The aim of present research is landslide hazard zoning using Bayesian theory in a part of Golestan province. For this purpose, landslides inventory map was created by landslide locations of landslide database (392 landslide locations). Then, the maps of effective parameters in landslide such as slope degree, aspect, altitude, slope curvature, geology, land use, distance of drainage, distance of...

The aim of this research was to generate a landslide hazard zoning map by using the multivariate linear regression method in the Kohsar Watershed, Northwest of Tehran. Initially, we used field surveys, local interview and review of studies outside and inside of Iran. Eleven effective factors were recognized on landslide. These factors included: slope degree, slope aspect, elevation, lithology, ...

The current study used habitat suitability index to evaluate habitat suitability of Servak forested area located near Yasouj for the Persian squirrel. Habitat variables including elevation, slope, aspect, density of vegetation cover, height of tree, tree diameter, canopy area of tree, distance to roads, distance to villages, and distance to rivers were used in this evaluation. Results showed th...

Background and objective: Landslide susceptibility zoning using different methods is one of the landslide management strategies. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the landslides susceptibility in the Bar watershed in Khorasan Razavi province using the support vector machine (SVM) algorithm. Method: First, the landslide layer of the area was corrected through field visits and Google Earth...

Due to the drought and land use changes in recent years, the phenomenon of storm dust in Iran is increasing as a dangerous environment. Dust influences climate change and human health, causing serious damage. The subject of this research is to identify and prepare a map of sensitivity of dust source area for controlling and determining the role of each of the factors affecting its occurrence us...
