Therefore, the use of historical documentation, the current events as well as the statistical data become essential for the development of this paper. Finding: the study of cultural and economic capabilities of the region, points out how the historic background of Gilan province with Russia can give rise to new perspectives on Iran-Russia relationship. Results: the cultural and economic capabilities of Gilan Province have never been taken into account seriously because of special circumstances occurring in related area. In more than five centuries of political and economic enterprises between Gilan province and its overseas Russian counterparts let them to claim that they have enough cultural notions to share with. Above the ethnic similarity there are for example, several common words and expressions that both languages share from each other as well as the North South Transport Corridor (NOSTRAC) that runs from Russia to India through Caspian cost to increases the trade connectivity. Thus we can assert that the Gilan province can have a pivotal role to play through the cultural relations with Russia and help to prepare the ground for strengthening the Iran-Russia relationship.

        Delta is one of the compressible forms of river alluvium which are formed at the shallow main drainage near the river banks. Suitable slope, fertile soil, availability of water supplies, and the considerable size of Polrud delta, has made it a convenient and suitable ground for human activities, and that its size may very and become larger or smaller, as a result of delta’s evolution, because of the main river’s path, and other water network changes. The outcome of this evolution can have a positive or negative effect on its inhabitant. With respect to the importance of the matter and according to the surveys done, this delta is situated and Alborz Zone and its geological events have had an affective role in its developments. In the Quaternary period, it was effected by glacial age and interglacial age eras and has followed its development’s path in the Holocen epoch ,in such a way that at the present, this delta has been formed by two topographic slopes, river banks and plain, at the shallow basin of polrud. Delta’s medium slope is less 1% and has a very wet climate, in such a way that in the spring, the maximum (54.39 percent) and in the summer, minimum (9.14 percent) sediment are deposited. This research has been carried out according to aerial photographs and satellite pictures at three time periods (1967, 1994, 2006), ground measurements, topographic maps, library references, with the use of descriptive and analytic methods. The outcomes from the researches showed that this delta is of advancing type and has been formed under the effect of old and new river processes, and also the wave functions and effects at present era; therefore, it can ranked as a modern deltas.     Manuscript profile

        Anaplasma ovis is the cause of disease in sheep and goats in many tropical and subtropical regions of the world. This study aimed to determine the Anaplasma ovis species in the sheep of Guilan province and the effect of some variables (season, age, and sex of the animal) on its prevalence. For this purpose, 200 blood samples were taken randomly from different parts of Guilan province through the veins of the sheep.  DNA extracted from blood samples was amplified with a primer pair that amplified a 1468 bp fragment of the 16S rRNA gene of the genus Anaplasma. Then the positive samples were amplified with the specific primer pair of Anaplasma ovis from the msp4 gene, which amplified the fragment of 866 bp. In total, 38 out of 200 samples (19%) were positive for Anaplasma ovis. In comparing the frequency of Anaplasma ovis in different seasons, the infection in the second six months of the year was significantly higher than in the first six months (P<0.05). However, no significant differences were observed in relation to the different ages of the investigated animals and the sex of animals (P>0.05). In this study, infection with Anaplasma ovis was confirmed in sheep in Gilan province. The study of the transmission methods of Anaplasma ovis and its vectors in Iran has remained largely unknown and requires more research in future studies. Manuscript profile

        In recent years, with the increase of environmental concerns, application of scientific and practical tools in this field has been welcomed. Universities are the most appropriate place to develop environmental activities and strive to prioritize environmental practices more responsibly. The present study examines and selects green management development strategies in the University of Guilan as one of the leading universities in green management in higher education. According to the University of Guilan situation, 14 and 17 items were examined respectively as internal factors (strengths and weaknesses) and external factors (opportunities and threats) in the green management of the university through hierarchical analysis. One of the most important weaknesses is lack of infrastructure and fundamental facilities, which have led to high consumption of energy, materials and paper due to the deterioration of buildings and equipment, lack of energy control facilities, and etc. Evaluation of internal and external factors, integration and drawing of space matrix, showed that the green management of University of Guilan is in a situation where aggressive strategies take precedence over other strategies. Offensive strategies were quantitatively evaluated and ranked based on the strategic planning matrix. The results showed that the strategies of supporting green research projects, public culture and incentive policies are the most effective and best strategies for the development of green management at the University of Guilan, respectively.

        Background and Objective: The aim of present study was to determine the economically optimal harvesting age of Loblolly Pine (Pinus taeda) in Guilan Province. Loblolly pine is one of the fast growing species that had successful growth in plantation at Guilan province. Method: For this purpose, growth data and the stumpage price of loblolly pine were used. Regression analysis was used to determine the most suitable growth model for loblolly pine. Findings: The results showed that the best relationship between volume growth per hectare and age is a third order polynomial growth model. The equation for the price of loblolly pine stumpage was estimated based on an autoregressive model. Due to the insignificancy of this relationship at the significance level of 0.05, the average stumpage price was used for various years as an estimation of stumpage price. According to the stumpage price, annual growth and interest rate, the optimal age of loblolly pine was determined based on technical and economic criteria. Discussion and Conclusion: Results showed that economically optimum harvesting age of loblolly pine varies with different discount rates. Manuscript profile

        Background and Objective: Proper estimation of the amount of sediment flowing in rivers is important as a data base for many river engineering designs and processes. Qaleh Rudkhan River is one of the most important water basins in the west of Gilan province. The most important branches of the basin are two branches named Gasht Rudkhan and Ghaleh Rudkhan. The river (Qaleh Rudkhan) is made up of two branches (Heydaralat) and (Nazaralat). Therefore, the purpose of this study was to model the prediction of sediment rate in Qaleh Rudkhan River using long short-term memory neural network (LSTM). Material and Methodology: In this research, the recorded Debi-sediment statistics related to the statistical period of 1381 to 1395 has been used. These statistics include daily instantaneous Debi in cubic meter per second and daily instantaneous sediment in ton per day, which are measured simultaneously. The data used to model the artificial neural network are Debi-sediment values the accuracy of the predictions was evaluated with three error criteria. Findings: The three criteria considered are AFE, FFE and n-AFE, respectively. Discussion and Conclusion: Among these criteria, the FFE criterion showed that the correlation between the model output and the measured sediment data is appropriate. As a result, the LSTM model has the appropriate accuracy to predict the amount of sediment in the two rivers of Qala-e-Rudkhan. Manuscript profile

        Abstract Background and Objective: Having information about qualitative and quantitative parameters distribution of groundwater supplies is one of most important parameters in integrated groundwater management. Thus, in this study it has been attempted to determine a proper model and input combination for estimation of quality parameters including electrical conductivity (EC), calcium (Ca) and sodium (Na) ions in aquifers of Guilans plain. Method: In this study, the data from 132 observation wells during 2001 to 2013 were used and artificial neural network (ANN) and support vector model (SVM) were applied. In the first approach, estimations were conducted according to five different combinations, including water level, distance from see, total precipitation of six months and coordinates of observation wells. In the second approach, estimations were conducted based on combination of the selected qualitative parameters of gamma test with combinations of the best input in the first part. Findings: Comparison of the results from the first part indicated that SVM model outperformed the ANN mode in the estimation of Ca, Na and EC parameters. Support vector machine error values for estimating Ca, Na and EC variables at the test period were 1.218 (meq/l), 0.867(meq/l), and 175.742 (µmos/cm), while for artificial neural network these values were 1.268 (meq/l), 0.933 (meq/l), and 186/448 (µmos/cm) respectively. The results from this part showed that adding the distance from see input improves the estimation of models in all cases. In the second part, using gamma test for measuring the nine quality parameters, the best combination of quality parameters was determined to estimate the three parameters: Ca, Na and EC. The results from the second part show that both ANN and SVM models have an excellent performance in the estimation of the three qualitative parameters. ANN model error values in estimating Ca, Na and EC variables in validation period were 0.662 (meq/l), 0.305(meq/l), and 47.346 (µmos/cm), while these values were 0.671 (meq/l), 0.356 (meq/l), and 55.412 (µmos/cm) for SVM model respectively.  Obviously, the results from ANN model in this section were better than those from SVM model. Discussion and Conclusion:Results showed that both ANN and SVM models have a great ability in predicting qualitative parameters in the aquifers. Also, in less inputs, the results of SVM model are better than those of ANN model and in more inputs it is vice versa. Results of the second section showed that gamma test is fully practical and accurate in determining the effective input combinations. Manuscript profile

        Objectives: The aim of this study was comparing the anatomical characters of leaves and petioles of 3 species of pear (Pyrus boissieriana Buhse, Pyrus communis L, Pyrus hyrcana Fedor) in Guilan Province. Materials and Methods: In this study, for anatomical study of species, at first, plant samples were collected. Then the manual section was performed in the laboratory. Carmine staining was used in order to stain the samples. After staining, slides were prepared from the cross-sectional area. For observing the transverse sections of leaves and petiole, optical microscope equipped with a scaled lens was used. Then, the data obtained from anatomical characters were statistically analyzed. Results: Leaf and petiole thickness were different among three tested species. The highest midrib thickness belonged to p < /em>. communis (682±1.11μm). The lowest midrib thickness was observed in p < /em>. hyrcana (431.66±1.05μm). Anatomical characters are effective and important in species segregation. Therefore, anatomical characteristics in different plant species will be useful in terms of taxonomic classification.     Manuscript profile

        The aim of this study is to evaluate the quality of aesthetic education of architecture students in Guilan's universities and explain its importance in shaping the aesthetic tendencies and tastes of students in the academic year of 2019-20. Due to its nature, the present research method is descriptive-analytical and in the scope of evaluation studies. In order to collect data, two types of questionnaires based on the model extracted from the qualitative part of the research, in the Likert scale and the visual questionnaire were used. The validity of the questionnaire was assessed by content validity method. The reliability of the questionnaire was assessed by Cronbach's alpha coefficient and to calculate it the 21.0 version of SPSS was used in two stages; which were 0.89 and 0.92 respectively. The results showed that, students in both levels of education have a higher level of aesthetic knowledge compared to aesthetic wisdom and competence in universities. Such a way that in the undergraduate course, the scores obtained in the field of knowledge were 3.39, in the field of wisdom were 3.12 and in the field of competence were 2.86. In the master's degree, the scores obtained in the mentioned fields were 3.57, 3.18 and 2.98, respectively. This was reflected in the significant tendency of their aesthetic manner to formal beauty. In other words, based on results, the one-sided tendency of the educational process towards the foundation of education in this field has led to the training of one-dimensional architects in an aesthetic perspective Manuscript profile

        Downy mildew is one of the most important foliar disease of field and greenhouse cultivated cucumber which caused by the Pseudoperonospora cubensis and engender significant economic damages in Iran annually. The effect of ALIADO with dose rates of 1, 2, and 3 g/l and Cyazofamid (Ranman® SC 400) at the rate of 0.5 ml/l on the control of the disease was assessed on local (susceptible) and commercial (very susceptible) cultivars in the field condition. The experiment was done in randomized complete block design with 4 replication (local cultivar) and 3 replication (PS cultivar), in Kiashahr which has a history of cucumber cultivation and downy mildew disease occurrence. Spraying was carried out immediately after the appearance of disease symptoms and was repeated at intervals of 10, 7 and 5 days. For evaluation of each treatment, data was recorded based on disease severity on the leaves from 4 plants in each plot after 10, 7 and 5 days of fungicides application. Data collected were analyzed by SPSS software and Tukey test. Results showed that fungicide application caused significant decrease in the disease severity compared with the control treatment. The disease control rates were 89.3%, 85.8% and 79.7% on the local cultivar and 86/1%, 85.1% and 77.79% on the commercial cultivar in Cyazofamid and ALIADO with dose rates 3 and 2g/l respectively after the last spraying.

        During 2016-17, we determined the extent of Verticillium wilt (VW) coverage in 49 olive orchards from five districts including of Rahmat-Abad, Rostam-Abad, Roudbar, Manjil and Lowshan (Guilan provinc, northern Iran) by using of a Geographic Information System (GIS). For estimating of the olive yield reduction due to WV, three commercial olive orchards in Rostam Abad, Roodbar and Lowshan districts which had optimal, moderate and poorly horticultural managed conditions were selected, respectively. The olive fruit yield reductions in susceptible, moderately resistant and resistant (tolerant) olive cultivars due to WV were estimated based on WV severity and index using the regression analysis. It was found that WV occurred in 28.6% of the inspected olive orchards. The WV symptoms generally become more severe as the season progresses from winter 2016 to summer 2017 (2 to 17.9%). The fruit yield reduction was estimated at 11.3 to 39.4% in districts of Rostam-Abad, Roudbar and Lowshan. Regression analysis revealed the mean fruit yield per tree decreased by 13.61, 27.23, 40.84 and 54.46 % in VW tolerant cultivar Arbequin and 19.32, 36.09, 57.97,77.29 % in VW susceptible cultivar Zard for each unit increase in disease rate (Coefficient of yield reduction % in each rate of VW infected tree).

        Guilan urban environments with various natural, historical and cultural attractions, has an extraordinary talent for developing the tourism industry, But despite tourism policies and planning, it has not been able to develop in this area. In this regard, the purpose of this study is to investigate the barriers to tourism policy in urban environments of Guilan. is The research method was qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed using contextual theory and FARAS model. The statistical population is also experts in the field of urban studies and tourism, Based on purposive sampling, 20 people were selected as the sample population. According to the grounded theory model, obstacles such as: lack of expertise, inadequate marketing, imitation of patterns incompatible with urban environments, problems in the chain of tourism services, problems of the administrative system and policy, lack of integrated tourism management within the organization Related issues, inadequacy of infrastructure and physical infrastructure, lack of use of specialized personnel were extracted, Using the fuzzy ARS model, respectively, the obstacles to the lack of integrated tourism management among organizations related to the weight of 0.490, the problems of the administrative system and policy with a weight of 0.488, imitation of patterns incompatible with urban environments with The weight of 0.477, the problems of the chain of tourism services and the inadequacy of infrastructure and physical infrastructure with the weight of 0.467, the inappropriate marketing with the amount of 0.463, the lack of specialized personnel with the weight of 0.458, the most and Have the least importance.Extended AbstractIntroduction:      The tourism industry in the cities of Iran, in terms of climate diversity, culture and ancient history, the existence of many ancient monuments and natural and scenic attractions, has very high capabilities And it is always said that Iran is the tenth and one of the fifth countries in the world in the field of tourism, But after a few decades, it is still at the bend of the first alley and again, there are obstacles in the way of tourism policy in Iran and Iranian cities, including the cities of Guilan province. In this regard, the cities of the evergreen province of Guilan in the north of the country with pristine nature, beautiful mountains and boiling springs are the ecotourism capital of Iran and a thousand colors of nature and annually receive millions of domestic and foreign tourists. However, statistics and information show that the cities of Guilan province, despite the unique diversity of climate and geography and various attractions, has not been able to find its proper place from a national and international level And barriers to tourism policy in urban environments of Guilan province has become one of the main problems in this field. Therefore, in the present study, an attempt has been made to explore the barriers of tourism policy in urban environments of Guilan province, from the point of view of some elites.Methodology:      The present research, in terms of purpose, is fundamental and applied and has an interpretive and analytical nature and in terms of method, is in the group of qualitative and quantitative research. Grounded theory method and FARAS model were used for data analysis. In this study, the systematic approach of Strauss and Corbin was used for the data theory of the foundation. Since contextualization theory was based on a purely inductive method; Therefore, instead of testing existing theories, the researcher formulates a theory himself. Therefore, the studied variables were identified and explored based on the theoretical framework and categories. In this study, sampling went to the stage of theoretical saturation; Non- probability sampling was purposive sampling. A total of 20 in-depth interviews were conducted. Interviews (between 60 and 90 minutes) were recorded and recorded and transcribed immediately.Results and discussion:       Qualitative findings showed that the semantic units of organizational incoherence and lack of proper governance as well as managerial instability and lack of long-term approach in the category of integrated tourism management among related organizations, semantic units lack of readiness and specialized capacity and knowledge and lack of link between universities. And tourism in the category of non-use of specialized forces, semantic unit of lack of quality of physical infrastructure in the semantic unit of inadequacy of physical infrastructure and infrastructure, semantic unit of lack of native pattern in the category of imitation of patterns incompatible with urban environments and semantic units of lack of illustration. Problems of branding and advertising in the category of inappropriate marketing and semantic units Lack of assignment of tourism development interests and finally weak competition-classification of services in the category of tourism service chain problems and finally semantic units of legal barriers and investment in the category of administrative system and policy problems Was placed. Furthermore, the results of FARAS model showed that barriers to integrated tourism management among organizations related to the weight of 0.490, problems of administrative system and policy with a weight of 0.488, imitation of patterns incompatible with urban environments with a weight of 0.477, problems of tourism services chain and inadequacy of infrastructure and physical infrastructure with a weight of 0.467, inappropriate marketing with a weight of 0.463, lack of specialized personnel with a weight of 0.458, the maximum and minimum Have taken on importance.Conclusion:      Concluding remarks of this study, the issue of good implementation of tourism policy in urban environments of Guilan province indicates aspects and complex factors on this phenomenon in the context of optimal and integrated management, which requires accurate analysis of barriers to tourism policy. An important achievement of this research is the obstacles that can help policymakers and managers to fill the gaps and policy barriers in the urban environments of Guilan And help increase their understanding to create the necessary conditions for the successful and competitive development of Gilan province as a tourist destination. According to the obtained results, integrated tourism management in related organizations is the most important and most important obstacle in tourism policy in the cities of this province. Finally, the results of the research are consistent with the studies of Saeedi et al. (2012), Hosseini and Taghvaei (2012). Manuscript profile

        The area under study is located in northern Iran at 36° 47’ latitude and 50° 12' longitude. It is 15 km from southeastern Deylaman. Petrological study of the kaolin mother rock (Eocene age) under a microscope shows that the rock is vitric tuff with a rhyolitic combination containing falcated and embowed glass shards. The thickness of the layer is approximately 20 meters, formed unconformably on a layer of conglomerate with a thickness of approximately 400 meters. Because the shards have a falcated and embowed shape and the percentage of reworked material within them is low, the tuff can be considered a type of pyroclastic airfall. The results of the study prove that ash falling occurred in the water. The stratabound layers show syngenetic deposits to be the main factor in the formation of the clay, bound as a result of alterations. Manuscript profile

        Sufism had enjoyed of penetration and more antiquity like other territory of Iran. Sheikh Zahed Guilani established Gnostic movement which had rarely differences with other mystical groups in Iran. However, the base of Zahediyeh's Sufism as on poverty and mendacity, but Sheikh Zahed because of  political and economical penetration which had found in Guilan, Shervan, Aran, Azarbayjan was respected by local and Ilkhani's kings.  In spite of the mass number of Sheikh Zahed folowers, Shervan's rulers was always shocked with fear and dread. Because Disciples of Sheikh were more than their forces. After joining Sheikh Safi –al - Din Ardebili to him, on the base of the heritage which Sheikh Zahed had carried to him, the mystical method was created by him. It seems, Sheikh Safi in spite of spiritual motivations and wealth had paid attention to the pecuniary of Sheikh till to increase his power in this way. Besides of this issue, Sheikh Safi, by transferring lordship  from Sheikh Zahed family to himself after getting married with Sheikh Zahed's daughter, provided the background of mixed thought of political civil of Iran for his dynasty.

        With the excessive consumption of energy and its risks, which has become a global concern, paying attention to indigenous technologies becomes more important day by day. In the process of globalization, local cultural diversities have been threatened, and among these, the concern of weakening the roots of diverse identity and especially the cultural differences belonging to rural populations has always been raised as the main challenge of international discussions in recent years. The set of these developments has been the focus of a new look at modern concepts in the field of the concept of heritage as well as museology knowledge. According to what was noticed about the evolutionary process of Eco-museums, this cultural, social and environmental phenomenon can be described as a symbolic evolution in the age of globalization. A phenomenon that initially arose due to economic reasons and then gained strength with government investment and was gradually mixed with popular participation. Further, its protection goals were emphasized and various elements were added to it. Gradually, the communication between sciences found a more prominent role in the management of Eco-museums, and educational goals were also seen in it, which is a sign of the professionalization of the concept of Eco-museums in the thinking of the 20th century. The present study was developed with the aim of explaining the role of the Ecosophical approach in promoting the sustainability of the local heritage of Eco-museums in order to answer these questions: What role does the Ecosophical approach play in promoting the sustainability of the local heritage of Eco-museums? How can eco-museums, considering this approach, while developing some of their environmental capabilities, play a significant role in the field of knowledge and understanding of the traditional space of subcultures? The framework of the research is based on the analysis of the famous French thinker Felix Guattari's point of view in the comparative study of the ecosophy concept in the relationship between the body, environment and human needs as three influencing factors on the quality of body design and based on that, the initial research model is designed. It has been laid out. Then, according to the theoretical foundations of the approaches related to the concept of eco-museum, another model is presented in relation to the interaction of the concept of eco-museum with the approaches of social-cultural Contextualism / social sustainability and architecture inspired by nature, and finally the main model of the research is based on the relationship between the two The first model was formed and their common components were extracted. This research was conducted in a comparative manner and with a qualitative approach with the help of documentary studies, in which the historical-interpretive research method was used in the part of gathering theoretical-historical foundations and the descriptive-analytical research method was used in the context of examining the sample under study (Rural Heritage Museum of Guilan). The statistical population includes all Eco-museums, and the sample population includes those eco-museums that have stylistic affinities in terms of physical and functional similarities. Finally, the analytical model of the research is designed based on the adaptation of Felix Guattari's point of view (about Ecosophy) and the approaches of Contextualism, social sustainability and ecosystem architecture. The results of the research show that there are significant similarities in the comparative comparison of each of the components of Ecosophy in the three levels of mental ecology, social ecology and natural ecology with the approaches examined (including social sustainability, Socio-cultural Contextualism and ecosystem architecture) and these similarities in Eco-museums and Especially the rural heritage museum of Guilan has been manifested in the form of objective, functional and physical similarities. Using new approaches of social sustainability and cultural Contextualism, eco-museums present a new meaning of the words heritage, protection and education to their visitors and subculture. Eco-museums can be considered as a special geographical area where cultural heritage is protected and through people's participation, they try to create a coherent network to introduce the knowledge of the past to the current and future generations. From this point of view, eco-museums are considered as spaces completely dependent on nature, which have rediscovered their form in the course of social developments. Places with real identity that are considered local, national and global capital. Manuscript profile

                    In this survey, in order to study the Coliform pollution of Shafarud River, two layers from surface and sediment were sampled in five stations. Sampling was done seasonally during a year. The pollution by standard diagnosis of Coliform was completely examined. The most pollution was found in sediment layer of delta area. Besides, the highest Coliform count was seen during summer amounting to (44.2) Coliform in 100 cm3 and Fecal Coliform (22.1) in 100 cm3 river water. In summer, due to the high temperature, growth of bacteria is more than ever and in the delta area, because of calm flowing of water and it is passing through the city and agricultural centers, and entering garbage into it, the amount of pollution has been apparently reached a high level in comparison with other parts of the rivers with rapid flowing of water.

        Leptospirosis is a multi-faceted global disease, which causes great economic and health losses to the livestock and human population of our country each year. The northern provinces of Iran are among the rainy and humid regions of Iran, and the prevalence of waterborne diseases such as leptospirosis is high in these regions. In ruminants, cattle are more susceptible to leptospirosis than small ruminants. The purpose of this study was to determine the serological prevalence of leptospirosis in slaughtered cows in Guilan province using the standard microscopic agglutination test (MAT). For this purpose, 300 blood samples were collected from slaughtered cows in Guilan province during the spring and summer of 2023. After separating the serum and sending them to the leptospirosis research laboratory, all the samples were tested by MAT method using five serotypes of Leptospira Grippotyphosa, Pomona, Icterohaemorrhagiae, Canicola and Hardjo.

        Drought is one of the most costly natural disasters in Iran and the need for a study to determine vulnerability and identify the factors affecting it in different parts of the country.The aim of this study was to compare CVI and AHP methods in assessing drought and measuring climatic vulnerability in Guilan province in order to identify its dimensions.The research method is spatial and applied in terms of purpose. In the AHP model, the importance of the resource component (R) with a weight of 0.293 is the highest and the weight of the component of geographical features (G) with a weight of 0.045 is the lowest. In the study of variables in the AHP model, the variable of total rainfall with a weight of 0.750 was the most effective variable and the variety and quality of agricultural products with a weight of 0.088 was the least effective variable according to experts. In the study of CVI components, the CVI index of the whole province was 44.5%. The CVI index had the highest rating in the resource component (R) at 56.12% and the lowest rating in the 36.94% component. The zoning of the AHP model showed that the middle part of the province, including Rasht, Saravan, Kasma, Anzali, has the highest area with an area of 42.11%. In the CVI model,the highest vulnerability is in the whole city of Talesh with an area of 15.57%.Astara and Rezvanshahr cities with an area of 20.88% were observed in a very low vulnerability class.

        Most of the settlements of Guilan province have certain natural constraints in physical development. In terms of geomorphology, these centers, in their physical development, have problems such as earthquakes, groundwater surface condition, forward and backward on the shores of the sea, flood, range of motion, etc. In many environmental management issues and land use, the most important and useful help of geomorphologist is displaying shapes and surface effects on the geomorphology maps, since the establishment and creation of settlements, above all, depend on normal conditions (geology, topographic, soils, hydrology, climate) and geographic location. Therefore, geomorphologic phenomena have a significant impact on the emergence, formation, distribution, and physical development of urban and rural settlements.This article is part of a research project under the same title (Preparing Geomorphologic Map of the West of Guilan with 1:25000 scale) which was conducted by the author in the West part of Guilan province; the results show that geomorphologic phenomena have an important role in the physical expansion of the settlements in the West of the province, some of which are the Caspian coastal sand dunes, steel wetlands (South West Astara), the Marine barracks around Choubar and Haviq, Global faults of Astara, and alluvial materials of Lavandevil, Choubar, and Haviq rivers, and range of processes, create some problems for the physical development of the settlements of the research area. Research method is based on form and process analysis on 1:25000 topographic maps, geology 1:100,000, aerial photographs, and, finally, at some stages of field visits, all the data on the land was evaluated. It is hoped that this work will provide a basis so that it would be possible to prepare these maps in broad national coverage for all the provinces, and give the report to the administrative organizations Manuscript profile

        Tree growth has a great ecological and economic importance and stem analysis is one of the reliable and widely used methods which is used to study the growth of different attributes of the trees. In the present study, we evaluated diameter, basal area, and height and volume growth of two fast growing species (namely Populus deltoides and Taxodium distichum). After falling down the trees, 5 centimeter thick disks at 2 meter intervals were collected and transported to the laboratory. The thickness of the annual rings was measured in two perpendicular directions up to1millimeter precision. The results showed that the highest value of the current growth of diameter of Populus deltoides and Taxodium distichum occurred in 4 and 6 year ages, respectively, equal to 1.5 and 5.4 cm and the highest value of the current basal area growth of Populus deltoides and Taxodium distichum occurred in 9 and 10 year ages, respectively, equal to 0.1 and 0.14 square meters. Furthermore, the highest value of the current growth of height of Populus deltoides and Taxodium distichum occurred in 6 and 9 year ages, respectively, with value of 1.3 m 3.1 m and the highest value of the current growth in the volume of Populus deltoides and Taxodium distichum occurred in 8 and 12 year ages, with a value of 0.094 and 0.1 cubic meters, respectively. Finally, there would be concluded that both of these species in such sites can meet the environmental needs such as green spaces as well as economic goals such as commercial wood product.

        Abstract Walking and enhancing walkability in the neighborhood areas may lead to increase security and social relations, accesses, neighborhood identity, the sense of community, neighborhood quality and to reduce environmental quality such as noise and air pollution.This study was to answer the question thathow the walking capability is in the city of Rasht in Guilan. In terms of practical goal, descriptive_ analytical essence, and data collection the current study is on the basis of library research and field work.For this purpose, first walking capability indicators of old and new communities were investigated. Each was compared by standard rules then optimal strategies to improve the walkability of aforementioned areas were presented. Residents of 5 new and 5 old neighborhoods that have a population of 124382 thousands were selected as a statistical society. By using Cochran formula a sample of 366 residents out of population were reselected. In this regard, because of the proximity of the number of new (61722 people) and old communities (62660 people), 183 questionnaires in new and 183 questionnaire in old neighborhoods were completed. In order to understand the gap between studied indices of residents of new and old neighborhoods, due to the nature of interval data, an independent T-Test was used. T-Test results determine that in many of the components between the two communities (respondents) there is a significant difference. In general it can be claimed that according to the field studies, as well as respondents new neighborhood in most cases than the old ones have better conditions in terms of walking capability.

        Rasht county, has been experiencing unique circumstances compared to its surrounding cities and have had a growing tendency to centralization, since the beginning of its formation. Formation of one-sided relationship and orientation of most of the vital and functional movements of the cities of the province toward the city of Rasht have led to seclusion and inactivity in other settlement points of the province. It seems that with the expansion of activities in the city of Rasht, this problem will be expanded. This study investigates the fields of centralization in the city of Rasht in three areas: administrative-political centralization, economic-service centralization, and centralization of the population. During explaining the most important symbols and instances of centralizations in mentioned areas, to reduce the centralization in the city of Rasht, orient the movements to the other points and consequently balance the movements and interactions, we use the new model Regional Development Strategy (RDS). Regional development strategy with its strategic, community-based and flexible thinking is very effective in the establishment of regional balance since this model attempts to exploit the capabilities, capacities, actions and cooperation of all the regions and organize them as well as possible.

        Cities are important tourist destinations. Many tourists visit historical monuments during their travels. But in many cases, they do not have much information about their historical geography. For this reason, they do not have deep perceptions of cities. Cities have been one of the most important social fields, throughout history, that Many historical, political and cultural challenges have occurred in them, that following these challenges, the location of cities has moved. Some of them have lost their role and importance due to natural and historical events, and perhaps cities that have gained new importance following a political decision.Guilan is one of the most important tourist destinations in Iran. But the main motivation of tourists is mainly to use the natural attractions of Guilan. Few people know how the two cities of Lahijan in Guilan Biepish and Fooman in Giulan Biepas, where the government was based of them in the past, have given up their role to a small town, Rasht, following a political decision, Or how a fishing village called Anzali is formed into a port and tourist city and this city becomes a refuge for expelled Polish, Russian and Armenian immigrants, or how with the limitation of political and economic relations between Iran and the former Soviet Union, Karganrood has declined and its inhabitants are moving to the current location of Hashtpar, which is one of the most active cities in the province today.This article tries to analyze the cities of Rasht, Lahijan, Fooman, Bandar Anzali and Talesh from the perspective of historical geography And define spatial-historical developments these cities with the aim of amplifing a deeper view of them. With the hope that this research can be a basis for a better and deeper understanding of Iranian cities and explain the relationship between historical geography, cities and tourism.The research method is documentary and field observations and the historical maps of these cities have been used to explain their historical geography.

        Geomorphic hazards have occurred continuously and throughout history in different areas of the globe and continue to do so. But we recognize these events as a danger when they threaten human settlements and cause damage to man-made buildings, facilities, and equipment. Also, since humanity has not been able to prevent the occurrence of many of these dangers, the best solution is to stay away from these dangers. However, many human settlements are placed in risky situations in terms of geomorphic hazards, which is a potential threat to them. Therefore, by identifying high-risk and safe residential areas, it is possible to prepare to deal with risks and to use safe residential areas in urban planning in future developments and constructions. Based on this, the present research was conducted with this concern to identify safe residential zones in Guilan province, which is considered a high-risk province in terms of geomorphic hazards, through spatial analysis. The research method is mixed or combined (quantitative and qualitative) and a combination of library and field methods was used to collect data and information. The results of this research showed that based on the opinions of specialists and experts, the most important geomorphic hazards that are considered as a threat to the urban areas of Guilan province include earthquakes, floods, landslides, erosion, subsidence, and liquefaction, respectively. In terms of the spatial distribution of safe residential areas, based on what was obtained from the output of the fuzzy model in the GIS software, 51.5% of the ​​Guilan province is covered by unsafe and relatively unsafe levels in terms of geomorphic hazards. On the other hand, safe and relatively safe zones cover 23.4% of the area of ​​Guilan province, and 25.1% of the area of ​​the province is covered by the medium security zone. Manuscript profile

        Rural tourism introduces new phenomena like establishment of rural heritage museums to village environment. As we know climate conditions and ethnic and racial diversities are high in our country. So, it is not surprising if our new generation has little information about socio-cultural, ethnic, tribal, architectural, city making background, and forefather’s style of living. As a result, to improve the condition, one of the ways is to introduce geographical and historical background to today’s generation to effectively introduce it to foreign tourists, consequently. The establishment of rural heritage museums can effectively indicate the cultural personality. Guilans’ rural heritage museum is a national plan and a pattern in setting up open-space museums. These museums’ can be an amalgamation of old rural and old structure, artistic works and objects, local food, play, game, and music that play an important role in changing the view toward rural culture among rural and urban visitors. The present study aims at exploring the role and effects of these museums on socio-cultural indicators. The method used is descriptive-analytic.

        Introduction   With the Islamic Revolution in Iran, people's participation in the political destiny of the country than was provided. In the election or selection of the various factions of the same process has to the election of the people involved. And during the course of this election was different from area to area. In the Research took place about the subject parliamentary elections Geography in Iran, It was concluded that a dramatic change in the border provinces of the country is emerging. The political geography of the province in Iran was named as the divergent territories, In recent years a great demand to participate in national decision-making have shown, Indicate that the republicanism effective role in strengthening the identity - the former is national rather than local identity. Due to the elections in Iran so far no scientific study of the phenomenon gerrymandering in boundaries of electoral districts has been done. In this research, the electoral participation of the Gilan province than all country, the majority of people tend to have explained the country's political factions and finally, gerrymandering phenomenon has been studied in areas of the province's vote.   Research Methodology  This paper documents the methodology and approach to descriptive - analytical issues geography of the province's election has been analyzed. Thus the first eight courses in parliamentary elections during the province of Gilan Province and the Ministry were prepared. And the statistical tables and graphs of the type of political participation and representation of each the separate spheres and Gilan province in the form of graphs and GIS maps was drawn. * Responsible Author:                                                                               Zfard@ut.ac.ir               Results   This paper examines the parliamentary electoral geography of Gilan province in elections in Iran is eight courses. In this research we examine the geographical and political significance as one of the border provinces of Gilan and marginal country landscape of the province to participate in parliamentary elections the country has been assessed; At the same time in the process of obtaining a formal representation to the ups and downs that have addressed the delegates on their way and political aspirations of the people in each electoral period of four main groups, namely the liberal right (the clergy), left (Clergymen) and has been independently assessed. Notably, of course, for certain considerations, to be divided into two sections: the first section of the first course to sixth, and the next stage of the sixth to eighth, both of which have their own characteristics. Finally, Gerrymandering phenomenon (the spatial organization of any party to provide specific benefits) has been studied in the areas of the province's area. Conclusion   The survey results show that despite the province is located in the border country. But the turnout in all elections held after the province of the eight assembly elections; the country has been higher than average percentage of participation and this convergence of people in this province, Islamic Republic of Iran. Given the tendency of factional representatives in the province; Most of the activities during this period of eight parliamentary faction of the clergy (right) has had. The power of the clergy-wing (right) in advance of your goals too high and the probability that the next government in the province and power of the clergy of all parliamentary seats to be very high. As in all the eight Assembly seats in the parliamentary faction of the clergy in the province (right) was given. In examining changes in the boundaries of electoral districts (Gerrymandering), only one area in Astanehashrafieh during the Fifth Parliament has been discovered. But it appears that such changes have occurred in other areas. But due to weakness in the election of candidates from all areas of Interior Ministry, and the lack of accurate information to researchers, the phenomenon of Gerrymandering is very difficult to do.

        One of the must important elements in the comprehensivedevelopment in any region is undoubtedly the accessibility of the sweetwater. Guilan located in southern coasts of the Caspian Sea and in northerof Alborz receiving various moist sources, is one of the densely rainedareas in Iran. The presence of different rivers along with the height of thewater table has caused the growth of economic activities dependent onwater. So the abundant of water sources has stopped the officials to thinkof accessing new sources or adapting necessary measures and policies torationalize the use of water sources. Increasing growth of population, lackof adequate instruments for job creation, traditional methods of using watersources along with unplanned development of agricultured area havecaused different problems especially in recent years that precipitation wereinsufficient. This paper has tried to consider the role and place of thewaters sources in the future planning of the State. The research methods isbased on the descriptive statistical methods and analyze of the watersources. Manuscript profile

          Introduction *Corresponding Author:       salmanim@voila.fr   One of the characteristics of our age is urbanization, increasing of urban population and developing and growing of towns and cities. The third millennium has been called urbanization age because urban population has increased from 29 million in 1800 to 2/8 billion in 2000. It is forecasted that urban population will be 3/3 billion in 2030, and 90 percent of this population will live in the third world cities. Urbanization in Gilan province has ever been less than its average in Iran but its urban system has been similar to the rest of Iran. Urban pyramid is unbalanced and unequal in Gilan, and the top of the pyramid is very narrow due to existence of big cities, and the base of the pyramid is very wide due to existence of many small towns..   Methodology This research based on studying in Guilan province is going to analyze urbanization dimensions and trends, the increase of city numbers through transformation of villages to towns, and primate city indexes in it. The type of research is applied and its method is descriptive-analytical. Required data has been collected through the results of public Censuses of Housing and Population from 1956 to 2006. Results The survey of population and urbanization in Guilan province shows that urban population were increasing from 1956 to 1986, and  had a falling trend from 1986 to 1996; in all of these periods urban population growth rate was more than rural and total population growth rate but rural population was always more than urban population. In 2006, for the first time urban population has transcended to rural population. The increase of extent and ratio of urbanization has been due to increase of rural immigration and the transformation of villages to towns. During the late five decades, Guilan province has ever faced with increasing of city numbers. The average of population of villages transformed to towns is low. Grouping of cities shows that the cities with population between 10000 and100000 have increased from 1966 to 2006, but cities with population more than 100000 haven't changed so much. The survey of numbers and population of cities in different groups shows that small towns (less than 25000 populations) have had the least population and the most numbers in all periods of Censuses. Primate city indexes in Guilan indicate that urban system is unbalanced; it means that primate city degree and centralization are high there. The main reason for this centralization is the state's policies and modernization. Conclusion Surveys indicate urbanization level in Guilan province has increased and rural population ratio has decreased in five recent decades. Rasht city (the capital of the province) has had the most urban population; within the six periods of Censuses the average of its population has been 43/1 percent of urban population of Guilan province. This unbalanced population distribution in the province is because of unbalanced distribution of services and facilities there. So it is necessary to change or improve the population settlement and settling pattern in order to achieve development.   Manuscript profile

        Introduction   With about 22 million inhabitants, rural areas of Iran contain 29% of the population in the country in 2011. During the past two decades, rural development policies of the government have aimed to improve the living conditions in rural areas. One of these policies was the preparation and implementation of rural guide plans which mainly have tried to organize the physical development within the villages.  Even though a great number of rural guide plans have been prepared over the past years, a small number of them have been put into action, mainly because of the shortage of financial resources.  Also the success of implemented plans has not been the same within the villages. The main objective of this research is, therefore, to analyze the influencing factors in the success of executed rural guide plans in the east of Guilan Province, Iran. Research Methodology *Responsible Author:                                                                       Azimi@guilan.ac.ir       The research method utilized in this study is descriptive and analytic method.  Most of the employed data comes from a field survey. Thirteen villages in which rural guide plans had been implemented were selected in the eastern part of Guilan province in the north of Iran to evaluate their achievement level in implementation process.   These villages included Dehka, Dehshal, Espili, Golsefeed, Lialestan, Moridan, Mousa kellayeh, Peerkooh, Reza mahalle, Roud baneh, Shoveel, South Chof, Tool Lot Nine of the villages were located in the plain area and four in the mountainous area.  25 person in each village and a total of 325 residents were interviewed for this research. The selected villages were evaluated for the level of achievement for plan implementation for which 18 indicators used for the analysis. Pearson correlation analysis was used to find out the causal factors for the achievement level of selected villages for plan implementation. Results   In the first part of this study, the selected villages were evaluated in terms of their achievements in the implementation of rural guide plans using 18 parameters. Based on this evaluation, the average achievement for 13 villages was 52.77%.  Among the villages, three of them including Mousa kellayeh, Peerkooh and Espili with 77.3%, 72.2% and 65.6% respectively had the biggest achievement, three other villages including Shoveel, Roud baneh and Lialestan with 55.6%, 52.4% and 51.1% had around the average achievement while the remaining villages had below the average level. The least achievement was related to South Chof village with 38%. The second part of study analyzed the underlying factors for the achievement levels of selected villages for plan implementation.  One of the main factors regarding the degree of achievement is distance from city centre and access to urban services. Despite our assumption that closer villages to city centers would have higher level of achievement, the Pearson correlation indicated that there is a significant positive relationship between distance and plan achievement level (R= 0.85). This means that the more distance between a village and the city centre, the more achievement level in plan implementation.  The main reasons for this, perhaps, could be related to the lesser expectation and higher cooperation of the residents of remote villages compared with the closer villages to city centers. Another important factor considered for the plan achievement level was the geographical situation of the selected villages. As stated earlier, four of the villages were located in mountainous region, two in the foothills and the rest in plain area. A significant correlation of     (R= 0.8) indicates that villages located in mountainous area have higher level of plan achievement. The reason for such relationship could be incorporated to the older physical structure of the buildings and the higher cooperation level of residents in these villages in comparison with the villages located in plain area. Another underlying factor for achievement level of plans is the time gap between preparation and implementation of the plan. Even though a correlation of (R= -0.43) does not indicate important relation between these variables, however, it shows a medium level inverse relationship between preparation and implementation time gap for the guide plan in a way that the less time gap between preparation and implementation of the plan, the more achievement level is for the plan From social perspectives, the most important factor in the achievement level of plans is public participation in the process of preparation and implementation of the plans.  A significant relation of (R= 0.92) indicates how public participation matters in the achievement level of rural guide plans. All of the villages with higher achievement level had higher public participation level. Villagers' knowledge about the guide plan before implementation and the objectives of guide plan with (R= 0.78 and        R= 0.72 respectively) were other important factors in the achievement level of plans. This means that if villagers know more about the plan and its objectives, probably, they might have more cooperation in the implementation process of guide plan. The last factors examined here was the size of the population.  It appears that villages with medium or smaller size population have had a better achievement level.  This could be related to the smaller amount of physical activities in smaller villages and the possibility of higher cooperation compared in them compared with larger villages.       Conclusion   This article analyzed the influencing factors in the success of the implementation of rural guide plans in the east of Guilan Province, Iran.  The main findings of the research are: 1) the geographical location of villages and their distances from cities are found significantly correlated with the degree of the success of rural guide plans. 2) Villages located in the mountainous areas with medium size population and farther from cities seems have been more successful than those located in the plain areas, closer to cities and with bigger population.  3) The knowledge of rural residents from guide plans and their participations in the preparation and implementation of rural guide plans were other important factors in achievement level rural guide plan in the study area.

        Most of the settlements of Guilan province have certain natural constraints in physical development. In terms of geomorphology, these centers, in their physical development, have problems such as earthquakes, groundwater surface condition, forward and backward on the shores of the sea, flood, range of motion, etc. In many environmental management issues and land use, the most important and useful help of geomorphologist is displaying shapes and surface effects on the geomorphology maps, since the establishment and creation of settlements, above all, depend on normal conditions (geology, topographic, soils, hydrology, climate) and geographic location. Therefore, geomorphologic phenomena have a significant impact on the emergence, formation, distribution, and physical development of urban and rural settlements.This article is part of a research project under the same title (Preparing Geomorphologic Map of the West of Guilan with 1:25000 scale) which was conducted by the author in the West part of Guilan province; the results show that geomorphologic phenomena have an important role in the physical expansion of the settlements in the West of the province, some of which are the Caspian coastal sand dunes, steel wetlands (South West Astara), the Marine barracks around Choubar and Haviq, Global faults of Astara, and alluvial materials of Lavandevil, Choubar, and Haviq rivers, and range of processes, create some problems for the physical development of the settlements of the research area. Research method is based on form and process analysis on 1:25000 topographic maps, geology 1:100,000, aerial photographs, and, finally, at some stages of field visits, all the data on the land was evaluated. It is hoped that this work will provide a basis so that it would be possible to prepare these maps in broad national coverage for all the provinces, and give the report to the administrative organizations.

        From a total of 656 broiler farms with the permission of exploitation in Guilan province, data was gathered from 20% of active farms including 85 units (Capacity of over 1663000 portions of broiler chickens) to evaluate the management of nutrition and nourish using questionnaire. The questionnaires were completed by the interview method. The methods of making feed, feed formulation, the shape of grain, the frequency of feeding, the type of dietary supplement and food additives, the use of experts, feed conversion ratio, causes of mortality, the age of mortality, drinking and feeding systems, and how to use fine nourishing (in the shape of supplement or concentrate) were considered in this study. The performance was calculated for each broiler farm. According to the production index, the farms were divided into three groups of weak (200+25), medium (250+25), and good (300+25) and their differences were compared. According to the results, among the managerial factors, the factors such as: feeding system, water quality, the conformity of ration in nutrition with the needs of commercial strains and drinking management, have the most portion in creating the three groups of good, medium and weak, among the broiler rearing farms. Thus, in the study of each group’s feeding system, the good group has the highest percentage of using automatic systems (86/60) and the weak group has the highest percentage of using manual systems. In comparing three groups regarding the drinking water quality, it was observed that good, medium and weak groups drink 92%, 61.84%, and 75% fresh water, respectively. Furthermore, in the weak group, most of the farms have used the water with tolerable hardness or saltiness. Finally, the conformity of strain’s requirement with diet was examined among groups. The results showed that 16.5% of units followed this conformity and the percentages of the good, medium, weak groups was 11.12%, 28%, 53.5%, respectively. Manuscript profile

There are no suitable risk allocation models for Guilan construction industry based on article 23 processing budget and planning law 1352 clause about (EPC).There is the cost of project and plan for design risk allocation model. This work endeavors to propose and apply a Risk Allocation Model (RAM), based on a simple mechanism for allocating critical risks to the responsible party in the project. In addition, the RAM aims to compare among projects, which is more risky. The construction of RAM is based on Delphi method for 41 risk factors, over 10 groups, are identified and used in the model development. All factors are analyzed and weighted by deploying Weighted Risk Factor (WRF) which combines the effect of a risk factor probability and its effect on time and cost. The model results identified the most important risk factors to be allocated to owner, contractor or shared between them, as well as the suitable risk action for each factor. The model is applied on a real case study through two construction projects in Guilan to test the validation. A complete comparison between the two projects is presented and a decision is introduced for contractor. The results emphasized that the model is easy to understand and use by the parties involved in construction projects. Further, it is flexibility in the event of variables.   Manuscript profile

        Abstract        Persian poetry, In its contemporary period, by focusing on structural formalistic elements, in numerous dimensions and on the way of innovation, has appeared and tries to modify itself. One of the branches of this change and rebirth is disputable in the formalistic theory. Rule increment, addition of rules on the present grammar in the daily language such as rhythm, row, pun, versification, inlay, phoneme, repetition and other literal arrays which are added to the present language have had significant impact on its evolution. In this article, we are to investigate Golchin Guilani's poetry in a formalistic way. The findings show that the poet , through rule increment, has added the musical value and structural coherence and has changed his stanzas to artistic phenomena. Using the present row, repetition, different types of versification, pun and phenomenal morpheme are the most important kinds of rule increment of Golchin's anthology in poetry which have considerably increased its melody.

        Migration is a dynamic process and the result of socio-economic changes, which can be separated and analyzed in terms of the common divisions of internal and international migrations. Internal migration is one of the main elements of changing demographic processes and the main mechanism of population distribution and redistribution. The flow of migration from cities to rural areas is a part of postmodern developments, which has economic-social-cultural, environmental and physical consequences. Existing studies and researches show that widespread and increasing migration to rural areas, physical complications such as "change In the ownership system, it will lead to "transformation in land use and the landscape of villages", "increase in the construction of second homes and the resulting physical chaos", "physical clutter", and "confusion in architecture and construction". This article investigates the physical damage caused by the migration and mobility of the floating population to the rural areas of Guilan province with a descriptive-analytical method based on documentary studies and field information collection and interviews with local experts and managers. The findings of this research showed that the agricultural levels Between the censuses of 1367 and 1390, the province has decreased by about 33%, which is undoubtedly the main reason for this is the request for land in the province and the change of its use. Construction has grown by 67% during the last decade (despite a 16% decrease in the rural population), which has resulted in numerous construction violations, while there is no reasonable balance between the province's population, resources, and infrastructure.
