              In sustainable development process, native evaluation of limit of thermal comfort with the goal of energy conservation is necessary in different climates.  Because with determination of these limits, energy loss is declined considerably and causes to decline of unsuitable energy consuming. With respect to, more than 60 percent of Iran area is located in arid and ultra arid climate and therefore recognition of limit of thermal comfort in this climate has multiplied importance.             For calculation of limit of thermal comfort, Yazd city was considered with arid and cold climate as the case study in this research. The limits of thermal comfort were reformed on the basis of the latitude of the study area. Then the limits of thermal comfort were calculated for warm and cold terms of the year according to the climatic data and field observation and on the basis of corrected diagram of Olgyay.        The obtained results show that thermal limit was assessed for summer condition 21.8 º - 27 º and for winter condition 20.4 º - 23 º and also optimum limit of relative humidity was assessed 18% -53%.        The proposed thermal and humidity limits, maintains proper internal conditions, reduces energy unsuitable consumption during of years   Manuscript profile

        Preventing nuclear war and avoiding catastrophic climate changes are two of the most fundamental challenges facing human civilization in this century. The purpose of this research is to investigate the effects of nuclear disarmament on climate change from the perspective of international law. This research focuses on the potential links between nuclear energy as an option to reduce climate change and nuclear disarmament and, respectively, discusses topics such as current nuclear risks, the scale of the nuclear-climate challenge, nuclear security and Its relationship with nuclear energy, non-proliferation and disarmament, management of nuclear disarmament and basic steps to address the challenges of proliferation and disarmament and the political links between maintaining and strengthening the global non-proliferation regime, nuclear disarmament and the growth of nuclear energy It has been done on a large scale. The use of nuclear energy places unprecedented demands on global systems for the verification, control and security of weapons-usable nuclear material. Reducing or abandoning or emptying many nuclear weapons and equipment and their final ban also requires new approaches to manage the huge global stockpile of weapons-usable nuclear materials. The international community should take measures so that nuclear energy can help reduce climate change in the long term. As a result of such actions, nuclear disarmament becomes more practical, desirable, and unattainable, and lays the foundations for a world in which nuclear technology contributes to sustainable development while nuclear weapons begin to fade from the scene.

        Climate change has been one of the main concerns of societies in the world during the last two decades. Hence, the international community has taken some measures to solve this problem. Such measures include developments of the UN Framework Convention on the Climate Change (UNFCCC) to maintain the current concentration levels of the green house gases in the atmosphere in order to minimize the anthropogenic impacts on the climate. The convention has envisioned common but different responsibilities for all parties. Iran is also a party to the Convention and has developed the Empowerment Plan of the Islamic Republic of Iran to meet its commitments with financial support of the Global Environmental Facilities (GEF) and the UNDP Office located in the Department of the Environment in Iran. In the present study, after reviewing climate change and green house phenomenon, the steps to form the UNFCCC, its goals and the commitments of member countries towards the Convention as well as its status in Iran, have been investigate. Although Iran has honored most of its commitments, the major drawbacks are weak regulations, lack of research and mismanagement of activities. The inadequate coordination amongst different sections of Iran and ineffective environmental laws are the major challenges to the implementation of the Climate Change Convention in Iran.

        Abstract Background and Objective: Recognizing the climatic potentias, as a basis for human activities, provides the predominant foundation for environmental and land use plannning. Most of the tourists follow climate considerations to choose the destination. The aim of this study was to evaluate and render the zoning of seasonal tourism at the northwest of Iran using tourism climatic index (T.C.I). Method: In this study, to assess the climatic conditions from the tourism perspective, the climatic data from 22 synoptic stations in the northwest Iran for a period of 20 years (1990-2010) were collected. In this model, a 7-parameter system was used. These parameters included mean maximum temperature, average temperature, average minimum relative humidity, mean relative humidity, total monthly precipitation, sunshine hours and daily average wind speed. The TCI index was used for data analysis and the tourism climate maps were drawn for four seasons using GIS. Findings: The results show that the TCI index has a large variety of topography in the northwest because of conflicts over the years. Summer with the conditions as infinite ideal: 7, ideal condition: 10, excellent quality: 3, acceptable: 1 and very good condition: 1 ranked the first among other three seasons. Autumn with the conditions as perfect: 4, very good: 11, good: 3 and acceptable: 4 ranked the second. Spring season with the spesifications as very good: 2, good: 2, acceptable: 11 and insignifcant: 7 ranked. Winter with the conditions as acceptable: 1, insignificant: 14, poor: 5 and very poor: 2 ranked the fourth place and the most unfavorable condition among the other seasons. Discussion and Conclusion: Northwest of Iran with great tourist attraction can be pioneer in local and foreign tourism. Beautiful scenery and unique and varied climate conditions in all seasons can greatly contribute to the development of this industry and lead to great benefits. Manuscript profile

        Background and Objective: Expired pesticides are a major problem in many countries. Thus, we need to know the effective factors in pesticides degradation to prevent environmental damage of them. In many cases restructuring or demolition costs of the expired pesticides are more than their primary production. Method: This study investigated the possibility of applying the expired pesticides stockpiles of agricultural supportive services company. Quality control tests were performed according to the FAO, CIPAC and pesticide manufacturers' guidelines. Results: The results were classified based on the different groups of pesticides, physical state of herbicides formulation, producing companies, date of production and location of warehouses. Data were analyzed by Chi-Square test, in case of significance. The risk test was performed to determine the relative risk for the variables using SPSS-18 software. Conclusion: Result showed a significant correlation between the time lagged after production of herbicides and degradation percentage of herbicides. The degradation percent of expired insecticides was highest and that of expiered herbicides and fungicides was at the second and third rank, respectively. The degradation percent of the expired herbicides formulated in the country was 52% and that of the expired herbicides formulated in India/China was 67%. The results show that 55% of the herbicides with liquid formulation and 26% of the herbicides with solid formulation were degraded.

        The lepidopterans Euzophera bigella (Zeller) (Pyralidae) and Cydia pomonella (L.) (Tortricidae) are the most important pests of quince trees in Iran, as they cause the qualitative and quantitative losses on quince fruits. The present study was performed to monitor the population fluctuations of E. bigella and L. pomonella using synthetic pheromone traps at quince orchards in Falavarjan (Isfahan, Iran). In addition, the influence of climatic factors on population fluctuations was studied. It was found that E. bigella adults appeared in early March, showing four population peaks during growth season. The adults of L. pomonella were, however, showed up in middle March with five seasonal population peaks. The populations of male E. bigella were positively correlated with relative humidity, weekly rainfall (up to 3.5 mm), weekly means of minimum and maximum relative humidity and temperature (higher than 25 °C). In addition, when rainfall was 1.2 mm, no significant effects of weekly means of minimum and maximum relative humidity and temperature were observed on E. bigella densities. The population densities of male E. bigella also showed a significant positive correlation (r = 0.58) with relative humidity. Manuscript profile

There are different methods for the use of climate models is the most reliable.Here in this research, climate change status in Dez river basin where a major basin for water and agricultural yields is studied. For this purpose, the PRECIS model was used. PRECIS is an exponential dynamics downscaling model used to estimate the temperature and precipitation rates for the period of 2070 to 2100 under A2 and B2 scenarios. According to the results of climate change assessment under scenario A2 for Dez river basin, precipitation would decrease up to 22% and up to 5 degrees centigrade would rise in average maximum and minimum temperature while concerning B2 scenario, a decrease in precipitation up to 33% and a rise in temperature rise up to 3°C are estimated.

         Floods are one of the most frequent and destructive natural disasters that cause severe financial and financial losses every year. Flood damage is on the rise due to human manipulation of river systems and river construction. In this regard, one of the most important non-structural measures to reduce flood damage is the preparation of flood risk zoning maps and their use in spatial planning. In this regard, the HEC-HMS model was used to simulate rainfall-runoff and identify flood zones and fuzzy logic was used to overlay the subject layers and prepare the flood line map. The simulation results show the high efficiency of HEC-HMS model in simulation of rainfall-runoff of Rudball catchment and estimation of peak flood discharges. The conversion of rainfall to runoff at the surface of the Rudball Basin is mainly controlled by geomorphometry and land cover. The highest peak runoff and peak flow rates are in the upstream sub-basins of the Rudball Basin. This is due to high slope, low soil permeability, abundance of impermeable surfaces and high CN. The combination of thematic layers using fuzzy logic showed that about 8.6% of the basin area was located in areas with high risk of flooding. These zones mainly correspond to the floodplain of the Rudbal River. These lands are always exposed to floods due to the low valley and low slope. Most of the settlements in the study area are located downstream of the basin. This has increased the risk of flooding. Manuscript profile

        Abstract Climate conditions is one of the most important and affecting factors on different aspects of life, especially the health and human comfort. In this study, using bioclimatic and Tourism indices including; Physiological Equivalent Temperature (PET) and Nervous Stress, climatic comfort of Hamedan province is evaluated. For each of the indicators, were used climatic parameters of the 9 meteorological stations in the province in 14-year period (2014- 2001). Then, different areas of the province have been evaluated in terms of above bioclimatic indices. The results show that different areas of the province have a large variety of climatic comfort during the year. Based on PET, in May (Malayer, Nahavand, Tuyserkan, Razan, Ghahavand and Famenin Stations), in September (Hamadan station) and in October (Asadabad, Famenin and Ghahavand) are under optimum climate conditions, and "non stress". Also, based on the Nervous Stress index; in June, Hamedan and Famenin stations and in July, all stations are in "warm and comfortable" condition. In August; Hamedan, Malayer, Nahavand and Razan stations are in "Comfortable" and the rest of the stations are in "warm and comfortable". In September; all stations are in the "cool" condition. In general, according to the above indicators examined in terms of climatic comfort, the best time in the province are May, September and October respectively. However, based on Nervous Stress index, comfort conditions provides only in August. During this period, in addition to the optimal climatic comfort, natural beauty across the province is also very favorable. Manuscript profile

        We witness cities high risk taking in recent years as a result of climate changes. Climate changes result in higher temperatures, rising sea levels, severe storms and increased droughts. However, reduced risk and vulnerability were ignored.  The research method is survey and its logic is inductive and its most important advantage is interoperability of the obtained results. The SPSS and Lisrel Software are used for data analysis and statistical tests and Arc GIS software were used in order to display spatial maps. In this study, spatial management institutions variable including institutions and stakeholders of Bonab city and surrounding villages management was considered as dependent and endogenous variable was measured and analyzed in thirteen dimensions based on Hyogo vision and Framework. The reduced risks of climate fluctuations were measured and analyzed in six dimensions in order to increase the region's resiliency as exogenous variable. Output calculations based on single-sample t-test (T) indicated that urban- regional management principles were unfavorable in the study area and generally in spatial management dimension. The casual network that is determined by structural equations is 2.32 based on X2 / DF value and since the obtained value is smaller than 3, it shows that the model fitness is appropriate. The root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) must be less than 0.08 that is equal to 0.063 in the proposed model. GFI (goodness of fit index) and (adjusted goodness of fit index) AGFI indices are equal to 0.91 and 0.90 respectively that must be greater than 0.80. The results of five indices are presented including increased comparative fit, relative fitness, Bentle Bonett normative fit, and Tucker-Lewis fit and comparative fit index based on data goodness of fit and structural model.

        Ornamental plants are one of the cheapest and most natural elements for air purification and pollution reduction. The ability of this type of plant species to absorb pollutants and purify the air is undeniable. Today, due to industrialization and technological progress, air and environmental pollution has become an important concern in developing countries. The purpose of this research is the effect of ornamental plant species in reducing pollution and purifying the air of sports venues. Pollutants that affect the cleanliness of sports places include: Benzene, Formaldehyde, Carbon Monoxide, Trichloroethylene, Ammonia, Fume and Xylene. Eight plant species include: English ivy (Hedera helix), Aloe vera, devil's ivy (Epipremnum aureum), dwarf date palm (Phoenix roebelenii), spider plant (Chlorphytum comosum), variegated snake plant (Sansevieria trifasciata 'Laurentii'), boston fern (Nephrolepis exaltata 'Bostoniensis') and bamboo palm (Chamaedorea seifrizii). In order to purify the air and reduce pollution, pollutants were investigated for air purification and reduction of pollutants in this research. According to the results of this research (P < 0.05), the necessary information to predict the correlation of air purification with different plant species statistically showed that, based on the model, eight studied plant species have a natural correlation with air purification and Sansevieria trifasciata has the greatest effect in reducing pollution and purifying the air of sports venues (Beta = 0.348, Value = 0.966). The results showed that in any part of the world, the studied plant species are among the most effective species in air purification, so they are suitable for streets, parks and sports places. It is suggested that by using the results of this research, the relevant officials and stakeholders should pay more attention and use the mentioned plants to improve the air quality of the city and sports facilities.

        In this research, we try to predict the yield of rainfed barley in Khorasan provinces using climatic parameters and two methods of artificial nervous netwework (Ann) and fuzzy neural system (Anfis). Calculations were performed with MATLAB software and then the statistical indices of correlation coefficient (R2), root mean square error (RMSE) and full mean error (MAE) were used to evaluate the performance of the models. Last year's yield and rainfall had an effective role in reducing prediction error and increasing correlation coefficient in both Ann and Anfis methods. Last year's yield and evapotranspiration made the Anfis method more accurate than the Ann method. The results of both Anfis and Ann methods for model L inputs, which included rainfall, relative humidity and last year's yield, showed that this model achieved the highest accuracy among the input models. However, in the Anfis method for model E inputs, which included evapotranspiration, rainfall, relative humidity and minimum temperature, the results showed that it was more accurate than the Ann method. The greatest difference in accuracy in estimating yield between the two Anfis and Ann methods was observed with R inputs model, which includes moisture inputs, Dew point temperatures and maximum temperatures. The presence of radiation parameters at the inputs reduced the accuracy of yield estimation in both methods. Overall, the Anfis method was more accurate in estimating yield than Ann.

        According to the Quranic criteria in the sixth verse of Surah An-Nisa, puberty is a natural phenomenon with the actualization of sexual talent and reproductive powers, which in jurisprudential and legal principles, girls reach the age of 9 years and boys reach the age of 15 as the beginning. The duty is considered to be religious, civil and criminal obligations and responsibilities. However, the willingness to accept the responsibilities and limitations of puberty for girls and boys of different races, diverse climates, as well as differences in community culture and social health status and other factors, is not the same. Setting a fixed standard for all of them seems inappropriate. Therefore, the researcher with the aim of re-reading the jurisprudential and legal principles in the category of maturity criteria, while paying attention to the audience of hadiths in the critique of jurisprudential citations to maturity narrations, the rate of maturity variable in heterogeneous climates according to field research and Measured and examined medical components. According to the results of the present study, girls and boys living in cold climates and weather conditions have reached puberty with a considerable delay of their kind in the warm regions of Siri and at an older age have a correct understanding of social responsibilities and duties.
