Abstract

Reyahi-Khoram M, Hoshmand K. 2012. Assessment of biodiversities and spatial structure of Zarivar Wetland in Kurdistan Province, Iran. Biodiversitas 13: 130-134. Wetlands are valuable ecosystems that occupy about 6% of the world’s land surface. Iran has over 250 wetlands measuring about 2.5 million hectares. Zarivar wetland (ZW) is the only natural aquatic ecosystem in Kurdistan province in Iran. The present research was carried out during 2009 through 2010 with the aim of recognizing the capabilities and limitations of ZW through documentary, extensive field visits and also direct field observations during the years of study. Geographic Information System (GIS) has been used to evaluate the land as a main tool. The results of this research showed that ZW has a great talent regarding diversity of bird species and the ecological status of wetland has caused the said wetland welcome numerous species of birds. The results of this research showed that industrial pollutions are not considered as threats to the wetland but evacuation of agricultural runoff and development of Marivan city toward the wetland and the resulting pollution load could be introduced as an important part of thewetland threats. It is recommended to make necessary studies in the field of various physical and biological parameters of the wetland, and also the facing threats and opportunities.Key words: aquatic, biodiversity, environment, wetland, Zarivar

Abstract

Reyahi-Khoram M, Norisharikabad V, Vafaei H. 2012. Study of biodiversity and limiting factors of Ag-gol Wetland in Hamadan Province, Iran. Biodiversitas 13: 135-139. Ag-gol Wetland isone of the important and seasonal wetlands of Iran. This wetland islocated on southeast of Hamadan Province and was declared as a prohibited hunting area by Department of Environment (DoE) of Iran. Identifying the characteristics, capabilities and limiting factors of Ag-gol Wetland is the most important objective of this study. The present study was conducted during 2007 through 2010. Documentary and observation methods have been used to access to information. For general identification of the area, digital maps and Geographic Information System (GIS) were used. Identifying capabilities and limitation factors of the studied area was made through extensive field inspections and direct field observations. Bird species of the region were identified and statistics of the population of bird species were gathered. In this research, valid academic resources were used. According to field inspections and studies, 46 species of waterfowl birds and wader birds of Iran have been identified at this wetland. The results of this research showed that Ag-gol Wetland has a high potential regarding the variety of waterfowl and wader birds. Continuous study in order to determine the depth of wetland water in different time intervals to estimate the volume of wetland water during different seasons of the year is recommended.
