Abstract
Environmental pollution has made urban citizens to focus on landscapes. In this respect Lown is very important plant. From the other hand water resources in many arid and semi-arid region is saline. For this purpose a research was conducted to study the effect of sprinkling irrigation with saline water on growth parameters of three Lown varieties. These varieties were Poa partensis, Festuca arundianca and Lolium prenne. A complete randomized block with 3 irrigation treatments and 9 replications were used. The salinity of irrigation waters were EC=2.4 and EC= 5.3 dS/m. growth parameters were followed for 7 months. After this period of time, germination rate, height of plant, dry weight of ground canopy and length of roots were measured. The results showed that Festuca is resistance to salinity while Poa could not tolerate and dried immediately after increasing air temperature.
Key words: Salinity, Sprinkling irrigation, Lown varieties, Lolium, Festuca, Poa

Abstract
In order to estimate the freezing depth and developing a simple and rational relationship between air temperatures at the screen and soil temperature at different depths a study was conducted during 1386. The maximum and minimum daily air temperatures (2 meter above ground) and the soil temperature at 5, 10, 20, 30, 50 and 100 centimeter depths were measured at 12 stations of Khorasan Razavi province. Functional relationships were developed between air and soil temperatures for each station. Also, soil freezing depths were estimated by four standard methods. The estimated depths were compared with actual freezing depths which were measured during the year of observation. The results showed that the Finnish and Norway methods were more reliable than U.S. and SNipll – 15 – 74 methods.
