        Security is a concept that includes all aspects and dimensions of human life. Establishment of security in geographical spaces requires special measures and plans and is relates with many issues such as economical security, political and military security, social security, health security and environmental security. Sistan and Baluchestan province, due to the special geographical position, is very vulnerable in terms of security and in recent years has seen an increase in violence and armed conflict by militant groups. Although the roots of unrests are consider as political issues, but cannot ignore the effect of economic deprivation and low development indicators. In general we can say that there is a greater incidence of insecurity in underdeveloped contexts. Considering that more than 50 percent of the population of this Sistan and Balochistan province still lives in rural areas and rural population growth in the region is high, therefore, to achieve sustainable security we should consider security issues in rural areas. The results indicate that rural areas of this province have faced several challenges in different aspects of security, economic, social and environmental vulnerability. For sustainable security in rural areas, it is necessary that rural development strategy should be considered. Manuscript profile

        Sistan and Baluchestan province, as one of the most strategic provinces in the east of the country, has always caused many security incidents in different parts of the province. It emphasizes the Shiite religion as the official religion of the country, so one of the ways to achieve the indicators of convergence is the religion of Islam. The purpose of this study was to "explain the role of Islam in the integration of the Baluch people and its impact on social security in Sistan and Baluchestan province."The present study is of applied type and in terms of descriptive analytical method and statistical population as a whole and the obtained results are "Islam as the most important component of the convergence of Baluch people through the principles of common religion between Shiites and Sunnah - belief in a common prophet - belief The rule of denying the mustache - common religious holidays, etc., has an effect on the convergence of the Baloch people.

        Heavy rains often lead to destructive floods, so discovering the prevailing pattern any climate system will allow for optimal analysis and forecasting. The present study was conducted to explain the synoptic of heavy rainfall leading to floods on 22 January 2020 in southern Sistan and Baluchestan province. Maps of different levels of the atmosphere were analyzed before a day the flood. In order to accomplish this, the required data have been extracted from NCEP/NCAR affiliated with the National Organization of the Oceanography of the United States. In the next step, the geo-potential height, vorticity, omega, wind direction, wind speed, specific humidity, Moisture Flux Convergence maps and Hoff Miller diagram was drawn and analyzed. The results showed that settle of trough vorticity in Saudi Arabia zone in the middle of the atmosphere along with the jet core at the upper levels provided favorable conditions for unstable weather and ascent in the southeastern region of Iran, so that the omega reached 0.45 Pascal per second. Special humidity maps also showed that at the same time as the settle of trough vorticity in region, considerable moisture flowed from the Arabian Sea and the Persian Gulf to southeastern Iran. Therefore, rapid conversion of atmospheric moisture to precipitation in trough vorticity has been the main cause of heavy rainfall on the above day. Manuscript profile

        Rural settlements, as the smallest geographical unit, have been formed under the influence of various factors in the geographical context and in the form of human-environment relations. Rural areas around the world tend to offer similar characteristics. Populations are spatially dispersed. Agriculture is often dominant and in some cases the economic sector and the opportunities to mobilize resources are limited. The aim of this study is to evaluate and analyze the population structure of rural settlements in Sistan and Baluchestan province. The research method is descriptive-analytical according to the research topic; the purpose is applied and the data have been collected by documentary method. The statistical population in this study includes all rural settlements in Sistan and Baluchestan province in 2016. Spatial correlation tests in Geoda software and Moran’s I have been used to analyze the data. The results of Moran correlation show that the amount of spatial correlation is significant and positive in all cases at the 95% confidence level and there are significant differences in terms of spatial pattern. Also, there is always a big difference between different regions of the province in terms of distribution of specified criteria. Manuscript profile

        Introduction: The variety of quantity and quality of active ingredients as well as the antioxidant function of medicinal plants under different ecological conditions has made plants as a valuable and natural source of new antioxidants in the focus of researchers. Salvia rhytidea Bent is one of the native medicinal plants of Sistan and Baluchestan and Kerman provinces. The genus Salvia belongs to the genus Lamiaceae, with more than 311 species worldwide, especially in tropical and temperate regions. The present study is carried out to evaluate the phytochemical compounds such as total phenolic and total flavonoid contents, antioxidant and antibacterial activities of three extracts (Methanolic, Ethanolic and Aqueous) of Salvia rhytidea Bent from natural habitats of Kerman and Sistan and Baluchestan province.Experimental:  Phenolic and Flavonoid contents were determined by Folin-Ciocaltiu, Aluminum Chloride colorimetric and antioxidant activities were studied by two methods (DPPH and FRAP) and antimicrobial activities were estimated by Disk-Diffusion Agar and MIC methods against 3 bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, Escherichia coli and 2 fungis Aspergillus niger and Candida albicans.Results and Disscussion: The results showed that, the methanolic extract of S. rhytidea from Sistan and Baluchestan province had high amount of secondary compounds (phenolic and flavonoids: 35.12 ± 2.11 mg GAE/g extract, 29.13 ± 1.12 mg QUE/g extract) and activities (antioxidant activities: IC50= 27.28 ± 2.12 µg/ml, 49.17 ± 2.21 mM Fe2+/mg Sample, and antimicrobial activities against Staphylococcus aureus with the diameter of inhibition zone 25 ± 1.41). Aqueous extract of S. rhytidea from Kerman province had minimum amount of secondary compounds (phenolic and flavonoids: 10.72 ±1.21 mgGAE/g extract, 6.14 ± 0.24 mgQUE/g extract) and activities (antioxidant activities: IC50= 173.12 ± 4.16 µg/ml, 7.66 ± 0.23 mM Fe2+/mg Sample, and antimicrobial activities against Escherichia coli with the diameter of inhibition zone 9 ± 0.19 mm).  The extraction method of the extract and the appropriate solvent play an important role in the extraction of secondary compounds. Methanol solvent has played an important role in the extraction of phenolic and flavonoid secondary compounds, and these compounds have led to antioxidant and antimicrobial properties, so that methanolic extracts have the highest amount of total phenols and flavonoids and the most antioxidant effect. Among the studied extracts, methanolic extract showed the greatest effect in all evaluations. Also, the antioxidant power of methanolic extract of this plant was so high that it was almost close to the antioxidant power of synthetic antioxidants ascorbic acid (10.75 ± 0.98 µg/ml, 65.75 ± 3.35 mM Fe 2+/mg Sample) and BHT (15.26 ± 1.2 µg/ml, 57.96 ± 1.53 mM Fe 2+/mg Sample) in both methods. Ethanolic extract was in the second place for both plant samples and between methanolic and aqueous extracts.Extension:  Overall, based on the results, the Salvia rhytidea can be a suitable candidate for the treatment of diseases caused by oxidative stress, and diseases caused by pathogenic microbes. Also, due to its high potential in eliminating pathogens, this plant can be a suitable alternative to antibiotics. Manuscript profile
