Degradation of plant patches is considered as one of the indices for rangeland degrading health condition. Investigating the accuracy of triple indices (infiltration, stability and soil nutrient cycle) presented by LFA method seems necessary to determine its efficiency in semi-arid areas with the least cost. This study aims to investigate the role of vegetative species […]
One of the main factors to decrease water quality in rivers is land use changes. This study was conducted to choose the best way for land use management in order to increase water quality related to the least turbidity, improving natural landscape quality and attracting ecotourism. So, the effect of land use changes on turbidity […]
