In this study, the effects of using various obstacles on the thermohydraulic performance of a collectors were examined experimentally and compared to the performance of a simple collector. Material and Methodology: A solar air collector was designed, built and tested under the environmental conditions of Abadan city in Khuzestan province. Three different perforated obstacles with three hole sizes (3, 4 and 5 cm) were placed on the absorber plate. Measured parameters include the temperature of inlet and outlet air, absorber plate, pressure drop and solar radiation. Measurements were made for two different air flux (0.0218 and 0.0364 kg/s). Findings: It has become clear that using various perforated obstacles increases the temperature difference between inlet and outlet air and subsequently their efficiencies compared to a simple conventional collector. It was also noted that in all cases, the increase in mass flowrate causes increasing the effective and thermal efficiency of system and decreasing the temperature difference between inlet and outlet air. Temperature difference in the best case (perforated obstacles with 3 cm holes) for each of the two flowrates increases twice compared to the simple collector. Also, the highest amount of average efficiency for two flowrates is 68% and 83% and the average effective efficiency is 28.4% and 34.1%. Discussion and Conclusion: With the reduction of sizes of the holes in the perforated obstacles, the rate of heat transfer and subsequently the thermal efficiency of the collector will increase due to increasing the turbulence of the flow. This causes the pressure drop to rise up as well but also has a positive effect of increasing the temperature difference which dominates the negative effect of the pressure drop and eventually it becomes clear that there is a direct relation between increasing the effective efficiency with reducing the size of the holes.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of climatic variables on the diameter growth of alder species along an altitude gradient in undisturbed Hyrcanian forests (Neka-Zalmorud forests of Mazandaran province). Material and Methodology: For this purpose, three altitude regions (low land, middle land and high land) in sample parcels were selected. In each area, 10 trees and totally 30 trees were selected using seleted sampling method. Necessary samples were prepared from using increment borer. 50-year (1965-2014) climatic data of temperature, precipitation and relative humidity were prepared from related sources and the SPI index was calculated. Findings: The results showed that there is a correlation between acceptable the time series and a strong relationship between growth and climatic variables. There was a significant difference between all three regions and the highest diameter growth was obtained in the middle land. The study of the relationship between climatic variables and the growth also showed that in the low land region, temperature and relative humidity factors have a significant negative correlation (-0.571) and positive (0.734), respectively. The same variables were significant in the middle land area. In high land region, none of the climatic variables showed a significant relationship with growth. Discussion and Conclusion: Growth at low and middle lands has shown more dependence on climate and growth of this species has decreased during the study period. Manuscript profile -

4 - Different Approaches for the Implementation of International Environmental Law in the Domestic Law of selected Countries with a review of the Iranian Legal System
azam parandeh motlagh shirin shirazian ali zareThe enforcement of international environmental law in various legal systems is one of the most up-to-date issues of The enforcement of international environmental law in various legal systems is one of the most up-to-date contemporary international law issues. In this MoreThe enforcement of international environmental law in various legal systems is one of the most up-to-date issues of The enforcement of international environmental law in various legal systems is one of the most up-to-date contemporary international law issues. In this regard, Article 9 of the Iranian Civil Code has provided a solution for implementing international treaties. However, in addition to its interpretation, it could not be applied to other international law sources such as international customary law or decisions of international courts. This article aims to examine the different approaches to implementing international environmental law in the domestic law of countries with a view of the Iranian legal system. Based on an analytical approach and an inductive approach, this study also considers possible legislative solutions for effective international environmental law enforcement in Iran. Investigations and studies of this research have shown that there are credible legal capacities in the Iranian legal system for effective enforcement of international law despite legal uncertainties and enforcement constraints. At the same time, it is necessary to enact laws and regulations to clearly explain the relationship between Iranian domestic law and international customary and contractual obligations.

This area is part of the Gulf-Omani vegetation area and has received less attention. Material and Methodology: Plant types were distinguished by physiognomic methods and vegetation sampling was done in 120 plots (2m2) by calculating of vegetation cover. Two ordination techniques including de-trended correspondence analysis (DCA) and canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) were applied to examine the relationships between vegetation and edaphic factors. Findings: Six plant types according to dominant species were Halocnemum strobilaceum, Halocnemum strobilaceum - Plantago cylindrica, Halocnemum strobilaceum - Aeluropus lagopoides near ebb and flow region of sea and Gymnocarpos decander - Platychaete mucronifolia, Halothamnus iranicus - Astragalus fasciculifolius, Arthrocnemum macrostachyum far from sea cost. In each plant type soil sampling was done by digging five profiles randomly. Finally, 66 species representing 22 families were collected. The largest families were Poaceae, Asteraceae, Chenopoiaceae, and Papilionaceae, representing 16.7%, 13.6%, 10.6% and 10.6% of the total flora, respectively. Vegetation was classified using two-way indicator species analysis (TWINSPAN), thereby producing four vegetation groups that were linked to habitat types. Discussion and Conclusion: According to results total variance in vegetation was 6.11 and the first two canonical axes accounted for 34.9% of the community-soil factor relationship among plant groups. As identified via CCA, the main gradients were Co3/HCo3 and EC, Gypsum and elevation that associated with soil texture remarkably. Manuscript profile -

Currently, countries that are facing the problem of lack of water resources are investigating the feasibility of using wastewater under the title of unconventional waters. But unfortunately, very little research has been done in this regard. Materials and Methodology: In order to investigate the amount of changes in some elements and characteristics of the soil under irrigation with wastewater, for 3 years, an experiment was conducted as a randomized complete block design with three repetitions. Sampling was done from two depths of soil 0-30 and 30-60 cm, and the parameters of sodium, total calcium and magnesium, acidity and electrical conductivity of the soil in three study locations (without irrigation, irrigation with treated wastewater, and irrigation with water of river) was measured and analyzed. Findings: The effluent from Zahedan treatment plant has caused an acceptable increase in the amount of sodium, total calcium and magnesium, and soil acidity compared to the control area. But regarding the electrical conductivity, irrigation with sewage decreased this amount. Discussion and Conclusion: Effluent causes an effective and acceptable increase of some soil elements, which can be an effective help in soil regeneration and to be used as one of the water sources especially in dry areas that are facing a shortage of water resources.

Currently, industrial pollution is considered the main cause of environmental degradation. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the ecological risk of toxic metals lead, zinc, and cadmium in the Lakan lead and zinc processing company.Method: After organizing and standardizing the data using GIS, ecological risk assessment and also the environmental risk index of toxic metals in the study area were estimated.Findings: The results of the ecological risk assessment showed that among the studied toxic metals, cadmium metal has the lowest risk (0.01% of the area in the high-risk class) and zinc has the highest risk (0.02% of the area in the high-risk class). Also, the results of the environmental risk index assessed 99% of the region in terms of cadmium metal risk in the low-risk category and 92% of the region in terms of zinc risk in the critical class, and lead metal was in the intermediate status.Discussion and Conclusion: In conclusion, it can be stated that following industrialization, the spread of industrial pollution is inevitable, but methods and measures have been used to mitigate and reduce their consequences. One of the important methods in reducing the effects of environmental pollution is ecological risk assessment. Therefore, considering the capabilities of GIS systems in the preparation of environmental assessment maps, it seems that this system can be useful in facilitating the assessment of the ecological vulnerability of metal mining industries.
