Evaporation is one of the most important components of hydrologic cycle. Accurate estimation of this parameter is used for studies such as water balance, irrigation system design, and water resource management. In order to estimate the evaporation, direct measurement methods or physical and empirical models can be used. Using direct methods require installing meteorological stations […]
Groundwater is among the most important resources of drinking water supply of the worldwide population. Use of recharge area is one of the methods for artificially recharging groundwater. Selection of suitable sites for artificial recharge is very important and must be carried out accurately. There are different types of land use, only rangelands are appropriate […]
There is growing concern about severe rangeland degradation caused mainly by the overstocking and overgrazing of these lands, especially in developing countries. Since ranchers’ behaviors and practices are crucial determinants of rangelands conservation, this study was conducted to clarify the underlying constructs of ranchers’ intention to conserve rangelands. It is based on an extended theory […]
