On the sound waves propagation in the Persian Gulf

In this research I focused on the propagation of acoustic rays in shallow water areas then I selected the Persian Gulf and described sound transmission in this region with emphasize on physical properties of water masses and of sediments. Finally I studied on the sound speed variations and sound attention with data collected from this area (NE of Farsi Island & 50 kilometers south of Delware). Sound speed deviation in western part of Strait of Hormuz in winter is between 20-30 m/s and it is between 5-20 m/s in the Oman Sea. Minimum sound speed deviation is at 23-24 degree north & 60-62 degree east. In spring, this deviation varies from 25-35 m/s, which is greater than in winter. In winter, at east of 56 degree east, greater speed are in shallow water coastal areas. In summer, sound speeds are greater than in spring and vary from 35 to 55 m/s at western part of Strait of Hormuz and 20 to 40 m/s in Oman Sea. Finally in autumn, sound speed deviation is 30-45 m/s west of 56 degree east and in Oman Sea is the same. The greatest attenuation rate caused by absorption in Bandar Dayer is between 17 to 27 meters depth, which is from water masses with different densities.

Study of nephrocalcinosis in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss), from fry to brood stock

For survey incidence of nephrocalcinosis in rainbow trout fish, during winter 1385, samplings were performed in three fish farm with different water source: river, spring and recirculation system by using well water. In this survey 5 specimens from each 8 groups and in general 120 specimens of this fish were caught by random sampling, and also amounts of O2, CO2, pH and temperature of water were measured. Then blooding and renal tissue sampling performed that renal samples were fixed in 10% buffered formalin and blood samples after separating serum stored in -200C. Renal specimens transferred to pathology laboratory, pathological slides were prepared and stained by hematoxylin & Eosin method. From 120 specimens, 6 cases of fish represent nephrocalcinosis. Pathologic signs include: renal epithelial necrosis, dilated ureters, dense basophilic materials inside the dilated tubules and cast formation in some renal tubules. From 6 cases of nephrocalcinosis, 3 cases (7/5%) were related to recirculation system and 2 (5%) case were related to river water and 1 (2/5%) case was related to spring water. In survey amount of urea, creatinine and Uric acid between different weight groups, distinguished that difference between creatinine middling in different weight groups were significant and also in between healthy and afflicted fish, significant statistical difference were only in creatinine amount between healthy and afflicted fish in each farm. Amounts of O2, pH and temperature of water in three farms were in normal range and only rate of water CO2 in ponds of recirculatory system were very higher (25 mg/lit) than other farms. May be, this reason led to high number of nephrocalcinosis in recirculatory system, than other farms, nemley 7/5% of fish that caught from this farm .This subject is related to the role of CO2 in creating nephrocalcinosis which is descript in references.
