    Journal PaperArabian Journal of Geosciences , Volume 13 , Issue 14, 2020 July , {Pages 17-Jan }

    Abstract

    In the last decades, the frequency of dust storms has increasingly emerged in the central regions of Iran. This study investigated the SDS sources in the Salt Lake basin of Qom using daily visibility, wind speed, dust weather codes and NCEP/NCAR data, and MODIS and Sentinel-1 sensor datasets. Sample SDS days were selected by daily visibility and dust weather codes with 3-h interval ranging from 2000 to 2017. These sample SDS days were related to the 19 synoptic stations of the Salt Lake basin. Dust entry trajectories were determined through the HYSPLIT model and evaluated with the MODIS Deep Blue aerosol optical depth and atmospheric patterns. SDS sources were identified using Sentinel-1 radar images of IW mode and SLC type through radar i

    Abstract

    Introduction: Earth subsidence is one of the natural hazards under several conditions, including over-exploitation of groundwater, large dams, mining, extraction of fluids from the earth, tectonic and so on. The subsidence causes changes in the geomorphic phenomena of arid and semi-arid regions, which are important due to the occurrence of human complications on different forms, the study of changes due to subsidence in these phenomena is important. Due to the fact that the rate of change in land subsidence as well as the speed of the geomorphological phenomenon is very slow and slow, measuring instruments are of great importance. In this case, static technique is not suitable for monitoring, and dynamic techniques should be used. One techn

    Abstract

    Extended Abstract Introduction Coastal management needs to be organized at scales which are fully representative of the dynamics of the coastal system. A littoral cell is a coastal compartment that contains a complete cycle of sedimentation including sources, transport paths, and sinks. The cell boundaries delineate the geographical area within which the budget of sediment is balanced, providing the framework for the quantitative analysis of coastal erosion and accretion. The sediment sources are commonly streams, sea cliff erosion, onshore migration of sandbanks, and material of biological origins such as shells, coral fragments, and skeletons of small marine organisms. The coast of the Hormozgan province is marginal sea type and geomorpho

    Explanation of uncertainties in environmental hazard zonation using Dempster-Shafer theory. Case Study: Landslide hazard in southern Chalous

    Sabet Nasrin Mohammadi, Jalal Karami, Mohammad Sharifikia
    Journal Paper , Volume 23 , Issue 1, 2019 January 1, {Pages 24-Jan }

    Abstract

    Today, a wide range of spatial analysis models are used in environmental risk zoning. Some models, such as hierarchical and fuzzy analyzes, despite the inclusion of uncertainty in the input variables, are unable to explain quantitatively the output uncertainty. In this study, the aim of evaluating the capabilities of the Dempster-Schaeffer algorithm is to explain the uncertainty in the outcomes for landslide hazard zonation in the south of Chalus. Therefore, after field studies and review of similar studies, a map of 10 factors was provided in the GIS environment and was introduced as input data along with a map of the distribution of landslides to the model. Landslide hazard zonation was performed by integrating different weights in the De

    Abstract

    Since the population increasing and the development of agricultural activities in the south-western plain of Tehran have led to increasing underground water drainage, the assessment of the vulnerability of the areas exposing to subsidence has become more important. In this research, the vulnerability of the south-western plain of Tehran to subsidence has been investigated using ALPRIFT method in ArcGIS and optimization of the ALPRIFT method has been performed using SVM. In order to implement the ALPRIFT method, effective parameters including aquifer media, land use, groundwater pumping, recharge, aquifer thickness, faults distance and groundwater decline were used to assess the subsidence susceptibility. These are ranked in seven separate l

    Abstract

    Introduction Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) systems have been widely used in the past two decades to produce high-resolution mapping and other remote sensing applications (Calabro et al. 2010; Sun et al. 2011). The ability of penetrating to the cloud , snow dry soil as well as day and-night operation made the SAR systems with more capability compared to optical imagery (after Karjalainen et al. 2012). SAR data are widely applied for several studies geophysical and geographical approach forestry and vegetation, biomass measurements, soil moisture, natural hazards and etc. ?(Lardeux et al. 2011,Herrera et al. 2013). The present study deal with morphological landform Identification over the area covered with dense forest. ?Where is the landfor

    Abstract

    The instability and mobility of sand dunes is a major concern for those involved in the planning processes and management of arid coastal plains. Dune systems are created due to several factors and elements. Regarding environmental planning and the management of coastal zones, the study of their formation and development processes is of great importance. The present study aims at identifying the most influential factors in the dispersion of sand masses in the western region of the Makran Plain. The data for this study consisted of spatial maps of landform distributions, wind velocities and directions, fetch lengths as well as dynamic waves. Thematic topographical and geological maps, satellite images, GPS, and software such as WRPLOT View,

    Journal PaperTheoretical and applied climatology , Volume 126 , Issue 02-Jan, 2016 October 1, {Pages 35-49 }

    Abstract

    Mangrove wetlands exist in the transition zone between terrestrial and marine environments and have remarkable ecological and socio-economic value. This study uses climate change downscaling to address the question of non-stationarity influences on mangrove variations (expansion and contraction) within an arid coastal region. Our two-step approach includes downscaling models and uncertainty assessment, followed by a non-stationary and trend procedure using the Extreme Value Analysis (extRemes code). The Long Ashton Research Station Weather Generator (LARS-WG) model along with two different general circulation model (GCMs) (MIRH and HadCM3) were used to downscale climatic variables during current (1968–2011) and future (2011

    Abstract

    Airborne particulate matter with a diameter of 2.5 microns or less (PM 2.5), as well as slightly bigger particles (PM 10), arrive from the westerly direction and collect in the city centre of Tehran, the capital of Iran. The statistical characteristics and daily trend of the air quality index (AQI) in Theran were studied over an 11-year period (2002-2012). Various statistical analyses were applied including descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, trend analysis and the sequential nonparametric Mann-Kendall test. The significance of the series was investigated by regression analysis and Kriging interpolation. It was found that Tehran’s daily AQI increased by 11.8% over the study period, with the frequency distribution of days with go

    Abstract

    This study was conducted to apply the enhanced differential interferometric process to interferometric data obtained from C-band Advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar (ASAR) and Phased Array type L-Band Synthetic Aperture Radar (PALSAR) systems, in the Marand plain, Iran. In advance, the capability of each sensor was examined with regard to the signal coherency for sensor–target interactions, which emphasized on the terrific excellency of PALSAR (L-band) to ASAR (C-band) measurements in study area. In the interferometric process, in addition to resolving the topography and baseline related errors (which is conventional in the standard D-InSAR process), subtle quantitative methods were outlined to minimize the secondary, but momentous errors (
