2012
Varesi, Hamid | Rajaie Jazin, Abbas | Ghanbari, Mohammad
Industrial revolution has had disadvantages despite its numerous advantages in all areas of human societies. One of the main problems our city planning is faced with these days which is caused by inappropriate special structure is the uncontrolled expansion and growth of cities. Urban sprawl growth is not limited to large cities but it has happened to small cities and middle cities as well. An example of such cities is Gonabad city and has had uncontrollably expansion throughout its life. The method of research in this study is an analytic-comparative and Shanon and Holdern entropy models are used together with ARC GIS software for preparing the maps and then the city growth pattern of Gonabad is analyzed at the end. The results that have been achieved from Shannon’s Entropy model, shows that physical development of Gonabad city have been reduce during the last ten years. Though this development has been irregular and uncompressed. Applying Holden’s model about Gonabad shows that during the years 1956-2006 around 51% of physical development has been a growth in population and 49% has been the horizontal and sprawl growth of the city that caused a reduction in population gross density and an increase in gross urban land per person.

Hatami Nejad, Hossein | Rabbani, Taha | Mohammadi Varzaneh, Naser | Asadi, Saleh
Perception of urban development process in urban planning and management of sustainable urban development is important. In this paper physical and spatial development of Varzaneh city is studied and, after recognition of its potentials and restricts with using Boolean model and overlaying in GIS and also calculation of requisite space for the added future population optimum strategies for future development is suggested. The method of the research is descriptive-analytic and method of data gathering is documental-library. In order for completion of data and monitoring urban development of Varzaneh, we have accomplished field study and group interview with Varzaneh people. The results of the research indicated that initially urban development of Varzaneh has been was self-growing and have happened around the center of the city, but because of existing agric cultural lands. It was impossible to develop the core and the new city along with the old city has been developed (they separate from each other by the river). In new developing plans direction of development is to the north. The results also signified that not only it’s not necessary to expand the city for future development even when population are threefold rather than now but also altitudinal development of city is possible due to the free lands, urban sprawl and one- floor buildings.

Ezzatian, Victoria | Danesh Amooz, Zabihallah
Hydro geomorphology is a branch of natural geography that deals with studying the shapes of ups-and-downs which are resulted from the function of the water and streams, especially the rivers. Recognizing and expressing the hydro geo morphological elements and their functions on the primary structural surface in the Kheir Abad basin and also providing some practical plans to recognize and manage the environment of the region are very important. This region is considered as a sub-region of the Zohreh River in Kohkiloyeh & Boyer Ahmad province and this river is a sub-basin of the Persian Gulf basin. The Kheir Abad River is located in the province of Kohkiloyeh & Boyer Ahmad in Gachsaran County (located in the northeastern part of the region) which is the only main streaming river of this region that originates from the various subordinate streams (often as the seasonal rivers) of the northern, northeastern, eastern and southern altitudes, and finally it reaches to the Zohreh River in Kohkiloyeh County. The followings are the purposes of the present study: analyzing the role of the hydro geo morph logical elements of the region regarding to capabilities and limitations of the natural prospects and landscapes, providing some suggestions and strategies and applications for the region in the framework of the capabilities and limitations to reasonably use the available resources. The present and applied method in this study includes a filed one that can be a suitable method to achieve investigative purposes and evaluate the hypotheses. Examining the physiographic, hydrological and hydro geo morphological elements, the geology, climatology, soil and flora and filed studies in the region with the help of determining and analyzing the influential elements in land-forming process, Geo morphological shapes which are present in the region and their developmental conditions reveal significant role of streams.

2012
Kowkabi, Lila | Ghadiri Masum, Mojtaba
Industrialization and Urban sprawl together with population growth and increases in water consumption cause water pollution and destruction of natural resources quality; these are followed by reducing access to available resources such as drinking water. Every year a significant amount of urban waste water is discharged to water resources, while natural treatment is impossible. Cities in each level require different facilities and infrastructure. optimal resource utilization with appropriate site selection for water & wastewater facilities have an important role in water quality in the major cities and can control water pollution, so it has been considered to increase the quality of life in cities, also the neglect of attention to climate condition such as morphology, hydrology and topography cause negative impacts on urban environment. There are different models and methods to select suitable sites for facilities. They are specifically important in arid land where water resources have become increasingly scarce. One of the methods is zoning. In this paper satellite images have been used to locate facilities in a typical arid city in Iran, Shiraz. The large-scaled (landscape scale) land use maps has been prepared for Shiraz-Neiriz water basin, and the distinctive zones were determined base on arid and semi arid geo-hydro morphology. Then each zone were analyzed using large-scale land use, soil and topographic factors to determine adequate potential sites for facilities by regarding sustainable development and considering the cumulative effects of upstream area. At the end, some suggestions were determined to reduce urban environment pollution.

2012
Kabiri Hendi, Maryam | Danekar, Afshin | Khorasani, Nematollah
Natural sites with cultural value are one of the most important biological and cultural diversity reservoirs which have been conserved over several centuries by people. But in the present era, due to the lack of conservation criteria and also because of human activities, these sites have been threatened. The aim of this paper is to prioritize criteria for identification of conservation zones with cultural value. At first essential criteria for the aims of the survey were identified, and then assembled in a new structure. On the whole, 12 criteria were identified for the selection of protected areas, afterwards based on the Delphi method these criteria were screened out and the criteria landscapes with cultural values, intangible cultural assets, legal protection, tangible cultural assets, geographical region with natural value, social tendency, social institutions, unique natural landscape, geographical region with cultural value, specific species, conservation importance and social dependency; respectively, were considered important.
