        Vest parts of the central and eastern of Iran are covered by mountain basin-rangedeserts. These deserts have developed during the quaternary alternating between dryand wet climatologically conditions, and now that earth is going through aninterglacial age, they are passing through a dry period. In such conditions, when thedesert landforms seem to be stabilized for short periods; rapid changes take place indesert geomorphic systems due to human-induced changes in the environment.Road construction has a great impact in deserts than the other human activities. Thisarticle, using air photos and satellite images and, particularly, field data, discusses theeffect of road construction on geomorphic instability of alluvial fan surfaces, playa anddesert pavements. The results show that:1. Road construction operations carried out on the surface of dry alluvial fans changethe equilibrium profile of main and secondary channels, resulting in intense verticalerosion;2. Road construction carried out in playa environments disrupt the balance of waterand sediments of surface streams and the terminal basin, bringing about changes inlandform boundaries.3. Road construction operations carried out on desert pavements in the resumption ofdeserts, causing wind deflation. Manuscript profile

        4 - Geochemical and Sedimentary Changes of the Mighan Playa in Arak, Iran

        The Mighan Playa is the largest playa in Markazi Province. Sedimentary and soil structures show that during all phases the playa was ephemeral. The duration and frequency of flooding varied causing variations in the relative amounts of accumulation, and soil formation. The clastic fraction of the playa sediment consists of quartz, mica and chlorite while the non-clastic evaporite fraction is dominated by gypsum, calcite, glauberite, thenardite and halite. Using the principle of chemical divides, such variations in mineralogy have been explained in terms of a change in brine chemistry from Na-Ca-Mg-SO4-Cl to Na-SO4-Cl type. It is also suggested that at an earlier stage, Mighan playa brine underwent evaporation under the conditions of Ca>alkalinity whereas in more recent times, the evaporite mineralogy has developed with alkalinity>Ca. The shallow depth cores are divided into distinct geochemical units based on elemental ratios. Units I and III reflect high chemical weathering whereas the middle unit, II, indicates relatively low weathering and enrichment in evaporates Manuscript profile

        Water resources are one of the most important components of land life and sustainable development. In the present study, the study of time series changes in the area of ​​Jazmourian Playa water areas, using the surface reflection data of Landsat 8 satellite from 2013 to 2019, was considered and the Modified Normalized Water Difference Index (MNDWI) was used to separate the water areas on the images. Then the trend of changes in the area of ​​water areas was estimated. All of these processes and satellite image analysis were performed in the Google Earth Engine software environment, which is a web and open source system for performing spectral and radiometric analyzes on satellite images. ArcGIS 10.5 software was also used to prepare spatial maps. . Findings showed that the area of ​​the seasonal lake of Jazmourian Lake is estimated to be 21426 Km based on MNDWI index, approximately 1515 Km based on automatic water extraction index (AWEI) and 1610 Km2 based on water absorption ratio (WRI) index. On the other hand, the analysis of surface water production of Landsat images showed that the highest rate of change was related to temporary seasonal and new seasonal water zones, so that changes in temporary seasonal zones occupied an area of ​​about 11245 km2 and new seasonal surface zones about 35355 km2. Is. Jazmourian plain water intake is related to the occurrence of seasonal floods and increased rainfall in the basin, so that a high correlation (R2 = 0.89) between the annual rainfall of the basin and the increase in the area of ​​water areas resulting from the MNDWI index has been observed.

        Soil salinity is one of the most important factors affecting plant growth. Haloxylon salicornicum (Moq.) Bunge ex Boiss., as a salt tolerant specie grows in a wide range of desert lands and has a significant impact on wind erosion control. The present study investigated the effects of different soil conditions (soil saline and non-saline-sodic playa -sand), on amino acids and minerals of H. salicornicum. Sampling was done Completely randomized design with three replications. The results showed that in both habitats, serine has the highest contribution to the formation of the content of total amino acids of the H. salicornicum .The content of total amino acid in the two regions was significantly different at 1% level (p <0.01), the highest amounts of total amino acid (414.75 ppM) measured in sandy habitat and lowest amount (268.38 ppM) measured playa habitat. Sparic acid, glutamate, serine, glycine, alanine, tyrosine, valine, methionine in the sandy habitat was more than Playa. While glutamine and threonine in Playa had a higher content. Mineral analysis showed that the highest amount of phosphorus, sodium, chlorine, iron, manganese, zinc and copper in playa and most of nitrogen were in sandy area. Accumulation of ions such as sodium in plant tissues in playa is the most important physiological response of H. salicornicum to the regulation of osmotic potential. The role of osmolites such as Amine acids are considered at a later stage. Manuscript profile
