        Changing land use causes changes in the soil, which in turn affect the organic matter, nutrients, and soil organisms including fungi. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are terrestrial microorganisms that coexist with the roots of a wide range of forest and non-forest plants. The diversity and distribution of this fungus are affected by the composition of plant species, soil characteristics, environmental conditions, and soil microorganisms. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of changing land use from forest to tea garden on soil chemical properties and the coexistence of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. The samples were randomly collected from forest and tea plantation areas near to the heights of Lahijan and 20 samples were collected from each area at a depth of 0-30 cm around the roots in the autumn. At the same time, fine root samples were obtained from the rhizosphere of the trees and tea bushes. The colonization percentage and the number of spores of mycorrhizal fungi, organic carbon, pH, phosphorus, and soil absorbable potassium were measured. The results indicated that the average percentage of colonization and the number of spores in the forest soil was higher than in the tea garden soil. There was a significant difference between pH and organic carbon and absorbable potassium in the soil. There was a negative correlation between the number of mycorrhiza spores and the soil absorbable potassium (r = -0.418) and soil pH (r = -0.571). There was a positive correlation between the percentage of root colonization and pH (r = 0.453 **). Finally, changing of land use and vegetation following by soil chemical properties changing, resulted in decreasing the coexistence and number of mycorrhizal fungi spores in the soil.

        Along with the expansion of the share of tourism activities in global economy, tourism in rural areas has become a mechanism for the revival of rural communities and is supported by local and federal governments. Considering the natural situation and the existence of diverse cultural context in Lahijan Region, this paper tries to identify the potentials of rural tourism in this region. The main research method in this research is content analysis and the utilized data come mainly from documents and field-based methods (deep interview). In this research, we investigate the capabilities of rural tourism in seven rural districts of Lahijan (Roodbaneh, Shirjoiposht, Lafmajan, Baskiagorub, Ahandan, Lialistan and Lil). The results of the findings show that there are 14 types of tourism attractions in Lahijan Rejion which have been distributed in seven Dehestans (Rural District) and 28 villages. Of the seven Dehestans of Lahijan Shahrestan, Lil is considered to be the most important one, and among the villages, Sarcheshmeh, Chichi-Nikoti, Sheikhanber, Azarestan and Balaji Jarankish villages are the most important villages to develop tourism activities. The existence of foothill forests, nature, rivers and hills covered with tea gardens and rice fields, hiking, fishing, and religious shrines are the most important attractions of rural tourism in the study area. Finally, the paper identifies the barriers and problems of tourism activities in rural areas, and proposes strategies for the development of rural tourism in Lahijan Region. Manuscript profile

        Architectural and urban features of the past explain the identity of cities. The study of the historical contexts of cities, the spatial structure and configuration of historical spaces, and specifically residential buildings, reveals the extent to which the structure of space affects the behavioral patterns of residents. It should be noted that the yard and open space of residential buildings are the center and core for organizing home spaces. This article was examined the yard configuration of residential buildings in the historical context of Lahijan in Sharbafan neighborhood in the twentieth decade. The research method in the present study was associated with descriptive-inferential analysis, which was done quantitatively and qualitatively. In the qualitative section, library documents were examined. In the quantitative part, first, the spatial structure of Sharbafan neighborhood was simulated based on an old photo belonging to the 1320s by Cinema 4D software. In the next step, the simulated range plan was drawn in Autocad software and dxf output was taken from it. To analyze and study the spatial organization and space syntax, and to obtain a variety of indicators of combined analysis using the axial map, among the software in this regard, by studying and reviewing, UCL Depth Map software has been used for this research. Comparing the visual and axial Intelligibility of the samples shows the superiority of the two-sided type in axial and visual Intelligibility over the one-sided and middle-sided types. The highest correlation was observed in the visual Intelligibility of the two-sided type and the lowest correlation was observed in visual Intelligibility of the one-sided type. Access to physical information and spatial structure of historical contexts through photographs allows the study and comparison of the current situation with the previous era. Analysis of spatial and physical structure of the simulated model with space syntax software makes it possible to study architecture and spaces of historical contexts. Manuscript profile

        The town of Lahijan, especially its central district’s villages is rich in terms of variety of products. Preserving agricultural lands (paddy fields) tea gardens, and berry gardens for sericulture can bring out many benefits such as  food production, healthy drinks, silk yarn, prevention of migration to town, population growth in them, and city dwelling problems, creation of jobs, self-sufficiency of agricultural products such as rice, tea, and silk, political independence and lack of air pollution and other negative effects in terms of physical- spatial, socio-cultural in preserving the variety of crops. If agro-lands get changed to be non-agri ones, there would never be such benefits just mentioned. The present research aims at finding the reason for land application change in 30 villages of central section chosen by the use of Koran formula so that the physical, social, cultural, economic, environments effects and subsequent can be identified. The methodology used here is descriptive- analytic. Data have been collected through library and field studies, and questionnaire. To analyze the data, the analytical model of SWOT is used. Findings reveal that the rules for land application change have not been very effective in preserving land. Moreover, the physical, social, cultural, economic, and environmental changes can been observed more clearly in villages especially the surrounding villages. Manuscript profile

        تحقیق حاضر با هدف تبیین رفتار کشاورزان و نگرش آنها در زمینه مدیریت تلفیقی آفات با استفاده از روش توصیفی-تحلیلی و از طریق پیمایش صورت گرفته است. ابزار اصلی تحقیق پرسشنامه ای بوده است که روایی آن از طریق بررسی دیدگاه10 نفر از اساتید و کارشناسان اجرایی دست اندرکار  وپایایی آن با استفاده از محاسبه آلفای کرونباخ (بالاتر از 7/0)تایید گردیده است. جامعه آماری تحقیق شالیکاران شرکت کننده در دوره­های آموزشی -ترویجی مدیریت تلفیقی آفات در دو شهرستان لاهیجان و املش  بوده است  که در فاصله سال­های 1391 تا 1393  تحت آموزش IPM قرار گرفته بودند.یافته­های تحقیق نشان داد که استفاده از روش­های تلفیقی(شیمیایی و غیر شیمیایی)، رهاکردن بقایای گیاهی در سطح مزارع و استفاده از کنترل بیولوژیک  با میانگین به ترتیب 27/9، 25/9و 12/9از میانگین کل 5/6 بیشترین مواردی هستند که کشاورزان  بعد از گذراندن دوره­های ترویجی تولید محصول سالم از آن استفاده نموده­اند.همچنین شرکت­های مشاوره­ای ترویج خصوصی، ناظران برنج، مروجین و مربیان کشاورزی، و تلویزیون با میانگین به ترتیب 14/11، 87/10، 80/10 و 71/10 از میانگین کل  49/7 بیشترین سهم را در اطلاع­رسانی به کشاورزان داشته­اند.با توجه به نتایج پزوهش آموزش زنان روستایی و استفاده از افراد جوان و تحصیل کرده خانوارهای کشاوزان به عنوان بازوان ترویج کشاورزی در انتقال نوآوری مدیریت تلفیقی آفات به درون خانواده پیشنهاد می­گردد.
