Iran’s Persian Garden is one of the sites inscribed on UNESCO’s List in 2011. The property includes nine gardens in as many provinces. They exemplify the diversity of Persian garden designs that evolved and adapted to different climate conditions while retaining principles that have their roots in the times of Cyrus the Great, 6th century BC. Always divided into four sectors, with water playing an important role for both irrigation and ornamentation, the Persian garden was conceived to symbolize Eden and the four Zoroastrian elements of sky, earth, water and plants. These gardens, dating back to different periods since the 6th century BC, also feature buildings, pavilions and walls, as well as sophisticated irrigation systems. They have influenced the art of garden design as far as India and Spain. Persian Garden is a well-known garden style in the world. Besides overcoming the environmental restraints, creators of Persian Gardens have also manifested cultures and beliefs of people living in this land in their work; and that’s the reason orientalists have known Persian Garden a symbol of “Promised Paradise”. Persian Garden is in a great harmony with its natural and cultural surroundings and cannot be identified segregated from Iran’s characteristics and peoples’ culture and belief. Cultural Landscape Association (CLA) is planning to organize a specialized tour and workshop called “Taste Paradise” in an international level for the experts, in order to get a better global recognition for Persian Garden and the elite to know it further.

The present study was done to better understand and update the fauna of Culicidae and to find out the distribution and the type of their larval habitats in Kashan County. Methods: This study was done in four districts of Kashan County (Central, Qamasr, Niasar and Barzok). Mosquito lar- vae were collected from 23 active larval habitats using a standard 350ml capacity mosquito dipper from April to late December 2019. The collected larvae were transferred to containers containing lactophenol, and after two weeks indi- vidually mounted in Berlese's fluid on a microscope slide and identified to species by morphological characters and valid keys. Results: In this study, a total of 9789 larvae were collected from urban and rural areas in Kashan County. The identified genera were Anopheles, Culiseta and Culex.

  • The Evaluation of Ecological Sustainable Development Capacities in Kashan: an Historic City of Iran
    Sustainable Development and Planning V 371 The evaluation of ecological sustainable development capacities in Kashan: an historic city of Iran N. Marsousi & A. R. Lajevardi Payame Noor University, Department of Geography, Iran Abstract This paper is trying to evaluate the ecological capacities of the environment for sustainable development in the urban sprawl of Kashan in its future developments. So we evaluate the land capacities as the most important ecological factor. Kashan is an historical city in Iran, which is famous for its Persian carpet manufacturing. It has experienced the sprawl growth in recent decades. The methodology of this study is analytical-descriptive. The results show that: 67% of physical development of Kashan between the years 1938 to 2007 is caused by population growth, and 33% of it is due to sprawl growth. Also the existing Kashan land capacities can accept more than double of the existing population (572,508). In other words, it can have 2.13 times population growth in the following 30 years with the same urban area. Keywords: sprawl, urban land, ecological capacities, sustainable development, Kashan. 1 Introduction Urban sprawl has been the most important barrier to urban sustainable development and that it prepares grounds for social unrest and insecurity [1]. Studies show that the cities with sprawl have suffered from greater losses when unexpected events have occurred [2]. Also the sprawl causes the density of the population distribution, requiring the need for much more services and authorities are forced to spend more for those services in comparison to the time when the city has the extensions in height and this makes the misdistribution of WIT Transactions on Ecology and the Environment, Vol 150, © 2011 WIT Press www.witpress.com, ISSN 1743-3541 (on-line) doi:10.2495/SDP110311 372 Sustainable Development and Planning V the services in the city, and basically there comes some weaknesses in this regard in a way that sometimes results in some dissatisfactions [3].

Rodents have an important role in the distribution of diseases in an area. Sometimes, the distribution of a particular disease in an area depends on the distribution of rodents in that area. This study focuses on the distribution of rodent- related diseases in Iran. Rodent-borne and rodent-related diseases and diseases with suspected relationship with rodents have been reviewed in this study. Iran, due to the circumstances in which different species of rodents are able to live, has a high prevalence of certain diseases associated with rodents in urban and rural areas. Awareness about the distribution of rodent-related diseases can be a great help to rodent’s control and prevention against the spread of the diseases. Keywords Rodent disease . Disease transmission .
