Abstract Lake Urmia, in northwest Iran, is the second most saline lake in the world. During
the past two decades, the level of water has markedly decreased. In this paper, climate of …

In recent decades, population growth, agricultural development and climate change have
caused environmental problems in the world, especially in the arid and semi-arid regions …

Lake water level changes are relatively sensitive to the climate-born events that rely on
numerous phenomena, eg, surface soil type, adjacent groundwater discharge, and …

Abstract The Urmia Lake, a hypersaline lake in Northwest Iran is facing a severe drying
scenario. The dried part of the lake can act as a source of salt particles that may contaminate …

Different sensing methods provide valuable information for comprehensive monitoring

Aim The aim of this study was to analyze the water quality of a tropical, semi-arid reservoir
after a reflooding. In terms of impact on water quality after a drought event, it is expected that …

This study investigates the future changes in precipitation extreme indices in the Lake Urmia
Basin during the period 2021–2100 compared to the base period (1987–2016), using the …

Fast multi-output relevance vector regression (FMRVR) algorithm is developed for
simultaneous estimation of groundwater and lake water depth for the first time in this study …

One of the most effective ways to reverse the decline of Iran's iconic Urmia Lake is to directly
confront the development patterns that have contributed to the current crisis. This study's …
