Abstract:

Although all of the existing water resources and lakes in the world are not suitable for agriculture,their preservation plays a very decisive role in preventing environmental disasters. Unfortunately, water sources in many countries are not strictly protected and are in danger of drying up as a result of artificial factors. Lake Urmia located between East and West Azerbaijani provinces in Iran is one of these lakes. Since the 1990s of the last century, the water level in Lake Urmia, which is considered one of the largest lakes in the world in terms of salinity, has decreased and is currently f

Future changes (2015–2100) in precipitation and meteorological droughts in Lake Urmia Basin were investigated using an average mean ensemble of eight general circulation models (GCMs) with high-resolution datasets in socioeconomic pathway scenarios (SSPs) from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6). In order to project the drought, the standardized precipitation index (SPI) was calculated. Overall, the results revealed that precipitation in Lake Urmia Basin will decrease by 3.21% and 7.18% in the SSP1-2.6 and SSP5-8.5 scenarios, respectively. The results based on 6-month-timescale S

Abstract:

Many saline lakes throughout the world are shrinking due to overexploitation of water in their drainage basins. Among them are two of the world’s largest saline lakes, the U.S.A.’s Great Salt Lake, and Iran’s Lake Urmia. Here we provide a comparative analysis of the desiccation of these two lakes that provides insights on management decisions that may help save them and that are relevant to saline lake management worldwide. Great Salt Lake and Lake Urmia were once remarkably similar in size, depth, salinity, and geographic setting. High rates of population growth in both basins have fueled a d

Atmospheric aerosols affect the Earth's climate, air quality, and thus human health. This study used the Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) and the Ångström exponent to cluster different particle types over the Lake Urmia Basin. This classification found desert dust and marine (mixed with continental or local-pollution aerosols) as two main aerosol types over the region, while their sources are not well defined. Although different air masses and wind circulation over the study domain in varied months can help to distinguish aerosol sources, measurements are crucial for a complete evaluation.

ABSTRACT Urmia Lake is a large-scale hypersaline lake that experienced a drastic water-level fall due to natural and anthropogenic forces during the last two decades. Construction of a causeway in the central part of the lake after 1989 has divided the lake into northern and southern parts and caused an extreme change of the lake hydrochemical system. Precipitation of evaporite minerals as crust on the lake floor was caused by the combination of lake level fall and increasing water salinity.

Abstract:

In the late 1990s, Lake Urmia, located in northwestern Iran, was the largest saltwater lake in the Middle East. However, it has experienced severe shrinkage over the years, culminating in its division into two separate sections by 2008, with long-term consequences still uncertain. This study examines the changes in Lake Urmia from 2010 to 2020, focusing on various drought indicators such as Temperature Condition Index (TCI), Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Vegetation Condition Index (VCI), Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI), and Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI).

Abstract:

Abstract During the last decade, Urmia Lake has lost most of its surface area. As a result, finding management practices to restore the sustainable ecological status of Urmia Lake, the world's second largest hyper-saline lake, is imperative. In this study, the sustainability of different plans under climate change was assessed using system dynamics. The plans were evaluated with respect to sustainability criteria including reliability, resiliency, and vulnerability measures. According to the results due to different management practices, on average, water consumption should be reduced by at le

Abstract:

Urmia Lake is a hyper-saline lake in northwestern Iran that has been drying up since 2005. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the water quality in aquifers that are the main source of fresh water for the eastern plains Urmia Lake, which has been drying up due to intensive land use/cover changes and climate change. We evaluated hydro-geochemical data and factors contributing to aquifer pollution and quality variation for nine aquifers in the vicinity of Urmia Lake during the dry and wet seasons from 2000–2020. Our methodology was based on the analysis of 10 years of data from 356

Abstract:

In this study, we examined the aerosols in the Urmia Lake atmosphere, using a polarization lidar, looking for traces of salt particles. Urmia Lake is a hypersaline lake and most part of it now is dry. We have applied the two-step POLIPHON method to classify particles in three categories, i.e., dust, non-dust, and salt-dust/polluted dust. In the vicinity of the lake’s bed, salt-dust particles (mixture of dust and salt) exhibit lower particle depolarization ratios (PDRs) compared with pure dust; However, their PDRs are higher than urban pollution or other anthropogenic particles.

Abstract:

A holistic approach to the management of water, energy, food, and the environment is required to both meet the socioeconomic demands of the future as well as sustainable development of these limited resources. The Urmia Lake Basin has faced environmental, social, and economic challenges in recent years, and this situation is likely to worsen under the impacts of climate change. For this study, an adaptability analysis of this region is proposed for the 2040 horizon year.

Abstract:

The rivers, including Aras, in the Mughan region played an important role in the formation of the prehistoric sites. The Mughan Plain has not received particular attention in terms of the archaeological investigations, as the extensive scientific activities concentrated on the Lake Urmia basin. Yataq-Tepesi is a prehistoric site in the city of Germi (Mughan Region) that became the subject of the scientific research. The main aim of this paper is to discuss the pottery traditions at the site and to determine the chronological sequence of the studied region. In view of further detailed studies o

Abstract:

Alterations of water flows resulting from the manifestation of powerful hydro–social imaginaries often produce an uneven distribution of burdens and benefits for different social groups or regions, reflecting their social and political power. Marginalized regions can suffer manufactured territorialized water scarcity, which disturbs the natural, economic and socio-political order of water users, and as this article shows, inevitably affects their psychological wellbeing.
