    CHAPTER FOUR INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY AREA 4.1 Introduction This chapter provides a general picture of socio-economic life in the four villages selected for the case study. All four villages are located in Northwestern Iran and, in terms of administrative divisions, belong to the Central District of the county of Marand. To give a general picture of the area where the sample villages are located, the present chapter begins with an overview of the socio-economic features of the county of Marand. This discussion is followed by a brief review of the villages' spatial context. Two types of data are used to describe and explain demographic changes in the sample villages. Changes in the size and structure of the population during the 2.5 years from 1966 till 1991 come from census data. Iran has experienced a massive and historically unprecedented movement of people from rural to urban centres over the past few decades (Kazemi 1980; Ayremlo 1984a; Hesamian, Etemad and Haery 1934; Hosseinzadeh 1992; Lahsaeizadeh, 1993b). In the context of the study area, this will be demonstrated by using data from the field survey. Infrastructure and provision of services will also be discussed to show the extent of the availability of needed services for residents on the one hand and the diversity among sample villages in terms of access on the other. This part of the chapter is based on field observations and data colleci:ed from interviews with local informed people. The final section of the Chapter concludes the discussion. 4.2 Study area in administrative divisions The four villages selected for the study of socio-economic changes are situated in the Dowlat Abad Subdistrict of the county of Marand in the province of Eastern 76 Azarbaijan (Map 4.1).

In order to evaluate several alfalfa populations from East Azerbaijan of Iran, an experiment based on randomized complete block design was performed under field conditions during three appropriate growing seasons (2010-2013) at the East Azarbaijan Agricultural and Natural Resources Research and Education Center, Tabriz, Iran. Thirty alfalfa populations were selected from East Azerbaijan, Iran. The morphological traits and molecular marker (RAPD) were evaluated in all alfalfa populations. The result showed that the most morphological attributes had a significant difference between alfalfa populations, and it was indicated that each alfalfa population is related to various locations of East Azerbaijan. Correlation drawn between dry weight and agronomic attributes in the alfalfa populations showed that dry weight was strongly correlated with plant height. Cluster analysis, using UPGMA procedure, based on RAPD banding pattern in 30 alfalfa populations formed four groups. Overall, all alfalfa populations had more genetic diversity and can be used in a breeding program that can be made synthetic cultivars. Key words: Alfalfa, Cluster, Diversity, Environment, Germplasm, Morphological. INTRODUCTION Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.), a fundamental forage crop grown in the temperate regions, is cultivated over 32 million hectares worldwide [15] and about 680 thousand hectares in the northwest of Iran.

Acta Geologica Polonica, 50 (3), 355-367. Warszawa. Teeth of the stratigraphically relevant elasmobranch Phoebodus gothicus were recovered from samples collected from the Ilan-Ghareh Formation in the neighbourhood of Zonuz in East Azerbaijan province, Iran. The associated fauna confirms a middle Famennian age, marginilera and trachytera conodont Zone. Comparisons with European, North American, African and other Asian locations show a stratigraphically restricted distribution of Phoebodus gothicus in the Famennian, Early marginilera to Middle praesulcata Zone. The Zonuz sample furthermore contains conodonts, ostracods, gastropods, crinoids as well as tooth and bone fragments of other chondrichthyans, placoderms, and oste­ ichthyans. The ostracods indicate a neritic, shallow water environment with a probable high nutrient flux.

Previous studies dealing with the tribes are summarized and new data on their distribution in Iran are provided. The genera Aleimma and Argyrotaenia and the species Aleimma loeflingiana (LINNAEUS), Acleris rhombana (DENIS & SCHIFFERMÜLLER), A. quercinana (ZELLER), A. sparsana (DENIS & SCHIFFERMÜLLER), A. lacordairana caucasica FILIPJEV, A. forsskaleana (LINNAEUS), Pandemis heparana (DENIS & SCHIFFERMÜLLER), Argyrotaenia ljungiana (THUNBERG), Choristoneura lafauryana (RAGONOT), Archips crataeganus (HÜBNER), A. philippa (MEYRICK), Aphelia ochreana HÜBNER, A. viburnana (DENIS & SCHIFFERMÜLLER) and A. peramplana (HÜBNER) are newly reported from Iran. Introduction The subfamily Tortricinae is a paraphyletic group, but there are no synapomorphies to associate particular tribes within the subfamily. This subfamily consists of 11 tribes, many of which are distributed in the Palaearctic region with some (Sparganothini, Eulini) having only a few representatives. So far, more than 2600 species belonging to 372 genera have been described in the Tortricinae, of which most belong to two tribes, the Cochylini and Archipini (HORAK 1999). 137 © Entomofauna Ansfelden/Austria; download unter www.biologiezentrum.at

  • ۸۵.The Hydrochemical Evaluation of Groundwater Quality in The
    The 1 st International Applied Geological Congress, Department of Geology, Islamic Azad University - Mashad Branch, Iran, 26-28 April 2010 The hydrochemical evaluation of groundwater quality in the Harzandat plain aquifer, Northwest of Iran N. Aghazadeh 11, and A. A. Mogaddam 2 1 Department of Geology, Azad University, Urmia branch, Urmia, Iran 2 Department of Geology, Tabriz University, Tabriz, Iran Abstract The Harzandat plain is part of the East Azarbaijan province, which lies between Marand and Jolfa cities, northwestern of Iran, and its groundwater resources are developed for water supply and irrigation purposes. For hydrogeological consideration and optimum management of groundwater resources a mathematical model as an efficient and economical tool was prepared. In order to evaluate the quality of groundwater in study area, 36 groundwater samples were collected and analyzed for various parameters. Chemical indexes like sodium adsorption ratio, percentage of sodium, residual sodium carbonated, permeability index (PI) and chloroalkaline indexes were calculated. Based on the analytical results, groundwater in the area is generally very hard, brackish, high to very high saline and alkaline in nature. The abundance of the major ions is as follows: Cl> HCO3 > SO4 and Na>Ca>Mg>K. The dominant hydrochemical facieses of groundwater is Na-Cl type and alkalis (Na, K) and strong acids (Cl, SO4) are slightly dominating over alkali earths(Ca, Mg) and weak acids(HCO3,CO3). The chemical quality of groundwater is related to the lithology of the area and the residence time of the groundwater in contact with rock materials. The results of calculation saturation index by computer program PHREEQC shows that the nearly all of the water samples were supersaturated with respect to carbonate minerals and undersaturated with respect to sulfate minerals.
