Extended Abstract Introduction Changing the use of land is one of the most important challenges in land use planning and has a direct impact on many issues in metropolitan communities. Due to land use changes in cities, patterns of land use patterns vary, and these patterns have different forward forces in different regions. By identifying and measuring the level of influence and the impact of these forces, it is possible to prevent urban problems resulting from the unplanned use of the plan by correctly planning land use changes based on sustainable land use development. Considering the role of forces in urban land use changes and changing the way these forces are influenced by the differences in spatial-temporal conditions, political syst

The purpose of this paper is to show which discourses are influenced by tourism media texts produced. The method of this research is critical discourse analysis based on Fairclough theory and the three stages of Fairclough critical discourse analysis have been completed. The data of this research are qualitative and from media texts; Lectures, reports, interviews with experts and tourism managers of Iran during the Corona have been obtained.

High levels of air pollutants in the Tehran city are a serious threat to the citizens' health, which are also occupying the city authorities' minds in the recent years. In this research, our attempt is to identify the highly polluted districts among the 22, which are exposed to widespread toxic gases, and to evaluate their distributive effects on the population density in the same districts. The studied pollutants were CO, O3, NO2, SO2, and PM2.5. The pollutant content data was collected from pollution-measuring stations. The main pollutant is CO, changing into suspended particles of PM2.5. Comparisons made between the maps produced on the pollution density levels and population densities in the five districts of 2, 6, 10, 11, and 12 at the
