Growth and productivity of plants are mainly affected by various environmental factors in different ecosystems and natural habitat in the world. This research aims to study the existing relationships between the phytosociology characteristics of Thymus kotschyanus and environmental factors in order to find the most important factors governing development of the species in middle Taleghan […]
The aim of this study was to evaluate the biodiversity ofplant associations in On Ebn-e-Ali Mountain in Tabriz and its relationship to various biodiversity indices. Four plant associations including 1) Noaea mucronata- Poetum bulbosa, 2) Noaea mucronata- Brometum tomentellus, 3) related to bush form as well as Poeto bulbosa-Brometum tomentellus and4) Brometo danthonia – Brometum […]
Understanding ecological processes is a prerequisite for the management of rangelands; therefore, recognition of the relationship between environmental factors and vegetation is very important. The present research aims to investigate environmental and management factors affecting rangeland vegetation distribution in Saral rangelands of Kurdistan province, Iran, in 2017. Sampling was done in eight vegetation types along […]
Soil salinity has concerned people in arid and semi-arid rangelands. One of the most essential cases in relation to information for natural resource managers is preparation of soil salinity maps. Developing such maps, using traditional methods spends a lot of time and costs. Satellite data have broadened and integrated our vision for this purpose. This […]
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of environmental factors on the plant composition and diversity in QezelOzan – Kosar rangelands of Ardabil province, Iran in 2016. Eight sites with elevation ranging from 900 to 2100 meters above sea level were selected, and three 100-m transects with 10 plots of 1 m2 […]
Prediction of Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) reservoirs is high priority in the rangelands managements in arid and semi-arid regions. This study was conducted to estimation carbon sequestration using Multivariate Linear Regression Analysis (MLR), Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Euclidean Distance from the soil line (D) on remote sensing data in semi-arid rangelands of southwest of […]
