        According to three indicators, comfort and convenience conditions without heat or cold stress for tourists in Yasuj city, 6 to 7% of the total days of the year, i.e. about one month, which is based on the PET index, in April and based on PMV and SET indices are in late May and early June. According to PET and PMV indices, the tourism climate in Yasuj in a year is mainly cold to very cold with severe to very severe cold stress, while the conditions of the tourism climate according to the SET index are cool to very cool. Compared to the climatic realities, it seems that the PMV index better than the other two indicators reflects the tourism calendar of Yasuj city both in terms of determining the most appropriate tourism time and in terms of the main conditions of the tourism climate during the year. Regarding the study of the trend of tourism climate indicators and the parameters affecting them, the results show that the parameters of dry temperature and vapor pressure from February to July have an increasing trend and from August to January have a decreasing trend. The parameters of humidity, wind speed and cloudiness from February to July have no trend and from August to January have a decreasing trend. PET, SET and PMV indices have a trend in all months of the year except July, so that they have an increasing trend from February to July and a decreasing trend from August to January.

        Due to the time consuming and uneconomical use of dynamic models, the use of downscaling climatic exponential methods has increased. In this study, the results of HadGEM2-ES, MIROC and NoerESM1-M climatic models that were calibrated by CCT toolbox after simulating daily climatic parameters of daily precipitation, maximum and minimum temperature in the Karganrood basin in Gilan province, Iran. The meteorological data of Bandar Anzali synoptic station during 1975-2018 was used as the observation period. Daily parameters of precipitation, maximum and minimum temperature of Karganrood watershed were simulated under RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios in the next three periods of 2050-2025, 2051-2075 and 2100-2076, respectively, and compared with the observation period. NS, R2 and RMSE evaluation indices were used to evaluate the climate models HadGEM2-ES, MIROC and NoerESM1-M. The results of this study showed that the comparison of changes in future temperature data of the region using climatic models used with the observation period according to Mann-Kendall test is not random and under the influence of factors, in addition to correlation, a significant trend showed that the highest levels of significance were related to maximum temperature (Z = 4.04) and minimum temperature (Z = 4.6) at 95% confidence level in NoerESM1-M climate model and in the next period of 2051- 2075, respectively is under RCP8.5 scenario and its rate is increasing.

        During historical periods, numerous biological hazards and epidemics such as malaria, influenza, etc. on a global scale have caused irreparable damage to human habitats. Meanwhile, one of the biological hazards that has spread to all parts of the world since 2019 is the outbreak of the corona virus (Covid-19). Considering the negative effects of this disease (human health, social and economic) in different areas and living conditions of cities, the purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of this risk in urban areas of Tabriz and provide solutions to improve the situation and exposure to other epidemics. Therefore, the present study is applied in terms of purpose and in terms of analytical-exploratory nature which has been used the qualitative model of Q-factor analysis for data analysis. The statistical population of the study also includes managers and urban experts and academic elites whose sample size was determined using the Delphi method of 15 people. Based on the model of factor analysis of Q and variance extracted, it can be said that three factors or economic, environmental and socio-individual effects have been expressed in line with the effects of Corona virus in Tabriz, which explain 76.822% of the total variance. Also, the most important effects of the coronavirus outbreak are related to economic components such as weakening the economic structure of the city, loss of job security, lower incomes and savings, and rising unemployment and downsizing in some economic sectors.

        Temperature assessment and forecasting is one of the most practical estimates of climatic elements. Today, the agricultural and industrial sectors are highly dependent on the temperature conditions. Temperature is one of the most important climatic meters that is one of the main factors in the climate identity of each region. The purpose of this study is to make a model for predicting the average monthly seasonal temperature of selected stations in Lorestan province, including Al-Shatrami region. Identification and detection of vulnerabilities in the infrastructure of Aleshtar districts in the conditions of climate change. And due to the inadequacy of the 30-year time series of Al-Ashtarl, neighboring cities such as Khorramabad-Aleshtar-Borujerd synoptic stations have been used, because the artificial neural network method has a great ability to simulate and predict atmospheric elements. And the weather, especially the temperature. To model and predict the seasonal monthly temperature, the r programming tool software of the fOre gast package has been used. Two tests of estimator trend analysis have been used. The 30-year time series trend of these elements was examined during the basic statistical period (1989-2019). The climate cycle was reported and extracted under two scenarios: NNAR and forEgast. The artificial neural network is one of the most powerful models capable of receiving and displaying complex Data input and output is one of the most widely used neural network (NNA) models to determine the best network inputs.
