Site Selection of Establishment of Small Earth Dams in semi Arid and semi Arid Zones by Spatial Multi-Criteria Evaluation (SMCE) (Case Study: Yoosef-abad Watershed)

چکیده مقاله:
Earth dams have been used widely recently in flood and sedimentation control projects and feeding ground waters in country's watersheds and correct locating for such structures is necessary for increasing their efficiency. In this work, it is attempted to determine the correct locations for constricting earth dams in Yoosef-abad watershed in Tabas using v and incorporating information layers. Thus maps for local limitation (boundary out of 10m to river), natural local factors (slope percentage, boundary to river, geomorphologic units and geological features), economical factors (Resource materials, boundary to road, boundary to aqueduct and boundary to residential area) were entered into GIS environment and heterogeneous local layers were incorporated and made homogenous and all took phase values between 0 and 1. Due to heterogeneity of layers' values, layers were weighed. Finally, layers were incorporated and combined index map was obtained, where optimal locations for constructing earth dam were given priority, and the best location for construction in the area was determined. Comparing results with field studies showed that the selected locations are acceptable in terms of engineering and meeting needs of residents, and proposed method can be generalized to other watersheds.

Water erosion is a major environmental problem in many parts of the world. Majority of semi-arid countries are concerned because of their specific climate and soils sensitivity, but also because of the recent intensification of human activities and agricultural practices. Accurate estimation of water erosion for various land-use and climate scenarios is so an important key to define sustainable...

Roads have an important role in plants dispersal on different scales. Various plant species settle on roadsides, but some of them can enter the natural environments and threaten their biodiversity. Worldwide knowledge of roadside flora is necessary for local and global management of natural areas. Accordingly, the roadside flora of Northern Khorasan rangelands was studied along the 600 km ...

The world’s arid lands are some of the most beautiful landscapes on Earth, and their paucity of vegetation often makes it possible to see landforms and structures with great clarity (Figure 1.1). In addition, they have many characteristics both in terms of landforms and geomorphological processes that render them different from other major environments (see, for example, Laity, 2008; Parsons an...
