        In order to meet people's demands for sports and comply with sustainability laws, sports complexes should try to improve their organization's sustainability performance. The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of sustainability factors based on economic and social areas of sports complexes. This research is descriptive-survey and retrospective. The statistical population of sports complexes in the northeast of Tehran city with 48 sports complexes, 5 people from each complex and a total of 240 questionnaires were completed. The 2014 Lean Sustainable Supply Chain Management Standard Questionnaire was used. The Structural Equation Modeling (AMOS) method was used to examine the relationships between the variables. The results showed that the economic dimension of supply chain dimensions has the greatest impact on the variable of operational performance of sports complexes in Tehran. The coefficient of economic impact on the environment is 0.89 and the coefficient of economic impact on the social dimension is 0.77. In fact, the economic field is the most important field in the sustainability of sports complexes. Therefore, sustainability leads to the improvement of economic performance and to some extent environmental performance, it can be suggested Managers should pay more attention to the economic dimension to discuss the sustainability of their organizations.

        Medicine, as a basic and fundamental component in the treatment and cure of diseases, has always had a privileged position in the strategic plans of governments, and in the light of that, on the one hand, progressive countries and large pharmaceutical companies in the world have their political and economic interests over treatment. Patients in need have concentrated and despite the availability of medicine, for various reasons some of the world's people are unable to obtain the medicines they need, and on the other hand, profit seekers and the international drug mafia are trying to dominate the medicine distribution system in different countries. They are different. One of the tasks of the governments and those in charge of the pharmaceutical affairs of the country is to provide the health, treatment and pharmaceutical needs of different members of the society. Is. Success in this sector depends on various factors, including: the existence of clear, precise and comprehensive laws and regulations that are in line with the existing conditions and the power of the country's executive forces. The existence of a structure appropriate to the existing situation of different parts of the country so that the laws can be implemented in a correct and precise manner. Existence of caring, experienced and motivated forces, far away from financial concerns, to implement the developed policies well. If a part of this process is defective and inefficient, it will cause problems to other parts and the overall goals will fail. In the current research, the author intends to focus on medicine and describe the system that governs it, to deal with the issue of crimes related to medicine and treatment from the point of view of legislators, executive directors and investigating judges with the aim of identifying existing problems and obstacles.

        The purpose of this research is to evaluate and measure the efficiency of the yard space with an emphasis on the concept of functional radius in different types of traditional Iranian houses (Kashan & Esfehan). In reviewing the relative depth of sink function, it is necessary to convert the quantitative data of the plan into quantitative data... In the physical composition of each home, spaces are divided into two categories: "service spaces" and "service spaces", where the combination of spaces together has a direct relationship with the function of the service provider or service provider. The layout model of the spaces of each home expresses the particular type of spatial relationships of that house, which is sometimes unique in buildings, and sometimes with a stable pattern, in the spatial relationship of the houses jointly observed. The purpose of this article is to examine the performance of the yard in a variety of Iranian house patterns, which is based on the definition of the functional radius of the yard in different patterns of the house. In order to test the above process, three different models of a gull, two gullies and three gullies in Kashan and three samples with the mentioned characteristics in Yazd were selected as case samples. In this research, in order to determine the functional efficiency of space, justification graphs and syntactical maths are used. Different parts of the house, like many other spaces, have spatial priorities and special rankings for better service and therefore a good performance. In the physical composition of each home, spaces are divided into two parts: "Service spaces" and "Service spaces", where the combination of spaces together has a direct relationship with the function of the service provider or service provider. The layout model of the spaces of each home expresses the particular type of spatial relationships of that house, which is sometimes unique in buildings, and sometimes with a stable pattern, in the spatial relationship of houses is seen jointly. The purpose of this article is to examine the performance of the yard in a variety of Iranian house patterns, which is based on the definition of the functional radius of the yard in different patterns of the house. In order to test the above process, three different models of a gull, two gullies and three gullies in Kashan and three samples with the mentioned characteristics in Yazd were selected as case samples. In this research, in order to determine the functional efficiency of space, justification graphs and syntactical maths are used. Accordingly, the research question in relation to the research goal is as follows:How does changing the functional radius in space increase or decrease the efficiency of the yard in the Iranian home?Accordingly, the hypothesis on the answer to the research question is as follows:The greater the functional radius of a space in the configuration of the building, the effective radius and the sphere of influence of that space decrease, and thus the efficiency of the space increases.

        Introduction:In this study, by examining the impact of individual, organizational, authentic leadershipand psychological characteristics, a model for virtue in health area accounting by emphasizing the mediating role of ethical development is presented. Methods:For this study, theme analysis and standard questionnaires were used. The statistical population is focused on financial managers, budget and their deputies and finance chiefs of Iran university of medical sciences (N=897) in the year 2019, out of which 269 questionnaires were collected and tested through structural equation modeling in AMOS software. Results: We showed that personality characteristics with a significant level (0.039), authentic leadership characteristics including self-awareness, communication transparency, internalized ethical perspective and balanced information processing, (0.015) and psychological characteristics including reward mechanisms and moral intelligence (0.013), through mediating variable of ethical development, lead to virtue (positive and meaningful) in health area accounting. In addition, organizational characteristics (job satisfaction, employment relationship, organizational responsibility, and type of service) and psychological characteristics (quadratic dark personality traits, five personality traits, and religious orientation) do not lead to virtue in health area accounting through the mediating variable of ethical development. Also according to the fit indices, the developed model has favorable fit. Conclusion: Special attention is paid to individual, authentic leadership and psychological characteristics in fostering the ethical behavior of employees and the need for policymakers to focus on enhancing these characteristics in drafting professional ethics codes.

        Climate change is one of the most important challenges that influening natural ecosystems and have different effects on precipitation, temperature, intensity and frequency of droughts and floods and hydrological parameters of watersheds. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of climate change on the trend of changes in temperature, precipitation and solar radiation and also to determine the effect of changes in these variables on the recharge of the Karaj watershed. In this study first using the outputs of the two HadCM3 and CGCM1 global models, and using SDSM micro-scale model, climatic variables were simulated for three decades (2010- 2039, 2040-2069 and 2070-2098). In the next step, using HELP model, the rate of groundwater recharge was estimated and the effect of changing these variables on the amount of natural recharge was investigated. Also the results showed that this model is highly sensitive to evapotranspiration. Result of simulating climatic variables under A2 climate change scenario show that in future decades, amount of temperature, precipitation and solar radiation will be increase (1.5, 2.8 and 4.55 percent), decrease (8.1, 15.1 and 18 percent) and increase (0.5, 1.4 and 2.4 percent), respectively. Result of simulating the amount of groundwater recharge using model under A2 climate change scenario show that in future decades, amount of groundwater recharge will be decrease (9.6, 15.1 and 15.6 percent). Also research result show that HELP model is highly sensitive to evapotranspiration amount.   Manuscript profile

        From the perspective of urban planning and management, the criteria for the distribution of parks, in terms of the scope of influence and the benefits of the surrounding areas, is of particular importance. The main purpose of this study; Determining and evaluating the influence area of each type of urban parks in Tabriz. The map of urban parks was produced based on updating the land use map extracted from the detailed plan of Tabriz using satellite imagery and fieldworks in a combined method. Then the map of Tabriz city parks according to their area were prepared in 5 categories of parks; Mini, Neighborhood, Regional, Community and Mountain parks and the influence radius of each park was applied in GIS as a buffer based on internal research. The results showed that none of the ten districts of Tabriz Municipality are desirable in terms of covering the influence of "neighborhood" parks and the need to develop this type of parks in the whole city is serious. District 1, 2 and 8 are in a good position to cover the area of ​​influence area of "Regional" parks. Most districts, except 9 and 5, are covered by "Community" parks. "Mountain" parks cover almost all the ten districts of Tabriz and district 1 is in the best condition in terms of being within the influence area of all types of parks. In terms of social and psychological functions of parks, although the existence of Metropolitan parks is necessary to attract large local populations and tourists, but the great impact of "Mini" and "Neighborhood" parks in addition to ecological functions, in family entertainment and ultimately increase social vitality should not be ignored.

        Changes in the land-use pattern has affected hydrological processes in the watersheds and disrupted the natural balance of water flow. In the present study, changes in hydrological components of Amameh watershed as a result of land-use changes from1988 - 2013 were studied. Due to lack of the land-use map in past years, the land-use map was prepared and analyzed by Landsat TM satellite images in the ERDAS Imagine software in 1988. Furthermore, the available ‎information were used to provide land-use map ‎in 2013. Land-use maps of 1988 - 2013 were prepared using ArcGIS software. In existing maps, six land-use classes; class 1, 2, and 3 rangelands, agricultural and ‎garden, arid land, and river-bed were designed. ‎ The results showed that Amameh watershed was affected by severe changes in the land-use‎ during the study period, so that the class 1 rangelands‎ to class 2, class 2 to class 3, and even arid‎ land were changed. In addition, the residential areas (villa) were increased from 2.5% in 1988 to 8.4 in 2013. The HEC-HMS model was used to investigate the effect of land-use changes on the hydrological flood hydrograph of Amameh watershed‎. The results of hydrograph study of 1988 and 2013 showed the volume increase of runoff and peak discharge rates during the 25-year period, and also the watershed runoff coefficient was increased from 0.82 to 0.89.

        The watershed of Hassanrobat which is located in Meimeh in Isfahan province, is studied in current research in order to construct Gabion Dams. Experts suggest the location of dams' in water channels based on economical reasons as a priority for locating dam. Spatial Multi Criteria Evaluation is employed to determine critical position of the dam in watershed area. All the maps of key factors divided into two groups and were entered the SMCE as limitation factors. Therefore it is needed to standardize the factors such as slope and rainfall with fuzzy model. However, other ones (vegetation, roads, villages, springs and wells) standardized by Cast method. The two remaining maps: land use and geology standardized based on experts suggestion. Eventually, weighted the factors of first group while, the second group are weighted by hierarchy in order to product of the final map that show the priorities to construct Gabion dams in the region. Obviously, natural factors affect the final choice as well as economy of the region. This study proposes mentioned location to related planners since soil erosion would significantly decrease after dam constructed. Manuscript profile

        Erosion such as landslide is phenomenon that causes wasting of many water and soil resources and destructing natural resources. The objective is landslide hazard mapping. Landslide can be the main source for sediment supply. The region was Chelgerd watershed in Shahrekord. For landslide hazard mapping, information layers including slope, elevation lithology, land use, distance to road, distance to stream, distance to fault and to springs as effective parameters of landslide have been recognized and digitized. After fuzzy standardizing of constraints and factors by methods fuzzy and Boolean weighing factors using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was incorporated. Final phase, landslide hazard zonation map was prepared. Results show that 49 percent of studied land are high and very high risk zones located. In this study, the most landslides occur in 500 meters from road and 400 meters from Stream with dip ranging from 15 to 50 percent at the elevation of 2600 meters moreover, agricultural lands and gardens within Khankat and Neyriz formation contain the most landslides. Since the possibility of landslide in the vicinity of roads and Stream, with medium dip is very high. It is necessary to be considered in managing of the area. Manuscript profile

        Religion and religious beliefs are always one of the criteria for distinguishing between geographical spaces and the type of religious beliefs and beliefs of any geographic region is an effective factor in the formation of different structures in that area. Religion as a cultural element is the source of change, difference, and contrasts in different places, and perhaps on this basis some evident religious and religious challenges, such as the promotion of extremism in the geography of the Islamic world, can also be considered in this process. This research utilizes the information obtained from library resources and, to a certain extent, the field of research and the use of analytical-descriptive methods, while clarifying the relevant concepts, by specifying the question of which religious beliefs affect the security of geographical spaces? Has examined the impact of this component on the security of the Central Asian territory and, finally, has proved the role of religious beliefs as one of the factors influencing the security of geographical spaces by expressing a direct relationship between these two categories.

        Geography of election is a field of geography with background in European countries from mid of 1910s. Later this field was expanded in 1960s along with little revolution in USA. Geography of election considers condition before and after election; on the other words, it analyzes actors of election through spatial point of view. One of the fields for study on geography of election is study on spatial-local condition of ballot-boxes before election; it was tried in this study to analyze 15th district of Tehran municipality using GIS for 2 cases: first case is relationship between demographic zones and quantity of ballot-boxes and second case is way of access to hospital and clinic in case when unexpected accident is occurred. 15th district of Tehran is one of the 22-fold districts of Tehran metropolitan, located in southeastern of Tehran at entrance gate of old Khorasan road. According to predictions of a universal plan, population of this district will be 942400 people in 2021. Therefore, 15th district is one of the important demographic centers. In regard to such condition, spatial-local analyze of GIS maps is considered in this research which accordingly, relationship between population and quantity of ballot-boxes in districts is not suitable; actually ballot-bases of district is not distributed proportionally considering current population in its areas. Moreover, positions of local hospital, firefighting stations as well as clinics existing in this district are considered in relation to ballot-bases. Condition of mentioned district’s access networks is interested and findings are shown lack of a planned systematic network. Manuscript profile

        The resilience of social-ecological systems to environmental changes such as climate change requires the guarantee of environmental systems such as water supply systems and human resources such as resource governance systems and stakeholder participation. In Iran, the International Carbon Sequestration Project, in cooperation, was initially launched in 2005 with the aim of preventing the phenomenon of desertification. Therefore, in this study, the local communities of the three target areas of this project, including Khatam, Jajarm and Oghan watershed of Galikesh and the impact of the project on the broaden of stakeholder participation were examined. For this purpose, two villages from each region were selected by simple random sampling and a questionnaire measuring the broaden participation among farmers and ranchers in the target villages was completed. The results showed that the implementation of carbon sequestration plan in the three study areas in the five dimensions studied did not increase the broaden participation to an acceptable level. Also, the comparison of the performance of the three regions showed that in Jajarm, the weakest performance and in Galikesh, the best performance has been done in order to expand the participation of stakeholders. Indicators of broaden participation were acceptable only in Ogan watershed and Khatam in 14 out of 90 possible cases. As a result, transparency of goals and expectations, presence and involvement of stakeholders, facilitation, and leadership, capacity building, power, and sourcing in all aspects of social, economic, organizational, infrastructure, and social capital have not performed well. Therefore, the resilience of ecosystem services in the three study areas will be jeopardized due to the lack of expansion of stakeholder participation. Manuscript profile

        Soil resource conservation requires management approaches and provides appropriate solutions that can be achieved by knowing nature of rock units and relative importance of main sediment sources. The aim of this study is to determine hole of each lithological unit in sediment generation and to recognize their erosion conditions. For this purpose after sampling the sediment source and sediments of waterways of Kiov-chai Watershed, grading was performed for all samples by dry sieving. Then, 600 micron and 4 mm sieves were selected as indicators and by choosing 100 grains of sediment from each sample, mineralogical analysis was performed using a pair of binocular and considering mineral and rock fragments the results were compared with and adapted to the lithological units and the share percentage of each stone, was determined by counting the number of minerals and rock fragments. The results showed, Qvl lithological unit has the highest share in sediment yield with a 45.51 percent and has the very severe erosion status with total erosion index score with a 1053.14 which can be justified completely due to extensive degradation and its spread on both sides of the main river. After Qvl lithological unit, Qds2 and Qvb lithological units have the highest share in sediment yield with a 30.87 and 10.54 percent, respectively and Qtasllithological unit has the lowest share in sediment yield with a 45.51 percent.

        River basin planning is an essential factor for sustainable development and land management. Therefore, sub-basins prioritizing and detecting morphometrically characteristics to identify the hydrological behaviors of watersheds and designing management strategies are very important. The aim of present study is to prioritize the flooding of the basin by distributional method and provide a method for determining the flood generating areas in the Tangrah watershed. To this end, the inputs of the rainfall-runoff model were extracted and then the model was calibrated and validated. For this purpose, the inputs of the rainfall-runoff model were extracted and then modclark model calibrated and validated. In the next step, in order to determine the flooding of homogeneous units and sub-basins with unit flood response method, sequential removal and replacement of these units and simulation of flood hydrographs for designed rainfall were carried out at the Golestan National Park's rain gauge station. Then the effect of each homogeneous unit and sub-basin on the total output hydrograph in the watershed was calculated. Finally, for a flood with a return period of 50 years and 100 years for non-statistical watersheds, a correlated multivariable correlation between morphometric parameters and flood index was presented. The results of the potential runoff production map with the return period of 50 and 100 years showed that the runoff production potential was upward downstream of the basin, and the homogeneous unit 116 was recognized as the most effective unit in the high runoff potential, which is due to more rainfall as well as The steep slope and high (CN) in this homogeneous unit, the runoff production potential is nearer the outlet of the basin than the upstream areas. The results of this study showed that by integrating the GIS and hydrologic models, we can investigate the interaction of physiographic and climatic factors on the spill potential of watersheds.

        In this research, the data of the machine hydrometric station was used in the Rood Zard watershed with a statistical period of 36 years (1977-2012). In order to reduce time and cost, pre-processing of input data into the GEP model was obtained using gamma test method and entered the GEP model along with non-preprocessing combinations of the test and error method. The results of comparison between all models showed that the best combination of input variable from gamma test with the lowest standard error is zero, gamma statistic is 0.000092 and Vratio statistic is 0.012 and the combination of variables including average daily flow discharge with two steps of time delay and average daily precipitation with three steps of time delay, had the most accurate and correct estimate for suspended sediment load. This model had the lowest value of RMSE=1671.90 (ton/day) and MAE=475.68 (ton/day) and the highest value of R2=0.99 and NSE=0.99 compared to other models. Therefore, the use of gamma test method as a data preprocessing method, by selecting combinations of appropriate input variables to models, an average of up to 40% of the estimated error (RMSE) of daily suspended sediment load compared to the inputs from the test and reduce the error and increase the performance of the GEP model in estimating the suspended sediment load by increasing the similarity between the values of observational data with computational data.

        One of the major challenges affecting the natural ecosystems and various aspects of human life is climate change. The effects of global warming on the hydrology and water cycle in nature are very serious, and the quantitative recognition of these effects creates more readiness to deal with its consequences. In the present study, the black box model (artificial neural network) and the semi-distributed model (SWAT) were selected and examined according to error and uncertainty. This paper employed the large-scale model (CanESM2) under scenarios RCP2.6 and RCP8.5 to investigate the effect of climate change. The results of climate change in this study showed that runoff (3-59%) and temperature (1.53-6.93 °C) have an increasing trend. In particular, this increasing trend is further exhibited by extreme values and severe floods. Also, the amount of runoff will increase by 7-11% in the upcoming period. For this reason, it is necessary to pay attention in urban studies to the increase of flood occurrence in the future. Manuscript profile

        Introduction and Aim: Ecosystems nowadays play a unique role in meeting human demands and offering a variety of services to their stakeholders. However, occurrence of various happening, including population increase and rising demand for basic human requirements, have created problems for Ecosystem Services (ES). As a result, land degradation is a significant environmental issue that is impacted by a variety of elements and factors. Soil conservation and erosion prevention can benefit from management and conservation measures, as well as the development of plant cover in a watershed. Therefore, an effort has been made in this study to assess how the Sharghong Watershed in Southern Khorasan, Iran, and its biological and management activities affect soil erosion at various rainfall intensities. Method: The Sharghong Watershed, with an area of 94.87 km2, is located in Birjand Township, South Khorasan Province, Iran. The mean annual precipitation in the watershed is approximately 210 mm. Due to its steep slopes in the eastern and southeastern parts, the presence of residential areas and barberry orchards in the floodplain, and intense precipitation in the spring, the Sharghong Watershed has a good potential for flooding. for evaluating. The role of biological restoration operations in soil erosion processes in study watershed InVEST Model was used. Annual precipitation data from the Qaen, Birjand, Mousavieh, and Mansourabad stations were utilized for the period between 2002 and 2020, with return periods of 2, 5, 10, and 50 years, to generate the inputs for the InVEST model. The erosivity, erodibility, crop management and land maintenance factor were then determined. Results: The maximum rainfall erosivity index (R) values for return periods of 2, 5, 10, and 50 years were 47.08, 63.68, 85.01, and 98.94 MJ mm ha-1h-1, respectively. The minimum values of R for the same return periods were 42.88, 56.68, 74.47, and 85.85 MJ mm ha-1h-1, respectively. The annual sediment yield for return periods of 2, 5, 10, and 50 years were 6699.27, 9024.56, 17452.27, and 20862.30 t, respectively. Following the implementation of the management scenario in different sub-watersheds, sediment yield reached 6439.39, 8668.37, 16892.94, and 17390.87 t, respectively. The obtained results indicated reductions of 3.9, 3.9, 3.2, and 1.7%, respectively, for return periods of 2, 5, 10, and 50 years. Conclusion: In this research, the role of biological management in controlling erosion and sedimentation in the Sharghonj Watershed during the different return periods of rainfall has been evaluated. The results of the research indicate that with the increase in the intensity of rainfall, in the current land use, the amount of erosion and sedimentation has increased, but with the application of management scenarios at the level of different sub-catchment, erosion and sedimentation has slightly decreased during the different return periods of rainfall. Due to the fact that the intensity of rainfall in the region plays an important role in creating erosion and its effect is intensified by the combination of sloping lands, the principled use of land in accordance with its potential can play an effective role in preventing land degradation. Therefore, the approaches of this research can be beneficial for providing a suitable management model for managers, operators and beneficiaries of watersheds.  Manuscript profile

        Determining flood producing regions and sub-basins flood producing priorities are considered very important in the management of large watersheds. In this paper the flood routing role in separating and determining flood producing regions in the Bostan dam watershed of Golestan province in northern Iran after discharge routing of sub-basins in main waterways up to the main outlet of watershed was studied. For achieving the above goal, geographical information system (GIS), a hydrological model (HEC-HMS) and individual iterative elimination of sub-basins was used to calculate related hydrographs with design precipitation for each sub-basin. With consecutive elimination of sub-basins in each run of the model, the total discharge from whole watershed basin after flood routing in main waterways with considering the eliminated sub-basin was calculated; therefore effect of each sub-basin in flood producing capacity at the main outlet was determined. The sub-basin, with highest contribution in producing watershed outlet flood was recognized as most producing flood sub-basin. Then other sub-basins were ranked according to their quantitative share in producing flood discharge at outlet. Flood routing in waterways showed that contribution rate of sub-basins in outlet flood was not proportional with peak discharge of sub-basins and those sub basins with higher discharge do not necessarily have the highest contribution in basin's outlet flood, since waterways parameters of routing and the spatial location of sub-basins can change the contribution status. In order to eliminate the area effect in sub-basin ranking, the degree of influence of every sub-basin unit in the outlet flood was calculated, which changed the flood producing ranking of sub-basins. Finally with respect to the obtained results, required management guidelines were suggested. Manuscript profile

        Introduction: Land cover and its configuration in the landscape are crucial components in the provision of biodiversity and ecosystem services. Hyrcanian forests have a long history (arising in the Jurassic Period) and are among the world's most valuable forests; the decline in the Hyrcanian forests is one of the most serious problems of recent years. Material & Method: This study aims at comparing multi-temporal land use and landscape pattern analysis using satellite images from 1984, 2001 and 2010. Land use and spatial structures were predicted for future time horizons in the Tajan Watershed by land change modeler (LCM). Also, the landscape patterns were calculated by FRAGSTATS 4.2. Result & Discussion: The results show that forest was the dominant land cover (72% of area in 1984 and 46% in 2040) in the study area. The total area of forest was 8/4 times higher than the agriculture land cover in 1984 and 1.8 times in 2040. The Largest patch Index (LPI) shows forest lands as dominant cover in the whole period. Also proximity index (PROX) in agriculture and pasture land use increase during 1984 to 2040. The Edge density (ED) will increase in the future for three land uses. The edge density will increase at forest land use from 2010 to 2040. An informed vision on past, present and future forest area dynamics may help guide and prioritize international decisions aimed at reducing forest loss. Manuscript profile

        Background and Objectives: Study area of this study is Gadarchay Catchment (Part of Urmia Basin) that has been affected by the agricultural and industrial activities as well as population points. In this study, quality and pollution of Gadarchay Catchment Using Iran Water Quality Index and WRASTIC Vulnerability Model has­ been investigated to improve water quality, preventing of pollution and reducing pollution load by using management mitigation plans. Method: After collecting the history of study and completing the information, the catchment area have been assigned and divided to eight zones. Then sampling stations have been chosen by some criterions and sampling program have been started seasonally and the water quality index using IRWQISC have been estimated. Findings: The quality of rivers was in partly bad to partly good. The vulnerability of the catchment area has been calculated 59 that show the high sensitivity of the river catchment area. Availability of pollutants in the study area for example fisheries, bird houses, slaughter house, industrial areas and urban and rural areas by the river and discharge of waste water, causes wide pollution in river specially in mid-zone and downstream of the catchment area. These pollutants are increasing due to the growth of population and industrial and agricultural development. Discussion and Conclusion: For improvement of water quality and preventing of pollution, management mitigation plans are used and proposed plans including one structural plan, four non-structural plans and two joint plans are planned. Also it’s useful to detect pollutant sources and quality conservation acts and pollution control in case of monitoring of water quality projects and reforming the existing water­­ quality monitoring.

        Background and Objectives:  Human activities change land cover at unprecedented speeds and large spatial scales. The rapid changes in ecosystems in recent decades have been more along all the human history and have led to unprecedented changes in ecosystems and environmental performance at local, regional and global scales. This research aims to investigate the process of landscape quantitative changes in Gharesou and Mereg watersheds. Investigation method: For monitoring changes, Landsat satellite imagery of 1984 (TM), 2000 (ETM+) and 2016 (OLI-TIRS) were used. The classification was performed using Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model. Land cover was classified into seven categories. Metrics PLAND, NP (Number of Patch), PD (Patch Density), and ED (Edge Density) at the Level of Class, NP, LPI (Largest Patch Index), CONTAG (Contagion), and SHDI (Shannon's diversity index) were calculated at the level of Landscape for the study area. Results: The results indicate that the highest percentage of the land cover belongs to agricultural lands and then medium rangelands. The numbers of patches of agricultural land in the period of 1984-2004 has increased due to the conversion of rangelands to agricultural lands and then between years 2000-2016 have decreased due to the conversion to medium ranges with a lesser rate. The number of forest patches in the first period has decreased because of conversion to medium rangelands and increased during the second period. Conclusion: The study of the landscape metrics indicates the increase in continuity, the reduction of fragmentation and diversity in the first time period, and in contrast, in the second time period, continuity has decreased and fragmentation and diversity have increased. Given the fact that the process of landscape changes varies over two different periods, it can generally be noted that the fragmentation and diversity of the landscape have declined and the spatial continuity has increased.

        Background and Objective: Due to the natural forests degradation rate, increasing human population and increasing need to ecosystem services, forest development and afforestation process will be unavoidable. In this respect, before any implementation of afforestation project, site selection of suitable areas and evaluation of ecological potential should be considered. This research has been done with the aim of evaluating the ecological potential of Arangeh watershed located in Alborz province and locating suitable areas for afforestation.  Methods: According to the purpose of the study, in order to evaluate the ecological potential, effective environmental criteria including physical factors (physiography, climate and soil) and biological factors (vegetation) were identified. Then, area information was collected, including reports and data, as well as maps were produced. In the next step, by stacking and combining the information layers, homogeneous units were produced. Using Boolean logic, lands with absolute and permanent constraints were removed from the evaluation process and finally 108 unrestricted units were identified for evaluation. Then, the weights of the main indicators were determined using the AHP method (pairwise comparisons) and expert opinions. Qualitative values ​​The main indices were converted to quantitative scale using the bipolar distance method and then the final value of each homogeneous unit was calculated by the SAW method. Results: In this study, land potentials for afforestation in three categories including: excellent (9/5 ha), good (1015/9 ha), and average (578/5 ha) were determined and finally an ecological potential map for the development of forest was produced. Discussion & conclusion: It can be concluded that, in 15% of the area, there is potential for afforestation, that ecological potential has relatively suitable conditions in these areas.

        Background and Objective: Brown bear (Ursus Arctos) is classified as a Least Concern (LC) species of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), but its population and distribution have decreased during last decades. This study was carried out to assess the habitat suitability for Brown bear and the effective factors affecting its distribution in Naposhteh-Chai watershed. Method: Maximum Entropy (MaxEnt) approach available in MaxEnt software was used for the habitat suitability modeling of this species from autumn 2015 to autumn 2016. Information layers determined as affecting variables on this species include the slope, aspect, elevation, land use, water resources, human development variables (villages and roads) and climate. Findings: Results showed that 24.4 percent of Naposhteh-Chai watershed were suitable for Brown bear. Based on habitat suitability map, Brown bear preferred elevation range of 1000 to 2100 meters and slope of 10 to 60 percent. Furthermore, existing of densed forests, farmlands, water sources, villages and also aspect and climate, are important factors in the presence of this species. Discussion and Conclusion: Results of model evaluation using the area under the curve (ROC= 0.970) showed that prediction of this model are much more accurate than random conditions. Brown bear suitable integrated habitats, are located in Makidi, Oskolu, Naposhteh and Bala Sang areas. Prevention of tourism development in the suitable habitats of Brown bear, and, determination of corridors and movement routs of the species outside of the Naposhteh-Chai watershed in future studies were suggested in the route of this research.

        Background and Objective: According to the concept of desertification, which is land degradation in dry areas, the semi-arid, and dry sub-humid due to many factors such as climate change and human activities, this phenomenon has long been known as a serious problem in terms of economic, social, and environmental in many countries. The purpose of this study was to study the desertification of Faryab city in southern Kerman province using Iranian IMDPA method. Method:The aim of this study was assessed desertification potential of Faryab region in the arid region of south of Kerman province by using the Iranian model of desertification potential assessment (IMDPA) on soil and vegetation cover indicators.Each criterion was assessed based on the selected indices which result in qualitative mapping of each criterion cased on geometric average of the indices. Thematic databases, with a scale of 1:50000 were integrated and elaborated in Arc GIS 9.3. By laminate of thematic databases layers and using this formula DM=(VQI×SQI)1/2 to Calculate the geometric mean Criteria. Then Desertification intensity map was obtained with analysis IMDPA Model. Findings: Results indicated that 14.53% of study area classified as low class, 33.69% is classified as moderate class and 51.78% of area classified as a severe class of desertification. Analysis of desertification criteria in Faryab region showed that among study criteria, regeneration of vegetation of vegetation cover is a major problem with a geometric average of 3.82. Discussion and Conclusion: According to the results of this research, which indicates the importance of vegetation in desertification, it is suggested that a deeper investigation of the appropriate methods of remediation and improvement of the rangelands of the region be undertaken by the Natural Resources Department. In the case of lack of attention from the authorities, about 50% of other (medium and low desertification classes) will be subject to severe destruction, which will lead to damage to other elements of the ecosystem, including wildlife, and so on.   Manuscript profile

        Background and Objective: Groundwater dams are structures that have the ability to block subcortical water, retain water in local aquifers or divert water to adjacent aquifers, raise groundwater levels, store and make available groundwater. Taking into account the environmental and socio-economic benefits of underground dams, proper location is the first step in the construction of these dams. New and innovative methods for correct location reduce the risks associated with improper location and construction of underground dams. For this purpose, in this research, through the use of multi-criteria decision-making methods along with the high capabilities of ArcGIS software, suitable location of underground dams in the eastern part of Gorganrood watershed in Golestan province has been done. Method: Criteria were considered including slope, drainage, geology, topography, land use, fault, soil texture, and positions of village. The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is used to weighting the criteria. Then the TOPSIS technique is used to integrate criteria maps and locating underground dams. Findings: A consistency rate of 0.03, showed a relatively high accuracy of weighting process. Considering the normal weights, slope and positions of village were found to be the most and the least effective criteria, respectively. The results showed that the study area is classified into four categories for constructing underground dams: very suitable, suitable, partly suitable and unsuitable. The unsuitable category has the highest percentage of the surface area (76.7 percent) and the very suitable category has the lowest percentage of the surface area (2.1 percent). Discussion and Conclusion: In conclusion, with considering high capacities of multiple-criteria decision-making methods and GIS in locating underground dams, as expert opinions are more accurate and data are newer and it is more possible to get better results from these techniques and tools.

        Background and Objective: Grazing as one of ecological disturbances causes changes in soil characteristics of rangelands. This study was carried out to study the effect of Grazed pasture on plant cover, microbial deposits and some soil characteristics of Gonbad in Hamedan. Method: Five transects of 1000 meters were considered separately for soil characteristics in each region (grazed and ungrazed). Systematic sampling of soil was performed every 100 meters in May 2016. The elements of Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Mn and Zn were measured by atomic absorption spectrometer, acidity with pH meter, bulk density from clavicle method, total nitrogen from Kjeldahl method, organic carbon and soil organic matter by the oxidation method of Walkybak and Zeitous Carbon microbial was calculated by quenching-extraction method. Findings: After analyzing, it was determined that the concentrations of K and Zn in the soil of the sample area and the concentration of Mg in the soil of the control area increased significantly at 5% level. Soil acidity in the control area increased from 7/1 in the sample area to 7/23. Soil moisture content decreased significantly in the control area and from 27.11% in the sample area reached 18.12%. Soil bulk density in the control area was 1.16 g / cm3, which decreased significantly in the sample area and reached 0.98 g / g / cm3. The carbon microbial biomass was significantly differed in the soil of grazed and control areas.

        Background and Objective: In the present time, land use changes are being conducted without clear and logical programming or regarding the environmental effects of the changes. Because land use changes occur in a large scale, remote sensing technique is a useful and valuable tool for monitoring the changes. The aim of this research is investigation of the effects of land cover changes on rangelands of Ghoorichay chatchment located in the north of Ardabil province using remote sensing technique.Material and Methodology: In this investigation, TM images for year 1987, ETM images for year 2001 and OLI-TIRS images for year 2015 were collected and analyzed. After image pre-processing enhancements and corrections, the images were classified using maximum likelihood supervised classification method. Then, considering study area features, the images were classified into four land cover classes: dry land, range land, bare land and village. Moreover, NDVI index and slope layer were used to increase classification accuracy. At last, land cover changes and their effects on the range lands were detected. Overall accuracies and kappa coefficient were evaluated.Findings: According to the results, during the studied period, 5885 hectare (49.7%) of study area had changed. The most land cover changes were related to range land with intensive decrease of 2540 hectares (21.4%) which was changed into bare land and dry land.Discussion and Conclusion: Additional information such as slope layer and NDVI index in assistant with supervised classification of satellite images can increase the accuracy of image classification to provide land cover maps.

        Background and Objective: Land Use and Land Cover change is one of the most important factors affecting natural resources and at a worldwide scale. Analyzing and monitoring the Changes is a complex procedure. The analysis of landscape pattern as an important procedure helps researchers to realize and quantify LULC changes of the earth surface. The ability to quantify to describe landscape structure is prerequisite to the study of landscape function and change. Landscape ecology has various quantitative indices to analyze and describe the landscape structure for this purpose. Landscape metrics represent the spatial pattern of the entire landscape mosaic e.g. the proportion of each landscape type, or the shape of the component landscape elements at a set point in time. Material and Methodology: This study applied supervised classification-maximum likelihood in IDRISI Selva to detect land cover/land use changes observed in Shirin dare watershed using satellite data obtained from Landsat for the years 1996, 2005 and 2015 respectively. The watershed was classified into six major land cover/use classes viz based on our purpose. Various class-level and landscape level-landscape pattern metrics were calculated using Fragstats 4.2 in order to analyze landscape structure. Metrics include NP, MPS, LPI, SIDI, SHDI, SHEI and SIEI were used in this study. These metrics can give us a lot of information about the structure and changes of landscape components. Findings: The overall classification accuracies in land use cartographies in 1996, 2005 and 2015 were 92.96%, 87.29% and 87/45%, respectively. Our results between 2005 and 2015 were clearly showed that increased number of patches and decreased mean patch area two important fragmentation indicators and the trend of landscape degradation and fragmentation was increasing. Discussion and Conclusion: According to the current patterns of dry farm land and barren land development in the studied landscape and in order to reduce the alarming rates of land degradation and become more efficient land use managers, it is necessary to know the causes of land changes. That means with the ongoing land degradation trend, a reasonable land use plan should be made with emphasis on protecting natural forests, grasslands and the water body. Manuscript profile

          Introduction: Iran is located in one of the driest land regions of the world, where water is a limiting factor for lasting life, therefore using seasonal floodwaters is very important in arid and semi arid regions. On the other hand special attention has been paid to artificial groundwater recharge in these regions. Floodwater spreading on the permeable terrain is one of the flooding control way and utilization methods. Determination of appropriate site for water spreading is one of the most important stages of this project. Material and Methods: Parameters considered in the selection of groundwater artificial recharge locations are diverse and complex. These factors consist of earth sciences (geology, geomorphology and soils), hydrology (runoff, sediment yield, infiltration and groundwater conditions) and socio-economic aspects (irrigated agriculture, flood damage mitigation, environment, job creation and so on). Hence, decision making depends on criteria of diverse nature. The goal of this study is defining a Decision Support System for floodwater site selection in Mashkid area. Four main criteria were selected in this research are floodwater characters, infiltration, water application and flood damage. In order to determining the importance of factors, Analytical hierarchy Process and GIS was used. Conclusion: It will be expected that soil texture and floodwater volume of water application and floodwater main criteria are two important factors among other criteria (Hypothesis). After providing output maps which had been defined in several scenarios to determine the best locations for floodwater spreading and finally investigates sums suitability and averages suitability of each sub basin.

        Ultimate goal of each commercial company is rising in wealth of shareholders. Proper function increase Company’s value and ultimately increase the shareholder’s wealth. Companies can’t achieve their goals without any proper strategy and making strategy is a result of performance evaluation of different aspects. economic value added and cash management are two items of internal performance evaluation criteria and today’s  economic value added is considered as the best criteria for internal performance evaluation which is representative of shareholder’s wealth and it has close relation to market value added as an external index of value creation. Two dimensional matrix of financial strategy with a combination of cash management and economic value added considering to company’s position in each area, proposes four financial strategy objectives. In this research, position of food companies accepted in Iran Stock Exchange since 2001 to 2010 are defined in financial strategy matrix and considering to their positions in the matrix proper strategies are proposed for move to better position and ultimately relation between EVA, spread and difference between sales growth rate and sustainable growth rate with changes in MVA during ten years is investigated. Result of this research demonstrates that there is a meaningful relation between EVA and spread with changing MVA. But there is not meaningful relation between difference of sales growth rate and sustainable growth rate and changing MVA. Hence Food Companies accepted in Iran Stock Exchange must enlist other criteria for their own cash management and to evaluate their performance and taking proper financial strategies. Procedure of this research is linear regression analysis and spss software is used for hypotheses examination. Manuscript profile

        Forage is the main product of ranges. Through determining the economic value of ranges forage, managers can be directed towards the optimal management of productivity. The purpose of this paper is to estimate the economic value of forage production in the ranges of Zemkan basin located in Kermanshah province. Calculating the value of forage production per square hectare is one of the employed methods used for this purpose. This method involves the awareness of the status of various range types and the producible rate in each range type. Using the interpretation of IRS-P6 satellite images, Liss III and Liss IV sensors, there were determined the area and kind of range types in Zemkan basin. Also, the average forage production per hectare was determined in each range type using experts' attitudes, official statistics, and the information of native individuals. Forage prices are estimated using the Hedonic pricing method as they are economically heterogeneous. The results showed that the economic rents and the expected values of each hectare of ranges are 870 and 13594 Rials per hectare in moderately dense ranges and 580 and 9063 Rials per hectare in low-dense ones. Therefore, it can be inferred that the related ranges can play a significant role in both local and regional economy. Manuscript profile

        One of the weaknesses of GCMs model are large spatial scale in  simulated of climatic variables that for hydrological studies and water resources in the range of watershed area are not sufficiently accurate. So should by using the different techniques that downscale. Then downscaled outputs are used for assessing the impact of climate change on hydrological studies. Among downscaling approaches, statistical methods are of great importance among hydrologists due to their easy and quick performance. In this study, statistical model (SDSM) was evaluated for simulating and predicting minimum and maximum temperature, precipitations in the bar Nayshabur watershed. For executing SDSM model outputs of CGCM1 and Hadcm3 models were applied. Daily data of minimum and maximum temperatures precipitations for the basic period (1970-2000) were simulated under three A1, A2 and B1 scenarios. Based on Statistical parameters, outputs of Hadcm3 model under A2 more compatible with the basic period. Obtained results showed that during 2010-2039, 2040-2069and 2070-2099, the average temperature 0.01, 0.3 and 0.6, the average minimum temperature 0.3, 0.5 and1. 4 and the average maximum temperature 0.7, 1.4 and 2.7 ° C will increase compared to the basic period in the studied basin. Also, the results showed that within three studied periods, the average rainfall will decrease 6, 10 and 17 mm respectivity comparing to the basic period. Manuscript profile

        Semantics is one of the new approaches in Quranology of the last century. This knowledge has been very effective in the growth and promotion of Quranology today and has been welcomed by Quran scholars. One of the branches of semantics is structural semantics, and among them, one of its topics is determining the semantic domains of a word. In the following article, the semantic domain of Lail in the Holy Quran is explained. The research method is textual analysis based on the pattern of accompaniment and substitution of words with the word Lail. This study shows that the words that are related to this word in the process of companionship and succession can be examined as the semantic pairs and subsets of semantic relations day and night (inclusiveness of night and day, etc.); Phenomena accompanying the night (moon, stars and darkness); The sections of Lail (Shafaq, Maghrib, etc.), the functions of Lail (devotional, social, calendar, natural) and the semantic-conceptual types of Lail (complementary, intensifying, distributive and reciprocal) in the Qur'an were examined.

        Seminary is recognized as a forerunning and pioneering institution in Islamic education. Since early Islam, Seminaries have been formed for “education” and somehow leadership of Muslim community for better recognition of religion and its practice; this role, as a matter of time, has been widely expanded particularly when the Islamic Revolution came into existence. Seminaries are included among the effective institutions in the Islamic Republic of Iran; therefore, it is expected that it plays a civilization-making role. Considering the increased responsibilities of seminaries, after the victory of the Islamic Revolution, this institution must revolutionarily appear at the campaigning scene and in addition to learning role, it shall move towards teaching, ethics and knowledge-orientation and present strategies to achieve this aim. If it fails to do so, it will be disintegrated because man has experienced ideological and mental gap after humanism, which has provided seminaries with opportunities in this regard. This article mainly raises the question that “what qualifications should revolutionary seminary have to achieve the Islamic civilization and its leadership”? In response, it can be said that revolutionary seminary, as an important and rooted institution in Islam and Iran which has been origin of the Islamic Revolution of Iran and considering the gap humanism faces can appear at the scene with triangle of knowledge, ethics and revolutionary action and present strategies for reaching modern Islamic civilization.

        Undoubtedly, seminaries have stood by and are standing by the Islamic regimes as to their inherent features and main function; role of religious reference authorities, seminary scholars and clerics has been an avant-garde and forerunning role in the past century, particularly in the Islamic Revolution. Following the idea of the supreme leader about seminaries being revolutionary, this paper seeks to explore the factors of maintaining revolutionary morale beside function of maintaining, supporting and constructively criticizing the Islamic regime of Iran. For the supreme leader, “relation of clergymen with the Islamic regime is that of support and advice”. Naturally, this requires functional and revolutionary discourse to stop the perilous campaigns leading to anti-revolution state of seminaries in a well-conceived and acceptable process and revolutionary morale that is transcendentally originated from political thought of Imam Khomeini and the supreme leader is elucidated. Because this paper deals with revolutionary seminary and the issue of maintaining regime, basic alternatives for monitoring and supporting the Islamic Republic of Iran regime have been taken into account in three components of culture, economics and politics by means of analytic-descriptive methodology; totally, six major features of the revolutionary seminary including updated Islamic culture, promulgation of interaction and discourse, anti-destitution morale, morale of solving public livelihood and economic problems, systemic creativity and thinking in politics and finally promotion of competitively political partnership have been discussed. Of course, in each point of discussion, firstly, characteristics of revolutionary seminary, secondly, supervisory role and aftermaths and positive-negative effect of such features have been referred to.

        Rationality of revolutionary seminary has come to existence from reliable link of seminary to the Islamic regime. The most important indicators of such rationality in its productive role updated and proportionate to demand of seminary ijtihad capacity and knowledge system can be named as power of forward-looking in the framework of political philosophy system of Islam, ability of resolving external interventions and internal conflicts, religious freethinking and release from prejudice, petrification, induration, fundamentalism, reactionarism, management of solving crisis, passing through political-mental ruptures, consolidation of loyalties and reorganization of ideological and mental bindings. Such parameters have resulted in seminary to be reliable and dynamic in the field of political life. Challenges that cause seminary to stay far from religious freethinking, creation of prejudice and petrification, inefficiency and mental obstructions, lack of futurism and smeared political loyalty are included among the most important harms of revolutionary seminary political thought.

        It is necessary for all nations to achieve development to have renewal of national identity. In the history of Iran, there have been three sources including religious, modern and traditional-Iranian sources. Now, the questions raised are that “how has the Islamic Republic of Iran resolved challenges of multiple sources of identity in creating new national identity?” “How have seminaries played a role in forming post-Islamic Revolution national identity?” Lack of consensus in this respect has led to formation of identity crisis and as a result, appearance of barriers on the way to development. In this paper, it is hypothesized that national identity is current and changeable and discourse in open space for creation of national identity and acceptance of democratic manners of attracting elements joint or suitable in relation to other identities can solve the problem. Seminaries as bearers of revolution and the most important identity-giving revolutionary element can play a leading role in developing Islamic and national identity and keep people contented with national identity based on Iranian-Islamic modeling in such an environment. But in practice, this role is not played and it has caused society to deal with challenges. The research has applied analytic-descriptive methodology. Manuscript profile

        Seminaries have been established with an aim to achieve philosophy of prophethood of the Prophets and to recognize, propagate and safeguard Islam and guidance of men and communities and finally, emergence of Islamic civilizations can regarded as their final goals. Since it is not possible to access to the afore-mentioned goals through secular human sciences, production of Islamic human sciences is considered to be among the first grade duties of seminaries. The present article has subjected attainment of the desirable human sciences to three actions taken by seminary and seminary scholars while it pays attention to a need for change in human sciences. These three actions are: a). Pathology and criticism of the prevalent human sciences; b). Production of necessary theoretical texts about the ideas of the Islamic human sciences; c). Attribution of religious doctrines and teachings to human sciences components and elements. Manuscript profile

        Modern Islamic civilization is in fact a macro-strategy that is situated within deep awakening and Islamic movements, particularly the Islamic Revolution and the Muslim world has the capacity and pure Islamic thought has the competence to keep this civilization with all dimensions and angles established. The main question of this paper is that “what role does seminary play in forming and dynamic shaping of modern Islamic civilization?” the article hypothesizes that it up to seminary to engineer modern Islamic civilization, educate managers and agents involved. In other words, revolutionary seminary and perspective ahead is materialization of modern Islamic civilization which is not made possible without seminaries having a part to play. The most significant role of seminary in achievement of modern Islamic civilization obtained in this research are: 1. Efficient and conceptual elucidation of frameworks, goals and models monitoring modern Islamic civilization based on which its achievement demands an epistemological system which has Islamic learnings in focus; 2. Paving the ground for emergence of Imam of the Age (may Allah hasten his emergence); 3. Providing capacities and cherishing efficient forces in proportion to revolutionary mission are included among other requirements for materializing the modern Islamic civilization. Hence, establishment of modern Islamic civilization and as a result, transformation of the western material culture into Islamic civilization remain collateral to resolution of civilization, Islamization, society and Islamic state, which with no doubt will be bridged through seminaries and government provided they remain revolutionary.

        Simile is the most significant and main basis of all imagery knacks in poetry. So its analysis can be useful for having a good knowledge of aesthetic aspects of the poem, understanding its meaning and knowing the poet’s attitudes, trends and style. In this paper, Shafi’ee kadkani’s use of similes in his two collections of poems has been analyzed in an attempt to find some of his poetry’s style features, literary innovations, mental tendencies and artistic aspects. For this purpose, the simile has been classified in accordance with traditional rhetoric first, and then creative and cliché similes have been extracted and studied. After classification and analysis of vehicles in eight semantic fields, the two prominent characteristics of simile i.e. musical and naturalistic characters have been examined. The results of the study show that Shafi’ee Kadkani is very interested in Nature, and the essence of the music of the poetry, especially inner music, is very important for him, so that he tries to observe the musical aspects of the words in choosing the tenor and vehicle for most of the similes.

        The purpose of current study was to predict specific domains of hope based on attachment styles. The research design was correlational. The population consisted of all newcomers to Bu-Ali University of Hamedan in 2011-12. From among them, 250 were selected by multistage random sampling. Then, they attended the research instruments namely, Hazan and Shaver Adult Attachment Styles Questionnaire (1987) and Sympson Adult Domain-Specific Hope Scale (1999). The data was analyzed by structural equation modeling. Results showed that secure attachment style positively and significantly predicted each of five specific domains of hope (i.e. social relationship, academic, family life, occupation, and leisure time); but avoidant attachment style did not have any significant relationship with them. Furthermore, ambivalent attachment style could just predict family life of domain specific hope negatively and significantly. These results show that hope increase in individuals should be considered by their attachment styles since it needs to be taken place within certain specific domains of hope in order to avoid any further problems and to facilitate the efficacy of hope-inducing properties.

        In order to research in field of implicit cognitive processes and cognitive biases in early maladaptive schemas, providing any related stimulus to schemas is necessary. This descriptive study was conducted to determine the Persian words related to schemas of disconnection and rejection domain as the verbal stimulus. 404words were selected through reviewing the Persian lexicon, Sadri Afshar by researcher based on their relation to common unmet emotional needs and emotional memories of people with schemas. 164 words were selected based on content validity by three schema therapists as activating words for schemas and their related schemas were determined. Abandonment, mistrust, emotional deprivation, defectiveness and social isolation were determined to 32, 50, 29, 32 and 6 words. Then the extensions to which they were linked to schemas were evaluated in the 4 score Likert scale by 30 psychologists who were trained in schema therapy. The repetition of the core content in each group of words indicates patients’ concerns and emotions and importance of emphasis on speech and inner speech. This verbal database can provide materials for cognitive paradigms in evaluating, treating and preventing activation of schemas. Manuscript profile

        In recent decades Caspian forest has been attacked by human intervention. Easy access, abundance and diversity of valuable forest products led to an increase in population density, development of new residential areas and activities of deforestation. Change detection is essential in the assessment and management of natural resources. The aim of this study, was to monitor changes in forests of Siyahmezgi watershed in two time periods (2000 and 2015), using LandSat ETM+ (2000) and OLI (2015) images. Images were geometric corrected using 20 ground control points that are randomly taken from all over the watershed area, and topographic maps. After selection of the best indicators of using Bhattacharyya distance, image classification using an artificial neural network algorithm was performed. The results of classification of neural network method of Siyahmezgi watershed in two time periods (2000 and 2015) showed that overall accuracy is equal to 95.75% and 95.96%, respectively. The area of forest lands during 2000 and 2015 has been reduced in size 213.55 ha. In addition, in this area dense rangelands have declined, but during this period the extent of dry farming and semi-dense rangelands have 169.95 and 9.6 hectares were added, respectively.

        Deforestation affects watershed processes and biochemical cycles and lead to soil erosion and lack of water in the catchment areas. This study is aimed to investigate the changes in forest land in the Chaloorood watershed on the west of Mazandaran province using Geomod. In this study, maps of forest in the years of 1987 and 2015 were prepared using satellite images. Then the suitability  forest map was produced by making a regression equation between suitability criteria maps and forest changes map in the period of 1987-2015. Finally, by using forest map in 1987, forest suitability map and the number of modified pixels in forest land between 1987 and 2015, Forecast of the forest map for 2043 was done using Geomod. Also, by using the Validate function and classified forest map 2015, as a reference map, and the forecasting forest map 2015,  as a comparative map, the validity of the production map was evaluated. The results showed that the area of forest land in 1987, 2015, and 2043 was 38683.65, 2464.354 and 15227.25 hectares, respectively. The extent of forest changes in the last 28 years and the next 28 years is 35.72% and 38.76% respectively. Forest changes in the period between 1987 and 2015 under the influence of factors such as distance from the road, forest cover density, distance from the village, slope and elevation above sea level, respectively. The Pseudo R2 and ROC coefficients are 0.29 and 0.85 respectively, which indicates the proper ability of the model to estimate forest changes over the past 28 years and the relative agreement of the model with the real changes. In this study the accuracy of resulting land use maps was 96%, which represent the appropriate capability of Geomod in land use changes modeling in Chaloosrood watershed. Manuscript profile

        In recent decades, with the expansion of human activities on the natural environment, a variety of hazards, including landslides, have had serious human and financial damage. As a result, landslide susceptibility assessment and identifying the critical areas for watershed protection seems to be necessary. In this study, landslide susceptibility using combined fuzzy and Analytic Network Process (FANP) methods has been modelled on the Farub Roman basin. To achieve this goal, four clusters; topography, biological, hydro-climate and geological and criteria such as elevation, slope, aspect, curvature, distance from roads, land use, normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), distance from rivers, drainage density, rainfall, soil moisture index, distance from faults and lithology have been considered. The results showed that the Fuzzy-analytic network process model is appropriate for landslide susceptibility modelling for as much as in model validation through the Relative Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves, the AUC, 0.83 has achieved with the standard error; 0.07, of the P-value equal to zero. For assessing the landslide susceptibility in the Farub Roman basin based on the results of the ROC curve, fuzzy ANP model evaluated very well. In addition, the results showed that, 66% of the known landslides have been found in areas with high and very high sensitivity. Due to the estimation of the high and very high sensitivity of landslides; 51% of the total area, the implementation of studying watershed protection seems to be necessary. Manuscript profile

        Identifying susceptible areas for erosion can be considered as one of the most important soil conservation measures. In this study, the capability of Dempster-Shafer (DS) model for mapping potential areas for erosion was investigated in Kakareza watershed in Lorestan province. First thematic layers of influential factors in soil erosion, including altitude, slope, slope, aspect, plan curvature, lithology, land use, distance from the river, soil and topographic wetness index were prepared. In addition, 29 eroded positions in the study area that their positions were obtained from GPS and Google earth on 10 July 20016 were mapped and then were divided into a training (70%) and testing (30%) points. The layers of environmental variables were classified into different classes according to and then based on the density of eroded points in the study area and DS analysis, the weight of each class was determined and the potential map of vulnerable areas to erosion was obtained according to the DS model. The accuracy of a generated map was also investigated using testing points and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. The result showed that the produced map has the success rate of 21%, that means the poor capability of the DS model for mapping susceptible areas of erosion. In addition, according to the DS map, areas with the highest potential to surface erosion are located in the central and eastern part of the study area. Therefore, it can be indicated that this model has a poor ability in identifying potential and vulnerable areas to surface erosion compared to other phenomena such as flood and gully erosion.

        The availability of suitable maps of terrain features is very important because these complications and the process governing them are the sources of many environmental hazards and resources. The purpose of this research, compare the optic and radar data for terrain feature extraction. A panchromatic band of Landsat 8 (OLI) as an optical image and two C-band Sentinel-1 satellite radar images with a resolution of 22×20 m per pixel were used. Two radar images (radar-1 and 2) in two different acquisition directions with different look angels were visually interpreted. In order to reduce the geometric and radiometric effects of the topography, the radar images were corrected using 3-second SRTM data (modified radar). In this study, four feature types were extracted by visual interpretation, which is: valleys, blades, alluvial fans, and debris fans and the results were compared with the World Imagery layer. The accuracy, completeness, quality, kappa, and z-test were calculated for every interpretation. The results showed that the highest accuracies in recognition of valleys and blades using Landsat image were 83.90% and 87.88%, respectively, and the highest accuracies of alluvial fan and the debris fan of the modified radar image were 82.76% and 83.72% respectively. The highest kappa coefficient related to the modified radar data was calculated at 54.72% (Landsat 49.74%) and the highest z-text related to Landsat-radar 1 was calculated 0.9871 (Modified Radar-Landsat 0.6443%).

        Drought as a natural hazard has always affected some parts of the country. Nowadays, it is possible to study drought using remote sensing techniques through its effects on the plants and achieve more accurate and efficient results for drought modelling. This study aims to investigate the relationship between meteorological, hydrological and agricultural drought using drought indices and remote sensing method in Gharehsou watershed. For this purpose, MODIS images (satellite Terra, product MODO9Q1) and rainfall and discharge data of five meteorological and hydrometric stations for 2000 to 2015 time period were used. The results of the comparison of meteorological, hydrological and agricultural drought represent conformity of the three types of drought in the years 2000, 2001, 2004, 2005, 2007, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015. Although the SPI and NDVI values were positive in the years 2002, 2003 and 2008, SDI index showed the occurrence of hydrological drought (negative values). In the year 2006 despite the rainfall increase, but this year has been facing the agricultural and hydrological drought. So the results simultaneity of drought there does not exist in all the years. The results of Pearson correlation showed there is a high correlation between mean NDVI and SPI and SDI indices equal to 0.706 and 0.788 respectively at the significance level of 0.01. Generally, the results of SDI and SPI indices largely confirm the results of the NDVI index. Manuscript profile

        In order to create sustainable development in the tourism industry, the proper understanding of environmental potentials and its sensitivity to human activities is very important. This study has identified and prioritized the potential of ecotourism sites in the Kojur basin of Mazandaran province. Physiographies criteria, including slope, direction, and elevation, as well as criteria of distance from road, river, village, sliding locations and canopy percent, were selected as the appropriate index. The criteria were evaluated and fuzzy by the experts and Analytic hierarchy process (AHP) method. Subsequently, using the Ordered weighted average (OWA) scenarios, the appropriate ecotourism site was selected. To reduce risk and increase managerial power, Boolean logic was used. The results showed that the landslide and the roads had a maximum value of 0.315 and 0.238, respectively. The output maps of the OWA scenarios have shown that the northeastern range of the cougar basin is the most optimal location for the establishment of the ecotourism site, and the northern region was ranked next. In the scenario of the low-risk level and non-compensated, and low-risk level and low compensation scenario, 83 hectares of land were recognized for the appropriate ecotourism site. While, average risk and complete compensation, high risk and low compensation, average risk and non-compensation and high risk and no compensation, were 3179, 1255, 1909, and 2577 hectares respectively for ecotourism sites. The Boolean logic output showed that about 47 hectares of northeastern lands of Kojour basin are an appropriate ecotourism site. Manuscript profile

        Predicting land use changes using satellite imagery is now a useful tool for helping planners in complex situations. The purpose of this study was to detect and predict land use changes during the 28-year period (1986-2014) by CA- Markov model in the Safarood-Ramsar watershed of Mazandaran province. In this research, land use and NDVI maps were prepared using Landsat TM (1986), ETM+ (2000) and OLI (2014) satellite images. The accuracy of the CA-Markov model was estimated using the Kappa index of 87%. In order to calibrate the CA-Markov model, the land use map was prepared in 2014, and the Kappa coefficient of the mapping from modeling and user base map (2014) was 82%. The results showed that during the period between 1986 and 2014, the area of forest lands decreased by 10.26% and the total area of residential areas increased by 3.27%. The land use map for the years 2021 and 2028 was predicted by the CA-Markov model. The results showed that during the period 2014-2028, forested lands and rangelands decreased by 4.92% and 1.7%, respectively. Residential areas will increase by 8.04% and the agricultural land will change slightly, indicating the changes in land use to residential land. Manuscript profile

        In the present study, vegetation changes in the Karaj watershed in 2006, 2011 and 2017 were investigated using the Normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), the integration of land metrics and gradient analysis. After calculating the NDVI index, Then, two-section gradient analysis was designed in the direction of north-south and east-west. Then 6 metrics were calculated at two levels of class and landform using moving window design. The results of the comparison of the floor area showed that the highest increase in the area was done in lands with very good vegetation so that 5104 hectares (4%) have been enlarged. It is also the largest reduction in the area of excellent vegetation cover, which decreased by 4055 hectares (3%) during the studied period. The results of gradient analysis showed that the distribution pattern of vegetation in a three-year period is a cluster. The results of the analysis of both transects at the level of the land and the classes show that the average of mean distance from the nearest neighbor gradually increases during transects and the increase in total in 2017 compared to the initial year. This indicates an increase in the distance between the vertices of the same patch and the difficulty of communication between them, which is one of the signs of the disruption of the landscape.

        Distinguishing the susceptible areas to landslide using appropriate experimental models of landslide susceptibility mapping is one of the primitive and basic works to reduce probable damages and reduce risk in country's watersheds. In this research, thirteen factors, including altitude, slope, aspect, rainfall, plan curvature, profile curvature, Topographic Wetness Index (TWI), Stream power index (SPI), distance from the river, distance from road, distance from the fault, lithology, and land use are identified as effective parameters in landslide occurrence in the studied area. The landslide landslide distribution map was prepared using Landsat 2017 satellite imagery and Field studies (2017). Then, the landslide susceptibility mapping was performed with three methods, including frequency ratio, entropy and TOPSIS. The results were evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. The area under the curve (AUC) of applied models shows the accuracy of 84, 87.7, and 91 percent for entropy frequency ratio and TOPSIS models, respectively. The results are indicative statistical models have a better accuracy in comparison with MCDM models and expert approaches. The results of the present study could be useful for better managing the flood affected areas and to reduce its damage. Manuscript profile

        Satellite-based precipitation dataset has been widely used to estimate precipitation, especially over regions with sparse rain gauge networks. However, the low spatial resolution of these datasets has limited their application in localized regions and watersheds. So, having an accurate estimation of precipitation by satellites along with the adequate spatial scale in hydrologic studies is the main goal of this study. In this research, Geographically weighted regression (GWR) method was investigated to downscale the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM-3B42 Version 7) over the DEZ river basin in the southwest of IRAN for 2010-2011. Downscaling was performed based on the non-stationary relationships between the TRMM precipitation and the Digital elevation model (DEM) derived products, the Normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), the Enhanced vegetation index (EVI) and the Land surface temperature (LST). The result shows that the downscale precipitation at 1 km spatial scale had significantly improved spatial resolution, and agreed well with data from the rain gauge stations. For the 16-day precipitation, Mean square root means square error (RMSE) and absolute mean error (MAE) values are 22.7 mm and 7.45 mm, respectively. However, the accuracy of the model varies in a different location and depends on the vegetation condition. Manuscript profile

        Minab plain in Hormozgan province has experienced population growth with agricultural development in recent decades. Low rainfall in recent years, successive droughts, and limited surface water resources, irregular irrigation practices in the agricultural sector in the study area, along with inappropriate cultivation patterns, have caused the extraction of water wells in the region. The extraction of these wells and groundwater resources has led to an imbalance in the aquifer in the area and a decline in groundwater levels. The consequences of this trend have caused the creation and expansion of subsidence in the region. This research, by investigating radar, satellite images and using differential radial interferometry, has been used to detect and determine the amount of subsidence in order to investigate the extent of this phenomenon in the study area. In this study, data from the Sentinel-1 refer to the dates 2014 and 2018 were used. The results showed it had 13-centimeter subsidence in the study period. After verifying the results by control points (in September 2018), in order to find the relationship of subsidence with changes in groundwater level, elevation, and slope, a spatial analysis was performed and the correlation of each of these factors with subsidence event density was calculated. Spatial autocorrelation analysis and Moran's index showed that climatic event due to water level changes in the study area was 0.925. The values ​​of 1.89 and 0.06 for standard normal distribution (z) and the p_value respectively, confirm a strong autocorrelation between the studied factors. Manuscript profile

        The accuracy of land use changes map obtained from remote sensing data depends on the accuracy of each of the land use maps during the time period studied. In this study, TM and OLI images in 1989 and 2018 and an object-oriented classification method were used to investigate the land use/ land cover change trends with an emphasis on agricultural land use in the Ghare Sou basin. After the pre-processing, the object-oriented processing using the multiresolution segmentation method was applied. In addition to the spectral bands, some additional information such as a normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), band means, the standard deviation of bands and geometry characteristics were used to extract land use in order to obtain more accurate results. Of these non-spectral data used, 15 characteristics were selected by Feature space optimization (FSO) method to be used in the nearest neighborhood algorithm. The kappa coefficient of the land use maps for 1989 and 2018 was 85% and 96%, respectively, indicating the reliability of the object-oriented classification results. In the next step, the map of the changes was produced comparing the classified maps. According to the results of the change detection, the agricultural land use during the studied period has an increase of 73849 hectares, mainly due to the destruction of rangelands and its conversion to the agricultural land.

        Background and ObjectiveNowadays, in order to logical use of water for agricultural products, an accurate understanding of the evapotranspiration process is needed. Evapotranspiration is one of the most significant components of water balance hence it is a key variable for the optimal management of water resources. In this paper, we aim to the analysis of the spatial and temporal and distribution of actual evapotranspiration (AET) at monthly time scale using the METRIC approach, driven by MODIS satellite observations over the Vanak Basin and check the accuracy of the METRIC results with (SEBAL, Surface Energy Balance Algorithm for Land). Materials and Methods There are many methods for correct estimation of point evapotranspiration, such as weighing lysimeters, the Bowen ratio, and the eddy correlation methods. The weakness of the mentioned methods is that these techniques only provide evapotranspiration for a specific site and they can't estimate regional evaporation. The METRIC model was developed by Allen et al., (2007) based on the well-known SEBAL model (Bastiaanssen, 1998). METRIC model is a remote sensing-based method that estimates actual evapotranspiration as a residual of the surface energy balance. Herein, the spatial and temporal distribution of actual evapotranspiration of the Vanak Basin from April to November 2013–2014 was estimated using the METRIC model and using MODIS satellite data, the feasibility of using METRIC was investigated. Vanak Basin is located in the southeastern part of the Northern Karoon Basin. It is geographically placed between Chaharmahal va Bakhtiari and Isfahan provinces. 60 MODIS products of Leaf Area Index (MOD15A2), land surface temperature LST (MOD11A2) and surface reflectance (MOD09A1) in 8-day time step were extracted. The mentioned images were downloaded from the USGS website and the images were re-projected from the Sinusoidal projection to UTM projection. The scale factor for LAI, LST and Surface Reflectance were 0.1,0,02 and 0.0001, respectively. Estimation of ET with the METRIC model begins with energy balance. Data sets such as MODIS observations and weather data from the stations in and near the Vanak Basin are used to calculate instantaneous surface energy fluxes including net radiation flux (Rn), soil heat flux (G) and sensible heat flux (H) in the processing technique. ET at the instant of the satellite image is computed for each pixel by dividing LE values by latent heat of vaporization and density of water. Results and Discussion Throughout this research, the upper limit of the variation of AET showed a gradual increase from April to July in both 2013 and 2014. According to the results, the maximum amount of actual evapotranspiration in 2013 and 2014 for the July month was obtained 244 and 263 mm per month respectively. In general, the results of this paper will help us better understand the variations of regional AET. Comparison of the spatial distributions of AET, LAI and LST in the study area showed that the spatial distribution of AET was affected by two factors, LAI and LST, that Pearson correlation test was used to assess the relationship between two variables LAI and LST with actual evapotranspiration. Based on the results, the regions which had dense vegetation and low land surface temperatures had high AET rates, while in the regions with sparse vegetation and high land surface temperatures, the AET rate was low. The results showed that the trend of changes in the mean monthly temperature is in line with the monthly actual evapotranspiration; the same trend was observed in the case of albedo and net radiation flux. It should be noted that the absence of ground measurements for comparing them to the modelled AET amounts was a potential limitation of the current study.  However, our approach of evaluating AET estimates derived from the METRIC model with the AET estimates derived from SEBAL model is a widely used (as standard approach) approach to tackle such limitations. In the second step of the analysis, this paper compares the estimated monthly AET using the equations of the METRIC versus the SEBAL, for the Vanak Basin in 2014. The outcome of the SEBAL model was used as a reference to compare the results obtained from the METRIC model. The statistical analysis was performed to determine the differences between monthly AET derived from METRIC vs. monthly AET derived from SEBAL. The Nash–Sutcliffe model efficiency coefficient (NSE), Coefficient of Determination (R2) and Mean absolute error (MAE) are used, that the results showed high R2 values and NS coefficients and low MAE values indicate that METRIC is closely related to SEBAL Model in the most of the months. The monthly AET values estimated by the METRIC model versus the monthly AET values estimated from the SEBAL model were evaluated and compared for the Vanak Basin from April to November 2014. Based on the overall results the scatter of estimations is in an acceptable range. In 2014, there was good agreement between METRIC and SEBAL models (R2=0.96–0.99, NSE = 0.93–0.99 and MAE = 1.3–7.53 mm month−1). In 2014, other results indicated that in both models, the upper limit of the variation of AET showed a gradual increase from April to July. Conclusion According to the results, the regions with high leaf area index (LAI) and low land surface temperature have more evapotranspiration than other regions with low leaf area index and high land surface temperature. The trend of the time series of LAI index and evapotranspiration in this study was consistent with the trend of changes in the parameters mentioned in the study, which was described by Reyes-González et al (2019) that use of the METRIC model in Dacota.

        Predicting the trend of land use/land cover chenges in natural range ecosystem via remote sensing techniques and evaluating their potentials by modeling, plays an important role in decision making. The goal of this research is monitoring and predicting land use/land cover changes in Nour-rood basin by CA-Markov in a 60 year periods (1988-2048). Landsat TM (1988, 1998, 2008) and OLI (2018) imagery of similar months (in July) were classified by maximum likelihood method algorithm. Terrestrial reality derived from topographic at scale 1:25000 and aerial photos available in the (GDNR) and (WMM) during 1988-2008 and field visits (2018) were evaluated for accuracy. The accuracy of the production maps calculated with Kappa coefficient. So that the highest and lowest ratio were related to the images of 1998 and 1988, respectively with the values of 0.86 and 0.81. The results were compared with field ground truth to determine the accuracy of results. Random matric used to convert land use classes and the map of land cover of Nour-rud basin predicted, in (2018-2028). The results showed that in (1988-2018), forests and rangelands with excellent and fair cover conditions had decreasing and ranges with good condition, rocks and residential areas had increasing trend. Total area of rangelands decreased from 116206 hectares in 1988 to 106336 hectares in 2018. Moreover, the results of Markov model with more than 85% precision showed the same trend of land use changes from 2018-2048. Excellent rangeland cover conditions, showed decreasing trend, rocky and residential areas will also have an increasing trend until 2048. Markov's prediction model also shows an accuracy of more than 85%. The trend of land use changes during 2018-2048 will be the same as in previous. In whitch case, excellent range condition will have decreasing trend; rocky and residential areas will have an increasing trend until 2048. Manuscript profile

        Background and Objective Karst is a composite image of all the roughness, shapes, pores, and phenomena caused by water corrosion, above and below the surface, in various soluble geological formations, which cover about 15% of the world's exposed rocks. Despite the importance of karst areas in the past, today, the study, identification, spatial analysis and management of these areas are of very interest to geologists, hydrologists, hydrogeologists, eco-tourists, geotourists and environmentalists at various scales. Karst phenomenon also has a special place in various dimensions from the point of view of geology and geomorphology, because the causes and methods of dissolution processes and forms and their extension in rocks and minerals are of great importance to East Mazandaran, especially in the study area, is geologically one of the areas with karst process potential and has been less studied due to environmental conditions, especially vegetation and access roads. This study is focused on identifying karst areas and their extent using RS and GIS method in the Zalem-Rud Sari basin in Mazandaran province in northern Iran. In order to identify karst areas and physicochemical characteristics of existing aquifers, it was first necessary to identify karst areas and then assess their physicochemical status. In the first step, using Landsat, ASTER and SRTM satellite data, geological maps, weather information and field visits, factors affecting karstification such as rock types, Fracture lineaments, vegetation, climate, condition of the drainages and the slope of the topography are extracted. It should be noted that in this step, to obtain a better result, fuzzy logic and Hierarchical Analysis Process have been used. In the second step, in order to investigate the physicochemical condition of the aquifer, the chemical parameters of some springs are analyzed and the dissolution parameters, saturation indices, the origin of water-soluble components and the general flow system in the existing aquifers are determined.Materials and Methods In this study, the composition and distribution of rock, based on field visits and georeferenced geological maps of one hundred thousandths of Behshahr and Sari, have been done. Three methods of manual, automatic and semi-automatic have been used to extract the lineaments due to fractures. In the manual method, the lineaments are highlighted and extracted by applying High Pass filters, PCA and the color combination of Landsat 8 satellite data. In the automatic method, the Segment Tracing Algorithm (STA) in PCI software is used. In the STA algorithm, linear pixels are identified based on the degree of gray difference and then converted to vectors based on RADI, GTHR, LTHR, FTHR, ATHR and DTHR parameters. The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) was used to detect and extract vegetation status on OLI sensor data from the Landsat 8 satellite. To generate DEM, photogrammetric techniques were performed on a pair of stereo images of ASTER sensor in Idrisi software based on parametric variables of external and external orientations and ground control points (GCPs). The topographic slope of the area has been calculated by DEM and based on the degree in GIS and its map has been prepared. Based on the weather data of the General Meteorological Department of Mazandaran Province, the weather condition is determined by the isothermal, isohyetal and isoevaporation curves and the type of weather is determined by the De Marton method.Results and Discussion The result of the above activities has been the production of lithological maps, density and distance from fracture lineaments, density and distance from drainages, topographic slope, rainfall and vegetation. Due to the different criteria used in the generated maps and the need for a single, comparable and proportionate criteria for combining information layers, fuzzy logic has been used. In this case, all layers, except lithology, which has a definite boundary and is a function of Boolean logic, are fuzzy and then extracted as fuzzy layers in GIS. On the other hand, because the weight and effectiveness of the eight factors affecting the occurrence of the karst phenomenon are not the same, the Hierarchical Analysis (AHP) method has been used to determine the preference and prioritization of these factors. And the participation rate, in other words, the weight of each criterion with an incompatibility coefficient of less than one percent has been calculated in Expert Choice 12 software. Finally, by the weighted linear combination (WLC) method, fuzzy raster layers based on their effective weight are combined with Compromise Operator or Gamma and the karst distribution map is extracted with different probability coefficients in the study area. In the next step, in order to investigate the physicochemical status of the aquifers and evaluate the karst phenomenon, 18 springs with equal flow and more than three litres per second were selected and evaluated using SPPS, RockWorks2016 and PHREEQC2.6 software. In addition to extracting hydrogeochemical tables and graphs, the saturation index of various minerals has also been calculated.Conclusion The results of this study show that the karst phenomenon has the most spread in the central part and the lineaments resulting from fractures have played the most role in the formation of this phenomenon. The water type of these springs is calcium-magnesium bicarbonate and according to the Gibbs diagram, the role of aquifer rocks in determining the chemical composition of water is very clear. Also, the saturation indices of minerals and the type of flow in groundwater reservoirs are diffuse and diffuse-duct flows. To this research, the use of new remote sensing technology and GIS increases accuracy and speed and reduces costs in karst studies. Manuscript profile

        Unsuitable positioning in national and regional development plans and projects in Iran results in irreversible spending of budget and time mainly. The aim of this study is to decline the costs and loss of opportunities, using a model that can effectively reduce the error of expert. This study was performed in the Ghourchay Ramian basin. Firstly, distinct scenarios and conceptual and tree model were created for biological and mechanical measures (masonry corrective dams). Then the constraints and vector maps entered into the SMCE in ILWIS®3.7. Constraints (slope, land use, soil and streams) with Boolean method and factors (slope, height, soil, soil erosion, land use and proximity to road, village, fault, rock sources and landslide) with Fuzzy method (benefit, cost and compound methods) have been standardized. Then weighting of factors performed using the results of questionnaires and expert opinions with procedures as ranking, pairwise comparisons and direct method. Validity and reliability of the questionnaire, was controlled. Results showed that four ranking, which was specified in priority map, in biological plans, places with first priority allocated 0.73 to 0.97 scores and over 3 km of waterways and in dam and concrete plans, 0.65 to 0.86 and an area of 2470 hectares, respectively. The model type is logical and uses logical and optimization principles not experimental principles. So there was no try to test it with the previous schemes were implemented. Projects that many errors because lack of the possibility of combining several criteria and GIS advanced techniques. Finally, it was suggested that due to the high performance of this model for evaluating watershed management projects and prediction of projects for implementation, this model will be used in the same watersheds in the country.

        Precipitation variable is the key parameter of agricultural and hydrometeorology studies. Therefore, measurement and estimation of rainfall at the regional level  help to understand the manner of water and energy cycles.  In spite of the high variability of temporal and spatial precipitation quantity, precipitation monitoring using ground stations at regional scales is considerably difficult. The use of satellite images with high spatial resolution is therefore recommended. However, it is first necessary to evaluate temporal and spatial accuracy of data. The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) satellite data for estimating daily, monthly, and annual rainfall on a regular spatial scale (0.25° ×0.25°) during 2000-2012, and to compare these estimated data with precipitation data at 30 stations (synoptic and climatological) in the west boundary basin of Iran. The Pearson correlation coefficient was  calculated daily, monthly, and annually for the mentioned rainfall period changes. The results indicated a significant correlation (p<0.05) among the monthly and annual  collected data of terrestrial and satellite precipitation. The relationship between monthly precipitation data from satellite images and observed data from stations were also determined using a linear and nonlinear regression for each year. The model reliability was also subsequently determined using statistical validation. Manuscript profile

        Assessment of Watershed management practices is one of the main subjects for future planning of natural resources management and restoration projects. In terms of, there are no tools for assessment of watershed management practices in many basins of the country, and then distributed hydrological models can be used this purpose. The purpose of this study was evaluation of cover changes and it effect on runoff in Sarab Sefid basin in Borujerd county-Lorestan Province by HEC-HMS (Hydrologic Modeling System). For this purpose, based on the rainfall-runoff observed events, HEC-HMS model was optimized and calibrated. Then, to determination of rangeland condition changes, concentration time was measured after each scenario. Inputs of model were determined by SCS method and simulated runoff for available data from climatology stations. Criteria's such as runoff pick and amount of flow determined for evaluation and measured in two situations of before and after land use. Results show that this model (HEC-HMS) is suitable for predicting and simulating of sun off in basin according to acceptable accuracy. Because of decreasing of Curve Number (CN) cause of plant cover increasing, the best scenarios to decreasing runoff are exclusion, available management of rangelands, conflagration and heavy grazing respectively. Therefore to decreasing of runoff must increase plant cover by any management tools even exclusion which it is the last way.

        The purpose of this study was to explain the background of the development of hadiths on women and to determine the role of each field in the development of fake hadiths. The study population included “Almozooat” books. The sample subsumed the subjects of the hadiths about women and determining the role of each field in the spread of false hadiths against women. The research design was descriptive-analytical. Data was obtained through documents and libraries. The analysis was conducted based on the obtained data from the topics and hadiths of the topic in the “Almozooat” books. The results of the research showed that the historical conditions of the Islamic society were the basis for the fake hadith about women. The grounds for fake hadith about women were divided into cultural, social and political contexts: Cultural contexts included the dominance of patriarchal culture, the existence of a negative attitude towards women's identity and the promotion of the thoughts of the believers among Muslims. The influence of religious opponents among Muslims was a political issue and the existence of social requirements in the post-Prophet era was considered as a social issue. Therefore, anti-feminist hadiths were falsified, and after the falsification, due to the acceptance by the male community and due to the negligent approach of the narrators in narrating non-commandments news and without any critique review, they were inserted in the narrative texts.

        The purpose of the present study was to investigate the interacting with spouse style of Hazrat Khadijah (PBUH) in three cultural, psychological and behavioral fields. The research universe included all the texts and sources related to Hazrat Khadijah (PBUH). The sample of the research was the texts related to the interacting with spouse style of Hazrat Khadijah (PBUH) and the cultural, psychological and behavioral analysis about this contents. This research was descriptive and analytical. Data was collected using documentary and library methods via reviewing the texts on interacting with spouse style of Hazrat Khadijah (PBUH and cultural, psychological and behavioral subjects and note taking on index cards. Then the obtained data were analyzed. The results of the research showed that Hazrat Khadijah (PBUH), the unique lady of Hijaz, acted very admirably in her way of interacting with spouse to the Holy Prophet (PBUH) in three cultural, psychological and behavioral dimensions, and she should be a perfect model not only for all faithful women, but also for absolute all women. She that was taken under consideration of others during her lifetime and after her death, developed the attitude toward matrimony, the impact of age on marriage and non-insisting on luxury in cultural field. On psychological domain she held traits akin love and perception, deep confidence on her spouse and understanding the life difficulties.   Also, in the field of behavior, she had characteristics such as chastity, generosity, honoring her spouse, supporting her husband, and creating a safe and relaxing atmosphere at home.  Therefore, it could be reported that the use of all these components by women would improve their status with their husbands and, as a result, strengthen the family and achieve common goals.     Manuscript profile

        یکی از راه حل‌های کارآمد و مناسب برای بهینه سازی استفاده از رواناب به ویژه درمناطق خشک و نیمه خشک، استفاده ازسدهای خاکی کوچک است. که ضمن کاهش خسارات ناشی از سیل، در تغذیه مصنوعی سفره آب زیرزمینی، احیای مراتع و بیابان زدایی موثر است.در سالهای اخیر، توسعه و بهره برداری از منابع آب و خاک در مناطق خشک و نیمه خشک، ضرورتی انکارناپذیر است که بهر ه برداری از سیلاب‌های آنی در این مناطق یکی از این زمینه‌ها است. یکی از مسائلی مهمی که در زمینه طراحی مکان احداث این سازه‌های مهندسی در حوزه‌های آبخیز وجود دارد، بحث مکان یابی صحیح این سازه‌ها بر روی رودخانه اصلی حوزه می باشد. عدم وجود یک راه ریاضی و منطقی به منظور اولویت بندی عملیات اجرایی این سازه‌ها ما را بر آن داشت تا با استفاده از مدل ارزیابی چند معیاره مکانی و تلفیق لایه‌های اطلاعاتی که از اهداف اصلی این تحقیق می باشد، مکان‌های مناسب جهت احداث سد خاکی بر روی رودخانه‌های اصلی حوزه آبخیز یوسف آباد طبس بپردازیم. لذا با استفاده از ترکیب نقشه‌های رستریمربوط به محدودیت مکانی (حریم رودخانه)، عوامل مکانی طبیعی (درصد شیب، حریم از رودخانه، واحدهای ژئومورفولوژی و ویژگیهای زمین شناسی )، عوامل اقتصادی (منابع قرضه، حریم از راه، حریم از قنات و حریم از مناطق مسکونی) در محیط برنامه نویسی ارزیابی چند معیاره مکانی، نرم افزار ILWIS 3.31  طراحی شد. ابتدا لایه‌های مکانی به فرمت این نرم افزار در آورده شد. سپس لایه‌های مکانی ناهمگون با یکدیگر، تلفیق و همگون سازی شدند و همگی ارزش‌های فازی صفر تا یک را گرفتند. به دلیل یکسان نبودن ارزش لایه‌ها، لایه‌ها وزن دهی شدند. در نهایت، تلفیق لایه‌ها انجام شد و نقشه شاخص ترکیبی به دست آمد که در آن مکان‌های مساعد جهت احداث سد خاکی منطقه مطالعاتی، الویت بندی گردید و بهترین مکان جهت انجام عملیات اجرائی در حوزه مشخص شد. نتایج تحقیق حاضر نشان داد مکان احداث، از نظر مهندسی و از نظر مردمی مورد تأیید کارشناسان و مردم بومی منطقه بود. و می توان ازعان نمود، دقت، صحت و سرعت  و توانائی بالای این مدل می تواند برای حوزه‌های آبخیز دیگری نیز انجام گیرد.

        Estimation of suspended sediment load is one of the most important factors in the hydraulic, morphological and hydraulic behavior of river sediments  and the basis of proper management of water and soil resources in Drainage basin. Estimation of the total suspended load of the river is often possible with the data measured in hydrometric stations from establishing the relationships of sediment measurement curves using conventional methods. In this paper, the amount of sediment estimation in Damavand Drainage basin has been estimated through statistics recorded in Mamlu hydrometric station. The main rivers of Damavand Drainage basin are Damavand and Siahroud rivers. Damavand river which flows from east to west of the basin and while passing through Damavand city, Tarroud, Arab chenarha, Gilavand, Hesare paeen, Mara, Kajan, Tamisan, Zareh Dar and Siah Sang, after 48 km, finally in Yurd Shah It joins Jajroud river. For this purpose, these statistics (related to Damavand Drainage basin) were received from Tamab Company. According to the study, the average annual bed load in Damavand Drainage basin is 46395.332 tons, the total discharge of sedimentary materials is 2783.2192 tons and the specific sediment production of the basin is on average 3665.12 tons per square kilometer. The results of this study show that Karaj Formation, due to its area in Damavand Drainage basin, has the largest share in sediment production. Manuscript profile

        Soil erosion is one of the major environmental concerns of the present century. This issue has become a major problem to the environment and natural resources, so that statistics indicate that soil erosion in Iran is several times more than global average. This research was carried out with to investigate the factors affecting the Varak area erosion and its risk zonation using the EPM method. For this purpose, field visits and satellite images studying were used to investigate the erosion. Then, the information layers of the area including average slope, soil and rock susceptibility to erosion, land use and observational erosion were prepared, and information layers were weighted and the erosion risk susceptibility map was prepared. In addition, the results from the risk zonation of the region show that 6.3, 55.2, 26, 3.1 and 9.4 percent of the region are at the erosion risk classes of very low, low, moderate, severe, and very severe, respectively. Based on the zoning, the focus of the erosion-sensitive areas are in the southwest, northwest, and a part of the north of the region, which is consistent with the fossilized and fractured parts of the Asmari lime, which has a higher slope. Considering the field observations, investigating the precision measurement of the method used to prepare the potential erosion risk map of Varak watershed indicates that the EPM method has a fairly high precision.

Primary experiments of the stream water samples showed Heavy Metal concentrations were several times higher than standard ones. The purpose of this research is that with attention to Heavy Metal pollution of the water samples, are the soils polluted with these metals. If answer is positive, which soil properties are related to these metals?  For this purpose, after field investigations and the soil sampling and analyses of soil physico-chemical properties and heavy metals, correlation coefficients and cluster analyses of data were determined. Results showed that Cu with OC and Al, Cr, and Mn with clay percentages of soil samples had positive correlation. Five main clusters were determined with cluster analysis that was in agreement with correlation coefficients. Positive correlations between clay and OC of the soil samples with some metals indicate that these 2 soil components with metals fixing, reduce their release into environment. Other researches are necessary to determine geology and anthropogenic sources of these metals. Manuscript profile

        The limitation and scarcity of groundwater resources in Darab Fars plain has caused this plain to be in a critical situation and in the forbidden group. With proper management, the capacity of available surface and groundwater resources can be well identified and studied to make a comprehensive plan for their proper use. The use of GIS along with observational data leads to easy and systematic estimation of groundwater recharge areas. The purpose of this study is to identify the potential of groundwater resources using AHP model and fuzzy functions in GIS environment. To assess the potential of groundwater resources, 10 geological criteria, fault density, altitude, slope, land use, soil, geomorphology, precipitation, drainage density and distance from rivers were studied and analyzed. The layers were prepared in a GIS environment and then the potential of groundwater resources was modeled using fuzzy logic functions. The results showed that the use of 0.98 gamma showed more favorable results than other numbers. Areas with high groundwater potential were determined with high accuracy. To validate the model, exploitation wells in the region have been used. About 63.62 percent of this type of wells are located in areas with good and very good potential. Areas with good and very good potential correspond to the terrace reserves, alluviums and sediments of the fourth period and have a low slope (0-5 degrees). About 31 percent of the watershed is in two categories of good and very good potential. Manuscript profile

        One of the periods and culture in northwest of Iran which is of little attention is the period of Chalcolithic and Dalma pottery tradition. Unfortunately our information about this period is so slight and it is limited to some brief essays and reports. This pottery tradition have relatively vast extension basin from northwest to central Zagros, and it includes painted, manipulated decoration (Incised, Impressed, Punched and Adjunct), plain pottery with red slip. It seems that painted potteries are the continuation of previous period, Hjifiruz, and potteries with manipulated decoration don’t have any record in the area and probably entered this area from another area. Unluckily, although various models and views about the extension of Dalma tradition has been presented, there is no information about how it has been extended. Has the extension of this pottery been occurred by the migrations or nomad? Has the transmission of Lightness The idea been influential in the meantime or other factors? This obscurity still remains in force because of the lack of accurate territorial and extraterritorial investigations. Manuscript profile

        The current research aims to investigate the impact of Pabarja programming on information technology, aerospace technology and biotechnology in the Islamic Republic of Iran. In this research, the policy making tool of Pabarja programming has been used as post-programming methods. The fields of information technology, aerospace technology, and biological technology have been the studied examples. Developmental policy documents in these three areas have been analyzed. Based on the results, the policies were divided into four categories: very strong, strong, partially strong, and non-strong. Instrumental policies in the country's technological development documents were compared in three studied fields. Based on the results of the information technology document, it is more durable than the other two documents, and the bio-technology document has the lowest degree of durability. In the bio-technological document, not only the level of persistence is low, but they also do not have correlation with each other, and the things that were important in the document have less persistence. The comparison between dependence on technological fields and dependence on scenarios shows that policies are more dependent on scenarios than on technological fields. Manuscript profile

        Financial markets are among the influential markets in the economy of every country. Stock market booms and crashes in some countries not only influence their national economies but also have impacts on the global economy. Study of performance of stock market and stock price index and their effects on economic factors are among issues increasingly being focused by economic and financial researchers.Up to now many studies has been conducted on the causal relationship between stock market indices and economic variables in various countries. These causal relationships have confirmed in some studies and they have rejected in other ones. The innovation of present research is study of Granger causality in frequency domain about which there are no comprehensive studies especially in Iranian context. Present study addresses the causal relationship between gross domestic product (GDP) and stock market variables including stock price index, financial index and industry index in Iranian context and explores if predictive power is concentrated on lower frequencies or higher ones. Main goal of present study is to employ stock market indices to develop a model for prediction of GDP. Results from present study showed that in Iranian context there was no causal relationship between GDP and selected variables related to stock market in frequency domain and stock market indices cannot be used to predict GDP.

        The post-occupancy evaluation (POE) method has been considered worldwide for about 60 years. Despite its extensiveness, many benefits, and wide scope of its use, it is very new in Iran, and detailed and complete studies have not been done in architecture. Post-occupancy evaluation is a process that evaluates building performance after occupancy. It involves using technical, behavioral, and functional observations to monitor and measure the built environment. POEs provide scientific data on architectural design effectiveness. Despite being around for over 60 years, detailed and complete studies on POE in architecture have not been conducted in Iran. Although POE offers many advantages over the traditional evaluation process and has been widely used, many designers refuse to utilize this process. In Iran, POE is mainly used as a subject for academic research, and builders, designers, and users do not benefit from its results. In this systematic review, we conducted a literature search on POE methods to gain a better understanding of the existing POE practices of buildings in Iran. To carry out this review, we used seven databases and search engines, including Civilica, SID, Noormags, Elmnet, Magiran, Irandoc, Google Scholar, and typeset artificial intelligence. We used three Persian and two English keywords (POE, Post-occupancy Evaluation), and 1473 cases were discovered as primary results, which were evaluated during several stages. After eliminating duplicate cases, 52 cases were selected and categorized based on the subject of evaluation, city, year of implementation, research method for data collection, and type of research. The results of the review of the articles are described below. Considering the geographical extent of Iran and the existing climate diversity, the largest number of evaluations have focused on existing buildings in hot and dry climates, and few examples are available in cold, moderate, and humid climates. No evaluated sample has yet been found in hot and humid climates. The number of articles and POEs for any climate cannot reach correct and decisive results based on the climatic conditions. The reviewed articles were either theoretical studies that deal with the methods and definitions of POE, or they were case studies. However, the number of case samples used in each research was limited to one building or a small number, which could make it challenging to generalize the results to other buildings. Although questionnaire-based surveys and interviews with residents have been commonly used as subjective data collection techniques, there is a lack of information about the specific questions posed to participants, methods of questionnaire delivery, or details about response times and rates. The difficulty in fully understanding the research context in questionnaires and interviews has hindered the ability to replicate or enhance the planning and implementation of POE research in the future. A variety of methods have been used to collect data, but the literature review and the preparation and distribution of questionnaires have been used more than other examples. In the next stages, interviews, observations, and two examples of energy and simulation methods have been seen in articles. To obtain more practical results, it is essential to consider new methods or the combination of various methods in POEs used in other countries and take advantage of their experiences in carrying out POEs in Iran. Regarding POEs, residential and educational budlings have received the most attention, followed by the types of accommodation, including dormitories, hotels, and urban spaces, which have been of interest. Functions related to tourism, treatment, and official and historical monuments have been repeated minimally, and no research has investigated other building functions. In recent years, several POE activities have been conducted in Iran. This article aims to provide a comprehensive overview of these activities. It categorizes the data collection tools, geography, and types of use, along with the items to be evaluated, evaluation elements, and types of evaluation levels used in previous studies. By analyzing the structure of the articles and their outcomes, the article helps researchers identify gaps in the field of POE in Iran. It provides a roadmap for future POE studies by highlighting areas needing re-evaluation, examples requiring further evaluation, and topics not yet evaluated. By following the guidelines and criteria provided in this study, researchers can ensure better architecture and brighter outcomes. Manuscript profile

        Dynamics, change and evolution are the characteristics of the geographic space. In this context, one of the fundamental strategies for managing geographic space can be to divide space into smaller spaces. The topic of space division is presented in the form of a system of division of the state. In general, the main purpose of this process is to provide the foundation for geographical geography and environmental justice in geographic space. Hence, from the point of view of applied political geography, a balanced division of the country into the administrative and political divisions seems to be necessary. In our country, given the nature of the rule of law and the requirements of the natural and human environment, many of these divisions have undergone and changed. In the framework of the above approach, the purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of formal, legal and scientific components in promoting the city of Kashan and the surrounding area to the level of a province.

        Flood is one of the natural disasters which every year cause to great life and property damage in different parts of world. Determination and prioritization of flooding in sub-watersheds with the aim of setting priorities in policy and management practices, is of utmost importance. In present study sub-watersheds of Taleghan watershed based on flooding potential were prioritized using AHP and TOPSIS techniques. Criteria considered for prioritization were the most important criteria affecting on rainfall infiltration, runoff and flooding potential. They include sub-watershed area, compactness coefficient, drainage density, average slope of sub watershed, mean elevation of sub watershed, the percentage of impervious area, curve number, main channel slope, main channel length, and concentration time. Results indicated that the three criteria of impervious area, CN and main channel slope, respectively, with relative weights of 0.283, 0.231 and 0.163 were the most significant parameters relating to flooding potential in sub watershed. The final results derived from combination of AHP and TOPSIS also showed that among the 16 sub-watersheds of Taleghan, three sub-watersheds of Hasanjun, Narian and Shahrak, respectively, have the highest potential of flooding.

        The Kinematic runoff and erosion model, KINEROS2, is an event-oriented, physically-based model to describe the processes of interception, infiltration, surface runoff and erosion from watersheds.DEM, land use, soil type and precipitation are main input data required for this model. Time scale of the KINEROS2 model is capable of simulating the flood hydrograph on a time minute. For evaluation of KINEROS2 Model, 8 rainfall-runoff flood events in the Ziarat watershed were selected. The events have been divided into two sets. The first set was used to run and calibrate the model and the second set was used to validate the model results. One factor at time (OAT) method has been used to carry out sensitivity analysis. The Saturated hydraulic conductivity, Manning roughness coefficient, mean capillary drive and interception depth have been chosen for manual calibration of the model. Various evaluation criteria including Nash-Sutcliffe, percent error in peak, aggregated Measure, coefficient of determination r2 and weighed coefficient of determination r2 were used to evaluate the model results. Results showed that the Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency is 0.665 for calibration period and 0.797 for validation period. The KINEROS2 model estimates the hydrological parameters with good accuracy in the study area. Manuscript profile

        Golabdarreh- Darband watershed is one of the watersheds of north of Tehran which pay special attention to management of these basins due to flooding of these basins to Tehran city and its potential financial and life threat. In this research, HEC-HMS software has been used to determine the response of this watershed to floods before and after the watershed operation. Taking into account the lack of ability to determine the rainstorm corresponding to the time period before and after the flood control operations carried out in the watershed in order to investigate the studies of floods caused by single rainstorm, the investigation and statistical analysis of the rainfall and flood data related to the rain gauges and hydrometers stations located in Gulab Dareh-Darband watershed were closed and simulation of the watershed was done in the HEC-HMS software environment, so that after simulating the watershed, the flood caused by the watershed can be measured to the maximum 24-hour rainfall for the return period of 10, 25 and 100. The results of the simultaneous assessment of rainfall and flood in the studied watershed, before and after the implementation of the watershed projects, showed that the watershed operations had a direct effect on reducing floods, increasing flood infiltration and controlling it, and this effect on floods with a high return periods, there have been more so that the flood peak discharge and flood volume in the 10, 25 and 100 year return periods, after the implementation of the watershed projects, shows a decrease of 10, 27.4 and 40 percent, respectively.

        Abstract Identification,  evaluation  and  prioritization  of  different  areas  can  produce  valuable information for the watershed comprehensive plans, soil conservation and mitigation of the erosion types based on amount of erosion and sedimentation. This study used the MPSIAC and EPM models as a comparison and prioritization to estimate erosion and sediment   in   the   Aro   Watershed   Basin.   Required   data   regarding   the   natural characteristics  of  studying  the  watershed  basin  was  provided  from  comprehensive studies  of Hableh-Rood  basin  and  field  studies.  By using the required  factors,  the amount of erosion was calculated in both the models. In the MPSIAC model, erosion was calculated to be 451 m3/km2/y, whereas sediment was calculated as 233 m3/km2/y. However, the rate of erosion in the EPM model was estimated to be 378 m3/km2/y and for sediment, it was 200 m3/km2/y. The results showed that in some subbasins there was good correlation between the MPSIAC and EPM models, however in areas with high erosion the EPM model has less certainty than the MPSIAC model. The highest area was moderate class in the both of models and both of erosion and sediment in terms of spatial distribution. The results showed that EPM and MPSIAC model have not good agreement in the all classes. Prioritization of the hydrologic units showed that A4 unit in the EPM model and A-1-4-3 unit in the MPSIAC model allocated maximum of amount of erosion and deposition, in this area.

        Several methods are exploited to watermark digital images as a safety measure for storing information, but an attacker can destroy the information by cropping a segment of the watermarked image or doing salt and pepper noise. In recent years, numerous schemes were proposed that reduce the impact of such attacks. A new method has been proposed to confront cropping attack and salt and pepper noise that is carried out using two Sudoku tables. In this method, the watermark image is scattered in two Sudoku table layouts with different solutions and is watermarked in the host image with Least Significant Bit(LSB). Using this method, the watermark image is repeated 81 times in the host image, and to this effect the watermark image can be reconstructed using other segments when cropped or salt and pepper noise by the attacker. Both Sudokus used in this paper are in the classic 9x9 form and using this method, resistance to cropping attacks increases up to 98.8% and resistance to salt and pepper noise increase up to 80% Manuscript profile

        With rapid development of digital technology, protecting information such as copyright, content ownership confirmation has become more important. In image watermarking, information of the image is inserted such that the visual quality of the image is not reduced and the receiver is able to get the required information. Some attacks such as image cropping, destroy the watermark’s information. In this article, a new watermarking scheme is proposed which is robust against tough cropping. In the proposed scheme, classic Sudoku table which is a 9*9 table, has been used. One feature of Sudoku table is that Sudoku's limitations cause uniform scattering of symbols or numbers throughout the table. In the proposed scheme, Sudoku table and both watermarking approaches based on spatial domain and transform domain such as DCT and DWT are used. Lack of using of soduko solution at the stage of extraction and finding correct solution to obtain watermark, is innovation of this scheme. Robustness of watermarking against cropping attack is up to 92%, which shows good and effective performance of the proposed scheme. Manuscript profile

However, CZTS devices show poor efficiency and identifying deficiencies and making improvements is necessary. In the present study, various anti-reflection coatings at the top surface of the solar cell were proposed. Minimization of the reflectance is carried out to optimize the thickness of ARC layers using Lumerical software. The density of the short-circuit photocurrent increases from 18.4 mA.cm−2 for solar cells without an antireflection coating to 36 mA.cm−2 for those with MgF2 layer coating. Manuscript profile

        Considering the widespread use of diagrid systems in high-rise buildings, it seems necessary to investigate the behavior of this structural system against the wind and control comfort criteria based on acceleration. The purpose of this research is to compare the comfort criterion based on acceleration in the diagrid system with the tube system. For this purpose, the effect of various parameters such as the acceleration of floors and base shear under dynamic wind load has been evaluated. It is expected that the performance of the diagonal network will be evaluated with a more detailed understanding of the diagonal network in tall structures and the evaluation of the performance and comfort criteria based on the acceleration against the wind load using the dynamic analysis of time history using Cholsky, ergodic and AP methods. Investigations show that the acceleration of the diagrid system floors, based on the ASCE7 wind dynamic response prediction equations, has exceeded the permissible limit of the ASCE 7 regulation of milli-g20. This article is due to the overestimation of ASCE 7 equations compared to the results of wind time history analysis. So, in the 50-story structure, the maximum acceleration of the roof obtained from the ASCE equation is 71.83 times the results of the dynamic analysis of wind time history, and in the 70-story structure, it is 2 times, and in the 100-story structure, it is 1.87 times the results of the dynamic analysis of the wind time history.

        In this study, we assessed the performance of a concrete bridge under the dynamic strain of an earthquake in the near and far domain of earth’s faults. With respect to available data and showing the effects of key factors and variables, we have examined the bridge’s performance. The modelling of a double span bridge has been done in CSI Bridge software and has been compared and examined to assess the capability of a bridge under the strain of a close-to-fault-line earthquake and a far-from-fault-line earthquake. Timeline interpretation was done on the resulting models and from 7 records from the past earthquakes and it was observed that the close to fault line earthquakes caused much bigger displacements when compared to far from fault line earthquakes. Bridges which are separated by a quake separator, have an acceptable response to far from fault line earthquakes. This means that by disassembling these bridges, the acceleration rate on the deck, the cut of the base, as well as the relative displacement of the deck relative to the undivided bridge, is reduced. This issue is not reflected in the response of the bridges to faults near earthquakes. By investigating the record of near-earthquakes, it was observed that these earthquakes produced large displacements to earthquakes that are far from faults, which could make the isolation system more critical, so, to avoid this event, it FDGM should be used to reform the response these bridges have to the earthquake. Based on these results, it can be stated that the displacements near the fault and with the effect of progressive movement will be greater than the distances from the fault, so that for the ratio of different distances from the fault, the lower this ratio is, the maximum displacement of the bridge and the maximum cutting force will also be greater.

        In this study, 4-, 8-, and 12-Story steel special concentrically braced frame (SCBFs) structures were considered in area with high seismically hazard and soil type II according to Iranian's 2800 code provision. Structures are residential use and have regularity in plane and vertical distribution. Structures were modeled using Sap 2000 software to investigate the effect of self-centering ‎motion under seven near-field earthquakes. All models assumed with and without dual system controlling provisions. The results of this research indicate that without dual system provisions, considering the self-centering ‎motion in ‎4-, 8-, and 12-Story SCBFs‎ reduces base shear of structures in contrast with increasing deformation of top floor and column axial force. In average, the self-centering ‎motion‎ dissipate energy more than fixed base one. With controlling dual system provisions, considering the self-centering ‎motion in ‎4-, 8-, and 12-Story ‎SCBFs‎ reduces base shear of structures, whereas increases deformation of top floor ‎and column axial force. Moreover, in this case of study, energy dissipation are more than with controlling ‎one. Considering the self-centering ‎motion in ‎8-, and 12-Story ‎SCBFs‎ reduces base shear of ‎structures and top floor deformations, meanwhile column axial force‎ was increased. It can be seen that in ‎4-, and 12-Story ‎SCBFs considering code provisions had a better results, whereas in ‎8-Story ‎SCBFs ‎neglecting code provisions was accepted. Manuscript profile

        In recent years, considering vertical movement in structures, which is known as self-centering motion, is one of the methods used to dissipate the earthquake energy. In this study, 4-, 8-, and 12-Story steel structures with special concentrically braced frame (SCBFs) and eccentrically braced frames ‎(SEBFs) ‎were considered in order to investigate the effect of self-centering ‎motion under seven near-field earthquakes using Sap 2000 software. The results of this research indicate that considering the self-centering ‎motion, the behavior of structures are changing in SCBFs and SEBFs. In ‎, 4-, 8-, and 12-Story SEBFs structures with considering the self-centering ‎motion, the column and bracing ‎forces were increased which this was different with SCBFs ‎ structures. Considering the self-centering ‎motion, more plastic joints are formed in the beams. Therefore, in the self-centering ‎of the columns, the beams outside the bay are more affected. In general, the results indicate that the self-centering ‎motion is better in the SCBFs. Manuscript profile

        Frictional pendulum systems are one of the most widely used isolation systems. Frictional isolators are of the common type of the conventional isolators. Among this group, the frictional pendulum isolator has an important situation. Due to the advent of these systems in recent years, no significant research has been carried out regarding the design and analysis of this type of isolator. Therefore, in this study, an attempt has been made to fully study the behavior of frictional pendulum seismic isolators by examining this separator with variable curvature under near-field earthquake. In order to evaluate the seismic behavior of frictional pendulum separators with variable curvature, firstly, different geometric functions were selected for the non-spherical slip surface and the relationships required for their dynamic analysis were obtained. Then, a numerical model was presented to analyze the time history of the structure isolated by these isolators and the behavior of frictional pendulum isolators with variable curvature was simulated using MATLAB software. The results of this simulation for the three isolators including fourth order function (O4), sixth order function (O6) and FPS indicated that the frictional pendulum isolators perform better than FPS isolators. When structures are exposed to earthquakes with low intensity level (far-filed), the most suitable function to improve the optimal performance of an isolated structure is fourth order function and when the structure is subjected to severe earthquakes (near-filed), the sixth order function will perform well.

        Considering the widespread use of diagrid systems in tall buildings, it is necessary to investigate the behavior of this structural system against the wind and control comfort criteria based on acceleration. According to different regulations, it is evident that there is not much guidance for the design of this structural system and its requirements have not yet been included in the design regulations. Therefore, one of the most important goals of the current research is to investigate and use the Diagrid structural system as one of the modern structural systems in high-rise buildings. Another goal of this research is to compare the performance of the diagrid system with the environmental pipe system. Accordingly, the effect of various parameters including the acceleration of floors and shear of the base under dynamic wind load has been evaluated. It is expected that the performance of the diagonal network will be evaluated with a more detailed understanding of the diagonal network in tall structures and the evaluation of the operation and comfort criteria based on the acceleration against the wind load using dynamic time history analysis applying Cholesky, ergodic and AP methods. The results have been compared with the formulas of the ASCE7 regulation and the AIJ-GBV-2004 and ISO 10137:2007 comfort criteria and the National Building Code of Canada (NBCC). These investigations indicate that the acceleration of the diagrid system floors based on ASCE7 wind dynamic response prediction equations, has exceeded the permissible limit of ASCE 7 regulation by 20 milli-g (20Gal). This is due to the high estimation of ASCE 7 equations compared to the results of wind time history analysis. In such a way that in the 50-, 70-, and 100-story buildings, the maximum accelerations of the roof obtained from the ASCE 7 equation are 1.83, 2.07, and 1.87 times the results of the dynamic analysis of wind time history, respectively.

        With the disintegration of the Soviet Union in 1991 the littoral states of the Caspian Sea got independence. These countries got a new and special geopolitics، economic، security and cultural position. The birth of the new states brought a change in international system. The big powers and the littoral and contagious states also faced new problems. The presence of extra-regional powers like the United States and its allies like Israel، Turkey and Azerbaijan added to the complicacy of the problems. There are international issues which have its impact on the Caspian Sea region. These issues are the expansion of NATO towards east، the installation of missile defence shield in Eastern Europe with the aim of extension of their influence to the Caspian Sea region. The attitudes of Iran، Russia and China towards the developments of this region are among the important developments which have so far taken place. Some of the observers believe that a new cold war has started. The main question which the present article is raising is what are the obstacles and challenges before the security regime of the Caspian Sea region? The hypothesis of the article emphasizes on the point that the competition of the United States، Russia، China and Iran has created obstacles and challenge for the formation of security regime of the Caspian Sea security regime. The article is also examining the repercussions of these competitions on the process of formation of security regime of the Caspian Sea region. Manuscript profile

        Abstract: In the past thirteen years the question of nuclear issue of Iran has become one of the important issues in the Middle East. Iran, the United States and the littoral states of the Persian Gulf are the actors who are concerned with security repercussions of the nuclear issue. The position of the United States and the Arab countries of the south of the Persian Gulf is opposition to peaceful Iranian nuclear program. The question raised by the present article is why the United States tried to emphasize that the nuclear program of Iran is a threat to the countries of the region and there existed security problem? The underlying hypothesis is that the securitization of the nuclear issue of Iran along with Iran phobia project can ensure the United States strategic interests in the Middle East particularly the Persian Gulf region. The impression of the Arab countries of the Persian Gulf region has also shaped on the basis of these propagandas. The present article examines the above issue within the framework of aggressive realism.  Manuscript profile

The purpose of this research is to analyze the components of human resources' cyberloafing in the health field of Iraq. Research method: The research method was conducted in two phases: qualitative (thematic analysis) and quantitative (survey). The research community in the first phase was all the published texts between 2013 and 2023, of which 250 works were examined as a sample and the validity of the research data was confirmed through an external audit. The statistical sample of the quantitative part was 156 employees of health organizations in Iraq who were selected based on Cochran's formula. Through the researcher-made questionnaire based on the first phase, the data of this section were collected. In the quantitative section, structural equation modeling and second-order confirmatory factor analysis were used to analyze the data. Findings: The results of this section included 4 overarching themes including loitering behaviors, negative consequences of loitering, functions, and causes of loitering, 9 organizing themes, and 73 basic themes. Conclusion: One of the important issues that Iraqi health managers should pay attention to is the reduction of virtual roaming behaviors in order to reduce its negative consequences in the workplace.

        The genus Cotoneaster L. belongs to the genus Rosaceae. In the study, 17 plant samples were examined based on morphological studies and the nucleus sequence of ITS nrDNA. The results showed that there was a significant difference between all quantitative morphological traits. The studied species were classified into five groups. The pattern of species analysis based on morphological traits and molecular sequencing are very similar. There are similarities and differences between the studied species in terms of the studied traits. Molecular cladogram showed that the genus of Cotoneaster with consistency index (CI) is 0.68. Among some species of this genus such as C. pseudodiscolor and C. discolor, morphological similarity of traits such as leaf shape, density of lower surface hairs, and hairs on the fruit is observed, If it is genomically different and because it is not morphologically consistent with the description of the identified species of milk thistle in Iran and neighboring countries. Therefore, we consider it as a new species for Iran and define it as C. pseudodiscolor. In addition, the species C. morrisonesis and C. franchetti are a new record of this genus and have a separate cluster in their phenogram. , the present study is the first study in the field of genetic diversity in Iran (Hyrcanian province) using nuclear markers (ITS) in accurate species identification Is the first step in breeding this valuable taxon, which will be addressed in the present study.

        This study presents the appropriate zoning for recreational activities along Karaj river basin, with a case study on Shahrestanak River. Shahrestanak Village is located in Alborz Mountains and therefore is a high mountainous region. The Shahrestanak River originates from northern slopes of 3930 meters high Tochal Mountain; it is 18 km long and its river discharge, according to annual statistics, is of the order of 30 million m3/s, which supplies Karaj Dam to a great extent. In this research GIS was used to prepare maps for extensive and centralized recreation zoning. Factors of slope, direction, height, soil, and climate were taken into account and classified for zoning of Karaj river basin. Results of the study showed that, 2.05% of the total area of Shahrestanak river basin has zones with adequate potential, 43.19% of the area has zones with relatively adequate potential and 54.73% of the river basin is potentially inadequate for summer intensive (centralized) tourism. Regarding winter intensive (centralized) tourism, 2.07% of Shahrestanak river basin area has zones with adequate potential, 31.67% has zones with relatively adequate potential and 66.27% of the river basin is potentially inadequate for this purpose. However, for extensive tourism, 13.16% of Shahrestanak river basin has zones with adequate potential, 88% has zones with relatively adequate potential and 17.36% of the river basin has zones with inadequate potential. As findings indicate, due to the mountainous condition and high altitude of Shahrestanak region, has a potential for extensive tourism and should be considered as a priority for the area. In addition, the zoning results indicate that only the river banks may have adequate and relatively adequate potential for summer and winter intensive (centralized) tourism. Manuscript profile

        Recently, the ecology of the Caspian Sea has undergone with increasing development of human activities and industrial wastewater discharges. Heavy metal compounds are undegredable pollutants and are able to accumulate in the environment. They can affect the food chain and biological individuals such as fish species. 40 and 22 samples of Rutilus frisii kutum and Liza saliens were collected in central and eastern parts of southern Caspian Sea in 2008, respectively. All samples were analyzed based on standard methods using Atomic Absorption instrument (Thermo, M5 model). Results of this study showed that the amount of Zn in fish muscle of L. saliens was maximum (415.3±196.3 µg/g. dw). The concentrations of Cu, Ni, Pb, Cd and Hg in fish muscle of L. saliens were 10.85 ±11.02, 0.41 ±0.84, 2.63 ±2.67, 0.63 ±1.07 and 1.30 ±0.16 µg/g. dw, respectively. The concentrations of Cu, Ni, Pb, Cd and Hg in fish muscle of R. frisii kutum were 0.40 ±0.46, 0.0132 ±0.007 and 1.26 ±0.75 µg/g. dw, respectively. 7 heavy metals were below the established limits of different countries. The pearson correlation analysis showed that between Zn and Hg there were a significant negative correlation indicating a decrease of Hg toxcicity with increasing Zn concentration. THQs for individual metals were lower than USEPA guidelines value of 1 in young and adults human. Thus, consumption of 6 kg R. frisii kutum and/or L. saliens per capita cannot be risky for young and adults consumers. Manuscript profile

        Background and purpose: monitoring of elections in each country is done in a special way; Based on the method and style of regionalization of the United States, which consists of many states, the method of holding a broad election such as the presidency in all states will not be in a specific way and in line with homogeneous policies. In America, special commissions supervise the elections. These committees operate under the supervision and guidance of the "Federal Election Commission" and according to the law of the Federal Election Commission, supervisory actions are mostly focused on advertising and election expenses, and even candidates' qualifications are not monitored.Method: The current research is documentary and library in terms of research tools and descriptive-analytical in terms of analysis method.Findings and results: The partisan and factional interests of members of the state legislatures can leave a tremendous impact on the political fate of the entire United States people with electoral districting. Of course, drawing the boundaries of electoral districts is considered part of the authority of each state, and although in 32 of the 50 American states, this task is entrusted to the state legislatures, whose final approval is often subject to the approval of the state governor, but in the rest The states have become independent institutions responsible for this, although the output of their actions ultimately requires the approval of the state assembly, but it is a positive step to prevent the zoning guage.

        The subject of this research is the study of metaphorical verbs in the text of Holy Quran and their semantic nature from the perspective of cognitive linguistics on the basis of Lakoff and Johnson’s theory of conceptual metaphors. This method examines the relationship between the language of man, his mind and his physical and social experiences. Based on the contemporary theory of metaphor, a specific semantic domain is presented the context of an abstract-conceptual domain by experimental foundation mapping between the two areas of origin and destination. For example, the use of verbs such: “dominates” to express the abstract concept of “conquest”, the verb “extend” which is the spatial concept to express the abstract meaning of “time” and the verb “turning to” to express the abstract of “admission”. Considering the allegorical and metaphorical nature of the Quran’s language to facilitate the perception of spiritual concepts and the difficult meaning that could not be described directly to human beings, many of the verbs in Holy Quran have been based on human physical experiences of communicating with the world around them and providing areas for effective communication and perception of the verses. In this way, the study of the cognitive and conceptual domains of this verbs will provide new curable ways to achieve a systematic and precise semantic framework for the further perception of this spiritual treasures of human history.

        Following the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, the Black Sea region was less geostrategically significant from a Western perspective, but it remained instrumental in shaping Russia’s concept of its “near abroad.” For Russia to achieve these long-term objectives, its supremacy in the Black Sea is a critically enabling factor. The unique geography of the region confers several geopolitical advantages to Russia in its confrontation with the West. As such, the Kremlin has sought measures to strengthen its hold over the region. Firstly, it has sought to weaken NATO’s ties to the regional states, working to drive wedges into these relationships, and using military force when necessary to stop the Alliance’s expansion. Secondly, it has been expanding its military capabilities in order to challenge NATO’s presence in the region and ultimately dominate the Black Sea.Russia has pursued highly aggressive policies in order to secure its dominance over the Black Sea region. What Moscow must bear in mind however, is that control over the region is not an end in itself, but the means to achieve a greater objective – to keep out NATO interference. In this regard, Russia’s measures have somewhat backfired. Concerned over Russia’s rising belligerence, NATO at the recent Warsaw Summit pledged to increase Allied military presence in the region. Besides strengthening Allied capabilities in the air, land, and sea, there will be increased allied visits to Romanian and Bulgarian ports, and enhanced inter-Alliance training and exercises.

        In this research, a practical method for finding modal parameters in structures is investigated. At first, two methods in the frequency domain called FDD and EFDD frequency domain analysis methods and a time domain method called SSI are defined. In order to check the accuracy of these methods in identifying the modal parameters of real structures, a three-story structure modeled in Ansys software will be used. This structure was modeled by Ansys software and the correctness of the model performance was confirmed by comparing the results of modal analysis of the structure with the results of experimental tests. The acceleration response obtained from the created model is given as an input to environmental modal analysis methods, whose responses are compared with actual results. It was observed that all three methods could estimate the frequencies, mode shapes and damping coefficients of the structure with high accuracy. It is also observed that using the SSI method is easier, but the FDD and EFDD methods need less time to solve. Manuscript profile

        Evaluating pile performance against seismic loading is one of the most important issues in geotechnical engineering. Various approaches are used in the evaluation of this performance, which can be referred to as continuous and discrete approaches. In the continuous approach, two-dimensional and three-dimensional analyzes can be used. One of the very important disadvantages that can be pointed out in the three-dimensional analyzes of piles is the increase in computational costs. Therefore, improving the accuracy of two-dimensional analyzes in order to reduce computational costs is inevitable. The present study has used Abaqus finite element software to evaluate the response of a single pile embedded in single— and double-layer sand under two earthquake records (far-field and near-field). The subsequent stage involved employing the wavelet transformation technique to analyze the signal derived from the pile cross-section. The present study utilized the acceleration time histories of the pile head as the input signal for wavelet transformation. The result showed that the wavelet energy for the pile head signal was higher in the near-field record than in the far-field record. The analysis indicated an 11% and 41% increase in wavelet energy for single-layer and double-layer profiles, respectively. This increase in wavelet energy is due to the significant increase in horizontal displacement of the pile under near-field records compared to far-field records. Therefore, by implementing signal processing analysis employing continuous wavelet transformation on the horizontal acceleration of the pile section, relevant information regarding the type of earthquake records that occurred at the site can be extracted.

           This research attempted to find the best sites for development with ecosystemic and landscape ecological approaches. For this purpose, the case study was evaluated by each approach. After data collecting, quantity and quality criteria of the case study zone were quantified and became dimensionless and thereafter limitation layers based on Boolean logic were applied to the map and each approach. Regarding consistency matrices and acceptable errors and using analytical hierarchy process (AHP) principles and aggregative support system, criteria weights in every approach were figured out. Finally, using simple additive weighting (SAW) method, criteria were weighted in each approach. For development, the worked out results were sorted in four groups from high preference to low and then consequences were represented in one complex map and matrix. The complex map outcomes were confirmed by matrix diameter selection which was recommended in every approach. The results showed 4985.12 hectare appropriate areas out of 54872.3 hectares for basin development. In each approach, the most overlap was observed in the lowest preference. Manuscript profile
