The purpose of this study is to investigate the ability to develop suitable winter sports areas in Sepidan city. The research method is analytical-descriptive and applied. In this research, using the AHP method, the most susceptible Areas for the development of winter sports in Sepidan township have been identified. For this purpose, important factors affecting this phenomenon include; rainfall, air temperature, altitude, slope and direction of slope, communication routes, density of communication routes, distance from residential areas and land use which were used. The use of satellite images of the snow cover in combination with the hierarchical method to determine the favorable areas for the development of winter sports is the innovation of the present research.The results of weighting the criteria affecting the development of winter sports in this province showed that rainfall is of primary importance. Spatial analysis of the weight of variables affecting the development of winter sports has shown that almost all the weights obtained from the 9 variables affecting the development of tourism in the northern and northwestern regions of the township have more weight. Combining 9 layers of information with hierarchical analysis in the ArcGIS software environment and calculating the final weight leading to the extraction of 5 different classes in terms of areas prone to the development of winter ecotourism. The results showed 3.46 percent of the township's area is very suitable for tourism development.

The purpose of this research is measuring and evaluating urban livability components using environmental indicators approach based on MCDM techniques in triple neighborhoods of Ahwaz metropolis. This research is descriptive-analytic in terms of method and nature, and in terms of purpose it is an applied research. Also, data collection and required data for research were carried out in two ways of documentary and survey. Then, the data were analyzed in the first stage by SPSS software, so that the reliability of the research tool was tested by Cronbach's alpha, which is 0.882, indicating a high level of reliability of the questionnaire, and using the ANOVA test and the Tukey and Scheffe test. Urban livability status was measured using environmental sub-indicators. Subsequently, it was entered in the EXCEL software environment and using the multi-criteria decision making models of VIKOR, ELECTRE, SAW, and the caplend integration model. Three areas were analyzed in terms of urban livability with emphasis on environmental indicators ranking and prioritizing them. The final results of the research showed that based on the capland model, the Kianpars neighborhood has the highest priority as the environmental indicator of urban livability, and then Golestan and Sepidar neighborhoods were placed in the next priorities. Also, the integration of sub-indices of neighborhoods and the proportional coefficient of the three neighborhoods in Copland integration model showed that the Kianpars neighborhood in terms of urban livability with an environmental index approach in the suitable conditions, the Golestan neighborhood is in some degree suitable and the Sepidar neighborhood is in not suitable condition.

The current research is mainly aimed at determining the effective factors concerning public participation in old urban texture regeneration. Descriptive and analytic method is applied in this research and 363 residents of urban old texture in Mashhad have been selected as the samples of the study. A researcher-made questionnaire was used for data collection and the collected data were analyzed by SPSS software and using the statistical tests of chi-square, Spearman Correlation, and multiple regression. The results show that the highest effective factors in people’s participation include their trust toward the governors, prediction of the desirable results, their perception toward hygiene and welfare conditions of the desired urban neighborhoods, and possessing other income sources rather than the existing property in the old texture. Therefore, prior to the implementation of regeneration projects, it is necessary to provide confidence and trust in the people and to assure them of the desirable future of executive projects, so that real participation of the residents is possible in all stages of planning and implementation.

The purpose of the current research was to know the implementation patterns of ecological wisdom to improve livability in the desert residential buildings of Yazd city. The research method was descriptive-analytical and inferential, and the effective criteria in evaluating the implementation patterns of ecological wisdom were determined using library studies and experts' opinions. To evaluate, 20 main criteria were used. The data collection tool was a survey (purposive sampling, 4 native houses from the old context of the desert city of Yazd) and a researcher-made questionnaire with a reliability coefficient of 0.86, and the statistical community included specialists in urban planning, architecture, and the environment who are familiar with the native architecture of desert areas. The innovation of the research is to examine the relationship between ecological wisdom and the livability in desert cities, especially in the scale of building architecture. Results showed that ancient desert settlements were formed based on the principles and rules of ecological wisdom and are a symbol of sustainability. Therefore, regenerating the principles of ecological wisdom in multiple scales can be the basis for improving the sustainability and livability of contemporary urban contexts.

The aim of the current research is to study and predict hazardous extreme temperatures in some cities of central Iran, for this purpose the minimum and maximum temperature data of 15 meteorological stations (cities: Esfahan, Shahreza, Natanz, Nain, Ardestan, Semnan, Shahroud, Garmsar, Damghan, Yazd, Bafaq, Gariz, Meibod, Qom and Salafchagan) were collected for the time period (1999 - 2019) and analyzed using the innovative method of hybrid artificial neural network and ANFIS adaptive neural network model. Finally, Topsis and Saw multi-variable decision-making models were used to prioritize more exposed areas of temperature increase. The results of this study showed that according to ANFIS modelling for predicting station temperatures, the lowest mean educational error and the average error of validation for the minimum temperature, with a value of 0.010 was for the station Yazd and 1.66% for Damghan station. The lowest mean educational error and the mean error of validation for the maximum temperature curve were obtained at 0.016 for Garmsar station and 9.39% for Shahroud station, respectively. The maximum temperature fringe based on the Topsis model of two stations of Garmsar and Bafgh with a percentage of 1 and 0.96, will be in higher priority with increasing temperature. Based on the Saw model, Garmsar and Salafchegan stations with the highest percentages i.e., 1 and 0.98, respectively, were exposed to higher temperatures.
