This research is an integration of GIS and multi-criteria decision making into a joint framework for identifying suitable areas for rainwater harvesting structures. The Kavir National park in Iran has been evaluated for suitability of rainwater harvesting. To this end, slope gradient, distance to guarding stations, distance to watering points for transporting collected water, distribution […]
One of the major issues examined in the quantitative ecology is the spatial distribution pattern of plant species. Knowledge of the spatial distribution patterns is essential to measure the level of uniformity in the surrounding environment, plant reproduction, and distribution of the seedlings, plant behavioral patterns, coexistence, allelopathic relations, and competition. Therefore, the aim of […]
In this research, the impact of a carbon sequestration project, in the Hossein Abad Plain in Southern Khorasan Province of Iran, on the status of water and wind erosion was evaluated. The study area has a harsh climatic condition with low annual precipitation and is prone to well-known 120-day winds in summer. Since 2005, various […]
Land-use and land-use change can directly affect soil organic carbon. Improper land management can lead to carbon loss from the soil, which can greatly intensify global warming. Despite the abundance of evidence on Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) in Iran, no paper has so far compiled the data for this region. Therefore, data were collected from […]
