Many human activities due to the lack of consideration in environmental restrictions on the landscape ecology are influential and have severe environmental effects on natural ecosystems. This study was conducted to investigate the trend of changes in landscape ecology in Dehloran, Ilam. For developing maps of Land cover, and analyzing the changes, we used, respectively, the satellite images of (1985) TM and (2007) ETM + were applied and landscape metrics of class area, density of patches, number of patches, mean of patches size, edge density and mean of shape index Various class-level landscape pattern metrics were calculated using FRAGTATS, in order to analyze landscape fragmentation. The analysis of landscape metrics revealed that the extensive replacement of fair rangelands by agricultural lands, rangelands, residential areas and barren lands. The results showed that increase in the number of patches and decrease in the mean of the area size was an important indicator of significant index of degradation, and the process of degradation and destruction of landscape ecology was in an increase mood. Therefore the results necessitated paying attention to the quality of land use and cover in the region for to exploit natural resources appropriately and sustainably.

Aim of this study is to identify suitable Urban Development spots with application of Environmental Criteria in Mahmoodabad Township. A series of criteria were identified by investigating various sources about the location of urban development to achieve the aim of this study. Then criteria were selected by Delphi questionnaire or survey experts. So 12 criteria and 30 subcriteria were selected for urban development site selection in Mahmoodabad Township. These remained criteria which can convert to maps were weighted with AHP method. Then criteria were converted to maps by Arc GIS software. After that the maps combined with a weighted linear combination by Arc GIS software and appropriate spots for urban development were chosen. Area of the biggest spot is 0/7 square kilometers and area of the next spot is 0/4 square kilometers. According to 26th article of executive regulations for new towns building, minimum area of a new city is 3 square kilometers. So, none of the spots are suitable for urban development. Results and the criteria which obtained in this research can be used as a guide in areas that have similar features (north coastal area of country) to Mahmoodabad Township.

Land use planning in border cities is a national problem and a national problem can not be solved with some minor attitudes. National problems that require national commitment and wisdom. In this study, the trends in land use planning and development in border cities with ANP method of sub-criteria and multi-criteria decision making approach to prioritize development and to identify spatial planning in border areas.it would be prioritized treatment spatial land use programs in two levels of criteria. spatial planning criteria (4 criteria or objective) and sub criteria (9 sub criteria with 30 indicators) with respect to the environment and the regional border city of East Azarbaijan Province was selected. The result of computation network analysis among several approaches of East Azarbaijan in first stage is determine economic Development approaches with sub criteria facilities and infrastructure, health, transportation and communications, economic activities and environmental, and second stage is develop diplomatic relations and national security and third stage is cultural and social development.

Increasing young population and rising unemployment has led to employment and related indicators of serious problems and controversial country. In conjunction with the study and research on employment provinces, a variety of variables and factors involved and It seems that the lack of balance in the distribution of these variables, social inequality, economic, political and cultural between the provinces follow. Indices of employment in the provinces spatial distribution of employment index shows. The main purpose of this study is to clarification social inequalities of employment for equal distribution of possibilities in provinces. In this paper 55 softened are used. Variables dropped to 10 by means of advanced statistics methods such as factor analysis and presented in combination with meaningful factors. The importance of every factor is given too. Then the country provinces were divided into five equal classes by the cluster analysis model. The research results indicate this fact that there are serious imbalances in the country. So that in terms of employment Tehran province is in the first and south Khorasan province in the last place.

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.

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.

Although Lorestan is a mountainous land in the middle bounds, of Zagros Mountains and has varied climate, watery rivers, new natural views, wetlands, waterfalls, lakes, forests, verdant pastures and its ancient civilization and history has excessive potential to attract tourists.

Increasing technology and population in the two recent decades have led to destructing nature and changing its land cover. Remote sensing is one of those new technologies which provide accessibility for managing earth resources. the dynamic information of remote sensing can play an effective role for monitoring and analysis of land use change using digital change detection techniques. Method used for the rate of development of remote sensing, is on the basis geometric correction, spatial and spectral enhancement of available satellite images with regard to the maximum likelihood supervised classification and post classification method. At first we produced land use maps by using the satellite images of landsat. The results of this study are, in addition to the impacts of environmental sensitivity visualization development trend based on the visual display, calculate of the land use changes together in developed area and production of digital map changes, to support land management.

Migration and its consequences have been discussed as one of the major social issues in recent years in Iran. In all official censuses, East Azerbaijan Province has the most migrants and executive managers are faced with serious challenges. This paper has analyzed migration behavior in inside and outside of East Azerbaijan province in recent three decades. Research method is descriptive and analytical and the statistic society is East Azerbaijan province. The results show that there is a populous link between East Azerbaijan province with neighbor provinces and Tehran. The majority of whom arrive to the province are from Tehran, West Azerbaijan, Kurdistan and Khuzestan provinces that include more than 70% of migrants and the main sources for immigrants from the province are Tehran, West Azerbaijan, Qom, Ardebil and Khuzestan provinces that include more than 80%. Also the main sources of who migrate inside the province are Tabriz, Maragheh, Ahar and Marand cities that include more than 50% of total immigrants and the major destination for migrants are Tabriz, Maragheh, Marand and Bonab cities that include more than 66% of them. Result's analyses show that there is not a systematic population replacement and that population exchanging occurs with cities that have more facilities and offer better services.
