Analysis of Changes of Land use/Cover by using SWOT Matrix for Compling Solution for Land Use Sustainable Management of land use in Taleghan, Iran

Authors

Abstract:

  Substantial population growth and urbanization arbitrarily banning the exploitation of natural resources and environmental factors adversely impacts the environment and resources necessary for nutrition and healthy life styles. The secret to success and survival of ecosystems depends on a stable, continuous monitoring of the environment. The SWOT model has been developedto consider all internal and external aspects.  In this study, to analyze land use and cover changes in Taleghan,we have used SWOT as a qualitative approach to develop sustainable land management. Taleghan is a town in Alborz Province located within the Taleghan watershed. Referring to the SWOT analysis matrix sustainable tourism development was presented as the best strategy for SO,imposed regulations of soil and water pollution by the health centers as the best strategy for ST, avoidance of land use changes as the best strategy for WO, and finally the range management plan to reduce surface both runoff and soil erosion as the best strategy for WT.However, the proposed diagram of sustainability (IUCN) has two indicators,the ecosystem's quality and acceptance and lifestyle desirability which is based on the ecological features and indigenous areas rooted in public participation.  Based on the above indicators, the presented solutions are more realistic which prevent disturbance to the ecosystem's natural balance which leads to sustainable development, notable in the marshes of Taleghan.

Correlation of air pollutants with land use and traffic measures in Tehran, Iran: A preliminary statistical analysis for land use regression modeling

Land use regression (LUR) models have been globally used to estimate long-term air pollution exposures. The present study aimed to analyze the association of different land use types and traffic measures with air pollutants in Tehran, Iran, as part of the future development of LUR models. Data of the particulate matter (PM10), sulfur dioxide (SO2), and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) were extracted from...
