  • Rare Birds in Iran in the Late 1960S and 1970S
    Podoces, 2008, 3(1/2): 1–30 Rare Birds in Iran in the Late 1960s and 1970s DEREK A. SCOTT Castletownbere Post Office, Castletownbere, Co. Cork, Ireland. Email: [email protected] Received 26 July 2008; accepted 14 September 2008 Abstract: The 12-year period from 1967 to 1978 was a period of intense ornithological activity in Iran. The Ornithology Unit in the Department of the Environment carried out numerous surveys throughout the country; several important international ornithological expeditions visited Iran and subsequently published their findings, and a number of resident and visiting bird-watchers kept detailed records of their observations and submitted these to the Ornithology Unit. These activities added greatly to our knowledge of the status and distribution of birds in Iran, and produced many records of birds which had rarely if ever been recorded in Iran before. This paper gives details of all records known to the author of 92 species that were recorded as rarities in Iran during the 12-year period under review. These include 18 species that had not previously been recorded in Iran, a further 67 species that were recorded on fewer than 13 occasions, and seven slightly commoner species for which there were very few records prior to 1967. All records of four distinctive subspecies are also included. The 29 species that were known from Iran prior to 1967 but not recorded during the period under review are listed in an Appendix. Keywords: Rare birds, rarities, 1970s, status, distribution, Iran. INTRODUCTION Eftekhar, E. Kahrom and J. Mansoori, several of whom quickly became keen ornithologists.

  • |The Origins of the Arab-Iranian Conflict
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-108-48908-9 — The Origins of the Arab-Iranian Conflict Chelsi Mueller Frontmatter More Information |The Origins of the Arab-Iranian Conflict The interwar period marked a transition from a Gulf society characterized by symbiosis and interdependency to a subregion characterized by national divisions, sectarian suspicions, rivalries, and political tension. In this study, Chelsi Mueller tells the story of a formative period in the Gulf, examining the triangular relationship between Iran, Britain, and the Gulf Arab shaykhdoms. By doing so, Mueller reveals how the revival of Iranian national ambitions in the Gulf had a significant effect on the dense web of Arab-Iranian relations during the interwar period. Shedding new light on our current understanding of the present-day Arab-Iranian conflict, this study, which pays particular attention to Bahrain and the Trucial States (United Arab Emirates), fills a significant gap in the literature on the history of Arab-Iranian relations in the Gulf and Iran’s Persian Gulf policy during the Reza Shah period. chelsi mueller is a research fellow at the Moshe Dayan Center for Middle Eastern and African Studies at Tel Aviv University. © in this web service Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 978-1-108-48908-9 — The Origins of the Arab-Iranian Conflict Chelsi Mueller Frontmatter More Information The Origins of the Arab-Iranian Conflict Nationalism and Sovereignty in the Gulf between the World Wars chelsi mueller Tel Aviv University © in this web

  • Marine and Coastal Indigenous and Community Conserved Areas (Iccas) in the South of Iran and a Review of Related Laws
    Marine and Coastal Indigenous and Community Conserved Areas (ICCAs) in the South of Iran and a Review of Related Laws Razieh Ghayoumi The United Nations-Nippon Foundation Fellowship Programme 2013 - 2014 DIVISION FOR OCEAN AFFAIRS AND THE LAW OF THE SEA OFFICE OF LEGAL AFFAIRS, THE UNITED NATIONS NEW YORK DISCLAIMER The views expressed herein are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of the Government of Islamic Republic of Iran, the United Nations, the Nippon Foundation of Japan, or Saint Mary's University. © 2014 Razieh Ghayoumi. All rights reserved. 2 Abstract The new concept and yet the old one about conservation with the contribution of indigenous people and local communities has attracted many scientists’ attention. International conservation policies and programms recognize and support indigenous and community conserved areas and encourage all states to do the same. This thesis aimed to introduce marine and coastal Indigenous and Community Conserved Areas and the related laws, regulations and development plans thoroughly in Iran. The main focus of this thesis is on traditional conservation by local communities in Qeshm Island, located in Hormozgan province in south of Iran along the Persian Gulf. Through this study, it was concluded that indigenous people and local communities have an important role in governing protected areas and it is recommended to include them in conservation programms. 3 SUPERVISORS: Dr. Anthony Charles Dr. Francois Bailet Ms. Valentina Germani 4 Acronyms CBD Convention on Biological

  • Marine Industries
    Marine 11 Industries 138 Marine Industries Marine Industries I. History and Background Iran with 8500 km coastal line and access to some international strategic waterways is an import- ant country. Since ancient times, Iranians have always been actively involved in marine and its related industries. Ancient Iranian civilization mostly owes its progress to shipbuilding industries. Iran’s rich offshore oil and gas reservoirs are also another added advantage for Iranian marine industries. Maritime industry in Iran comprises a wide range of varying areas such as shipbuilding, offshore structures, fisheries, transportation, ports, and tourism; hence, it is considered to be one of the most strategic sectors of the country. Shipbuilding Iran’s tanker fleet has a capacity of 16 million tons and is the second large tanker fleet in the world; increasing the capacity of cargo ships, it mounts to 21 million tons. In fact, the Islamic Republic of Iran Shipping Lines (IRISL) is the biggest merchant company in the Middle East and it operates about 160 vessels with average lifetime of 14 years and annual capacity of over 5 million DWT. Also, the National Iranian Tanker Company (NITC) with 46 carriers and tankers is the fifth largest tanker fleet in the world. It is also worth mentioning that according to 2013 Clarksons Research, the world overall shipbuilding capacity is over 45 million CGT, of which Iran’s share is estimated to be 0.27 percent. Offshore Structures Iran’s long water borders and huge offshore oil and gas resources along with its massive hydrocarbon reserves in the Caspian Sea and the Persian Gulf make the country’s offshore industry highly important particularly over the last two decades.
