        To study the effects of different planting time on yield, yield components and some of agronomic traits of soybean varieties, an experiment was conducted as factorial on the basis of completely randomized block design at three replications in Agricultural Research Station of Islamic Azad University, Ardabil branch in 2009. The first factor in this experiment was planting time in four levels (27 May, 5, 15 and 26 June) and the second factor involved varieties of Williams and L17 Line. Experiment results showed that differences between varieties were not significant for all traits, while there were significant differences between planting times for all traits except grain number per pod. Also interaction of planting date × varieties was not significant for all of traits. Planting dates of (27 May and 5 Jun) were placed in a single class for plant height, biological yield, oil percentage (18/5 and 15/98), 100 grain weight (13/5 and12.36 gr). Also, the mentioned traits had the highest values in those planting dates. planting date of 27 May had the highest values for final yield (2227 kg/ha ), nod number per plant and pod number per plant. Results of this research, indicated that plant could not get its potentiality. Because, they lacked suitable time for growth and this subject cause to reduce in yield. Therefore, the planting date of 27 May was recommended for Ardabil cold climate. Manuscript profile

        Conservation of environment and the needs of future generations along with utilization of free energies, has become a necessity and considered as a sustainable concept in most fields of science and technologies. Sustainable development and consequently, sustainable architecture is considered in consistent residential development with the natural surrounding environment. So the aim of this study is to effect of climatic factor in locating and design of mountainous hotel in Germi township. In this study, climatic and environmental components considering a sustainable architecture is employed to locate and design of mountainous hotel in Germi Township, Ardabil. In this regard, the Meteorology data in the period 2004 to 2014 were obtained from Germi Meteorological station. The climate, topography, social and cultural status, and environmental factors were used in locating and designing of the study site. According to the results of climatic data into site selection and designing the suitable location for mountainous hotel, the highest average air temperature was observed in summer season (25.6 Celsius degree), and the highest amount precipitation, relative humidity and frost days is occurred in winter season. Determining the climate conditions can be considered as an important factor in welfare of building residents, according to interaction of cliamtic factors and architecture. Since, the sunshine provides natural light and heat, thus, it can be consider as the most important climatic variable in design of buildings. Manuscript profile
