bottom (0-30 m), the water layer’s electrical conductivity (EC) will be as 150,000 to 85,000 mµ/cm. Also the EC will decrease from depth (85-30 m) corresponding the water layer’s EC between 85,000 to 20,000 µm/cm. Finally, at depth (30-0.0 m) the EC is controlled with values (15,000-1,000 µm/cm). The salty domes will produce unexpected salty sediments into reservoirs. Consulting engineering said that more than 8,000,000 tons of pure salt sediments were interned into the Gotvand Lake reservoir from 2011 through 2015. If this regime of salty material continues, downstream agricultural lands will completely disturb and disuses.

  • Agroclimatic Zones Map of Iran Explanatory Notes
    AGROCLIMATIC ZONES MAP OF IRAN EXPLANATORY NOTES E. De Pauw1, A. Ghaffari2, V. Ghasemi3 1 Agroclimatologist/ Research Project Manager, International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA), Aleppo Syria 2 Director-General, Drylands Agricultural Research Institute (DARI), Maragheh, Iran 3 Head of GIS/RS Department, Soil and Water Research Institute (SWRI), Tehran, Iran INTRODUCTION The agroclimatic zones map of Iran has been produced to as one of the outputs of the joint DARI-ICARDA project “Agroecological Zoning of Iran”. The objective of this project is to develop an agroecological zones framework for targeting germplasm to specific environments, formulating land use and land management recommendations, and assisting development planning. In view of the very diverse climates in this part of Iran, an agroclimatic zones map is of vital importance to achieve this objective. METHODOLOGY Spatial interpolation A database was established of point climatic data covering monthly averages of precipitation and temperature for the main stations in Iran, covering the period 1973-1998 (Appendix 1, Tables 2-3). These quality-controlled data were obtained from the Organization of Meteorology, based in Tehran. From Iran 126 stations were accepted with a precipitation record length of at least 20 years, and 590 stations with a temperature record length of at least 5 years. The database also included some precipitation and temperature data from neighboring countries, leading to a total database of 244 precipitation stations and 627 temperature stations. The ‘thin-plate smoothing spline’ method of Hutchinson (1995), as implemented in the ANUSPLIN software (Hutchinson, 2000), was used to convert this point database into ‘climate surfaces’.

  • Characteristics of Direct Human Impacts on the Rivers Karun and Dez in Lowland South-West Iran and Their Interactions with Earth Surface Movements
    © 2016, Elsevier. Licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial- NoDerivatives 4.0 International http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ Characteristics of direct human impacts on the rivers Karun and Dez in lowland south-west Iran and their interactions with earth surface movements Kevin P. Woodbridge, Daniel R. Parsons, Vanessa M. A. Heyvaert, Jan Walstra, Lynne E. Frostick Abstract Two of the primary external factors influencing the variability of major river systems, over river reach scales, are human activities and tectonics. Based on the rivers Karun and Dez in south-west Iran, this paper presents an analysis of the geomorphological responses of these major rivers to ancient human modifications and tectonics. Direct human modifications can be distinguished by both modern constructions and ancient remnants of former constructions that can leave a subtle legacy in a suite of river characteristics. For example, the ruins of major dams are characterised by a legacy of channel widening to 100's up to c. 1000 m within upstream zones that can stretch to channel distances of many kilometres upstream of former dam sites, whilst the legacy of major, ancient, anthropogenic river channel straightening can also be distinguished by very low channel sinuosities over long lengths of the river course. Tectonic movements in the region are mainly associated with young and emerging folds with NW–SE and N–S trends and with a long structural lineament oriented E–W. These earth surface movements can be shown to interact with both modern and ancient human impacts over similar timescales, with the types of modification and earth surface motion being distinguishable.

  • Monthly-July-2021
    women.ncr-iran.org @womenncri @womenncri 1 The uprising in Khuzestan, mothers of martyrs and women of Resistance Units actively support and participate July 2021 was an eventful month for the Iranian people. The Iranian Resistance’s annual gathering, the Free Iran World Summit 2021, successfully convened from July 10-12. This international online Summit connected Ashraf 3 with more than 50,000 points in 105 countries. The three-day Summit saw the participation of 1,029 prominent figures from five continents, many of whom spoke at the summit and expressed their support for the Democratic Alternative of the National Council of Resistance of Iran and the Iranian people’s uprising. One of the most outstanding parts of the event in its 17-year history was the participation of the supporters of the Iranian Opposition People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) and members of Resistance Units from inside Iran. In their direct video contacts with the Summit, the female members of the Resistance Units showed that these leading women by accepting many risks keep alive the light of hope and faith in victory for the Iranian people. Outburst of anger of thirsty people in Khuzestan A few days after the Iranian Resistance’s annual Summit, the uprising of the thirsty people of Khuzestan made news headlines around the world. The uprising in Khuzestan spread rapidly throughout the province. Then many cities joined the uprising and declared their solidarity with the thirsty people of Khuzestan. The protests in Khuzestan and their rapid expansion once again revealed the fact that Iranian society no longer wants the mullahs.

  • Effects of Climate Variables on the Incidence of Scorpion Stings in Iran for Five Years
    RESEARCH OPEN ACCESS ISSN 1678-9199 www.jvat.org Effects of climate variables on the incidence of scorpion stings in Iran for five years Ahmad Ghorbani1, Behzad Mansouri2, Masoumeh Baradaran1* 1Toxicology Research Center, Medical Basic Sciences Institute, Ahvaz Jundishapur University of Medical Sciences, Ahvaz, Iran. 2Department of Statistics, Shahid Chamran University of Ahvaz, Ahvaz, Iran. Abstract Background: Although scorpionism is recorded worldwide, some regions such as Iran present a higher incidence. Due to the great prevalence of scorpion stings in Khuzestan province, southwestern Iran, the present study examined the relationship between different climate parameters and the scorpion sting rate in this area from April 2010 to March 2015. Methods: In this cross-sectional descriptive-analytical study, we considered all scorpion sting cases recorded in the Department of Infectious Diseases, Ahvaz Jundishapur University of Medical Sciences. Data were analyzed using statistics, frequency distribution Keywords: and Pearson’s correlation coefficient. Scorpion stings Results: A total of 104,197 cases of scorpion stings was recorded from 2010 to 2015. Climate factors The cumulative incidence of scorpion sting was 2.23%. The spatial distribution Scorpionism of scorpion stings showed that most cases occurred in the Dehdez district (4,504 Khuzestan province scorpion stings/100,000 inhabitants) and the Masjed Soleyman county (4,069 scorpion stings/100,000 inhabitants). A significant association was found between climate factors Iran (temperature, evaporation rate, sunshine duration, humidity, and precipitation) and the scorpion sting rate. An increase in rainfall and humidity coincided with a reduction in scorpion stings whereas an increase in temperature, evaporation, and sunshine duration was accompanied by a growth of scorpion stings.
