The depth and style of faulting in this event are consistent with shortening of the shallow Arabian crust within the Zagros Mountains in response to active convergence between the Arabian and Eurasian plates. Because this event is an intraplate event, occurring almost 300 km south of the main plate boundary, and since the event likely did not break the surface, precise identification of the causative fault is difficult at this time. On a broad scale, the seismotectonics of southern Iran are controlled by active convergence between the Arabian and Eurasian tectonic plates.

  • Literary Heroization for the Cause of National Liberation
    Studia Litteraria Universitatis Iagellonicae Cracoviensis 2019, special issue, p. 75–89 Volume in Honour of Professor Anna Krasnowolska doi:10.4467/20843933ST.19.024.10967 www.ejournals.eu/Studia-Litteraria ROXANE HAAG-HIGUCHI Otto-Friedrich-Universität Bamberg, Germany e-mail:[email protected] Literary Heroization for the Cause of National Liberation Abstract Moḥammad Ḥoseyn Roknzādeh-Ādamiyat’s short novel Dalirān-e tangestāni (publ. 1931/1934) relates the story of warriors from Tangestān, located in the southwestern Iranian province of Bushehr, and their fight against the British in and shortly after World War I. From the time of its publication the novel met unfavorable criticism with regard to its artistic value but was ap- plauded for conveying patriotic spirit. This article argues that the novel is based on and struc- tured by the idea of heroization of the local protagonists, which ultimately served the national- ist policies of the Reżā Shāh period (1925–1941). In Roknzādeh-Ādamiyat’s introduction his novel is presented as a device of remembrance: just as remembrance of history forms the basis of a nation’s coherence, its self-esteem is augmented by the recorded memory of its heroes and their deeds. The protagonists of the novel are singled out for their heroic characteristics through the elaboration of specific motifs, e.g. individual bravery and the readiness for self-sacrifice. In the process of nation building, heroes also function as a link between the individual and the community; this article isolates the characteristics that are chosen in the novel to offer a model of identification to the imagined (Iranian) reader, and demonstrates how the contextualization of the heroes makes their integrative functions more visible.

  • Cancer Incidence in the East Azerbaijan Province of Iran in 2015
    Somi et al. BMC Public Health (2018) 18:1266 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12889-018-6119-9 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Cancer incidence in the East Azerbaijan province of Iran in 2015–2016: results of a population-based cancer registry Mohammad Hossein Somi1, Roya Dolatkhah2* , Sepideh Sepahi3, Mina Belalzadeh3, Jabraeil Sharbafi3, Leila Abdollahi3, Azin Nahvijou4, Saeed Nemati4, Reza Malekzadeh5 and Kazem Zendehdel4,6* Abstract Background: Few countries in the Middle East have a population-based cancer registry, despite a clear need for accurate cancer statistics in this region. We therefore established a registry in the East Azerbaijan province, the sixth largest province in northwestern Iran. Methods: We actively collected data from 20 counties, 62 cities, and 44 districts for the period between 20th March 2015 and 19th March 2016 (one Iranian solar year). The CanReg5 software was then used to estimate age-standardized incidence rates (ASRs) per 100,000 for all cancers and different cancer types. Results: Data for 11,536 patients were identified, but we only analyzed data for 6655 cases after removing duplicates and non-residents. The ASR for all cancers, except non-melanoma skin cancer, was 167.1 per 100,000 males and 125.7 per 100,000 females. The most common cancers in men were stomach (ASR 29.7), colorectal (ASR 18.2), bladder (ASR 17.6), prostate (ASR 17.3), and lung (ASR 15.4) cancers; in women, they were breast (ASR 31.1), colorectal (ASR 13.7), stomach (13.3), thyroid (ASR 7.8), and esophageal (ASR 7.1) cancers. Both the death certificate rate (19.5%) and the microscopic verification rate (65%) indicated that the data for the cancer registry were of reasonable quality.

  • Climate Adaptability of Old and New House in Bushehr's
    Civil and Environmental Engineering Vol. 16, Issue 2, 249-258, DOI: 10.2478/cee-2020-0024 CLIMATE ADAPTABILITY OF OLD AND NEW HOUSE IN BUSHEHR’S HISTORICAL TEXTURE Nadiya MOZAFARI 1,*, Masoud ALIMARDANI 1 1 Faculty of Architecture and Urbanism, Shahid Rajaee Teacher Training University, Tehran, Iran. * corresponding author: [email protected]. Abstract Keywords: Bushehr’s historical texture; The port of Bushehr, with its valuable and unique historical texture, completely matches with its unbearable climate conditions. Over Wind flow; hundreds of years, the port has provided an appropriate ground for Climate; human life as no air conditioner is needed there. Unfortunately, this Thermal comfort. valuable old texture has been destroyed inadvertently. New buildings in the port are just superficial copies of the old buildings’ external surfaces, with no attention to their goal, i.e., the provision of thermal comfort for inhabitants. The new buildings are dramatically increasing without considering the historical texture and climate. As a result, the inhabitants have to use air conditioners in most months continuously; hence, there would be an increase in energy consumption and a disruption in climate balance. This study has been conducted to compare the compatibility of such architecture with the climate and its success in providing climate comfort for the inhabitants. According to the information obtained from the study, the old houses built more than 100 years ago using traditional design had better performance in adaptability with climate . Accordingly, the exploitation of traditional instructions and patterns in a new format would largely reduce energy consumption in hot seasons and eliminate the need for heating in cold seasons.
