The study stresses the contrast between Tehran and the rest of Iran, a result of the concentration of development within, the capital city, and also the contrasting patterns within the city itself, the result of rapid expansion. The first threie chapters are an attempt to consider the various processes that have contributed to the dev/elopmenit of T.ehran, which was arbitrarily chosen as capital less than two hundred years ago. Even within thiis framework contrasts due to historical or demographic differences become apparent. The first chapter looks at the physical setting and how this has influenced the growth and development of the urban area. The second chapter considers the development of the city up to the Second World War, and the importance of historical processes for spatial contrasts within) the city. Demograp^dLc characteristics axe analysed in the third chapter. The focus of the study is chapter four, in that it analyses the most important functions and activities of the capital and considers hosw these have developed, interacted, and been located by the physical environment. Transport is analysed in chapter five,; bo.th internal and external. Finally chapter six is a syyntiiesis of all. the •various processes and location pat •terms in; the context of the major land use categories. Throughout the analysis attempts are made to focus attention on the distinctisreness o£ the capital, city, hut at the same time to show haw Tehran has "been integrated initio a regional,, national, and international framework. TEHRAN: AN URBAN ANALYSIS Thesis submitted to'the Faculty of Social Sciences, University of Durham, for the degree of M.A. H. Bahrambeygui University of Durham, Durham City, England, June 1972. The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. No quotation from it should be published without his prior written consent and information derived from it should be acknowledged. • M-/)./54- PREFACE The present thesis is the result of a period of study in the Department of Geography, at the University of Durham, England where the author had training as a research student. The main aim of the study is to investigate the principle characteristics of the growth and development of Tehran, one of the largest cities in the Middle East. The main emphasis has been on describing and analysing the contemporary problems which have arisen as a result of the rapid expansion of Tehran, a city which until very recently had no comprehensive urban planning programme. The familiarity of the author with the field, in that he is a resident of Tehran, has to some extent facilated the study. Nevertheless the sprawling vastness of the city and its huge population is enough to indicate that a detailed and comprehensive study of Tehran would require the cooperation of many research workers with different fields of specialization and rapid expansion means that no study can be totally up to date. The author's particular appreciation for guiding him through the complexities of such a study must go to Mr. B.D. Clark his supervisor together with thanks for his constant patience and encouragement without which this study would not have been completed. I am also indebted to Professor W.B. Fisher, Head of the Department of Geography at Durham for kindly accepting me as a research student in his department and allowing me to have access to the Departmental library and cartographic facilities. I must also thank Professor J.I. Clarke for his kind advice and guidance. In Tehran thanks are due to Professor M. H. Ganji, Head of the Geography Department and Professor K. Vadiei, Geography Department both of Tehran University for their initial recommendation and continuous encouragement of my work and also Dr. S. Rasekh, Head of the ' ' Statistical of iran, Centre- for providing me with the Enumeration District maps of the 1956 and 1966 censuses and other information. During the course of my research programme, I received cooperation and valuable suggestions and comments from my research colleagues but I would particularly like to thank; Mr. D.J. Marsden (Anthropology Department) and Mr. K.J. Thorpe. I would like to thank all the staff of the Geography Department, the Science Library and the School of Oriental Studies especially the Middle East Documentation Centre and its Director Professor H, Bowen-Jones of the University of Durham. Finally I offer my warmest thanks to my wife for her great patience, cooperation and endurance which has never failed.

    Tehran Tehran Tehran The capital of Persia since 1789, Tehran has grown from a dusty backwater to a teeming metropolis of 800,000. In the last decade alone, Tehran has added 300,000 residents, many displaced by the earthquakes, monster attacks, and other consequences of the Serpentfall. And some of these new residents are here to play the secret game that Britain and Russia have played here–much to the distaste of Persians of all stripes–since the 19th century. But now the game is in new innings; played with a savage intensity here because Persia is almost the only court left for it. The Serpent Curtain lies across Europe, an impenetrable barrier. Turkey is surrounded by Soviet clients and conquests–and by suspicious Soviet guards. Central Asia and China are remote, plagued by warlords and bitter cold. But Persia borders Soviet territory directly, a border that moved much closer to Tehran after the Soviets annexed Persian Azerbaijan in 1946. Less than 200 miles from the expanded Azerbaijan Soviet Socialist Republic, Tehran has become Tbilisia veritable nest of spies. It draws those who would try to smuggle agents into the Soviet empire, and information out…and it draws those who would move the Soviet border yet again, all the way out to the PersianBaku Gulf and the doorstep of India.Tashkent T Stalinabad SSR A Ashgabad SSR Zanjan Tehran A S KabulSAADABAD NIAVARAN Damascus Baghdad P Evin TAJRISH Prison Red Air Force Isfahan Station SHEMIRAN I Telephone Jerusalem Abadan Exchange GHOLHAK British Mission and Cemetery R S Sample file P’ A Karachi S t Demavend J oun To M R Doshan Tappan MuscatTo Kand Airport Mehrabad Jiddah To Zanjan (Soviet Border) Aerodrome BombayTEHRAN N O DULAB Gondar A A Aden S Qul’eh Gabri Parthian Ruins SHAHRA RAYY Medieval Ruins To Garm Sar Salt Desert To Hamadan To Qom To Kavir 4 Tehran Tehran THE CHARACTER OF TEHRAN Tehran sits–and increasingly, sprawls–on the southern slopes of the Elburz Mountains, specifically Mount Demavend, an extinct volcano that towers 18,000 feet above sea level.

  • Landslide Zonation in Fasham Area of Tehran Province (Iran) Abstract Introduction
    LANDSLIDE ZONATION IN FASHAM AREA OF TEHRAN PROVINCE (IRAN) Shadi Khoshdoni Farahani, Assoc.Prof.Dr.Md Nor Kamarudin, Dr. Mojgan Zarei Nejad Faculty of Geoinformation Science and Engineering, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia 81300 Skudai, Johor, Malaysia Email: [email protected] Faculty of Geoinformation Science and Engineering, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia 81300 Skudai, Johor , Malaysia Email: [email protected] GIS Center, Solvegatan 12, 223 62 Lund, Lund University, Sweden Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Tehran province which encircles the capital of the Islamic Republic of Iran is highly momentous from the politico- socio-economic-cultural aspects. This significance has instigated the implementation of the geological, geographical and climatological studies in this state in a comprehensive and precise manner. Fasham district in the north eastern part of Tehran province which is a geologically and geographically area has been opted out in this research for semi- detailed studies. the case studied in this research is the landslide in Fasham area. Iran is one of the highly landslide prone countries due to its particular geological, topographical and climatological conditions. Heavy financial lost are reported each year due to the landslide occurrence. The transpiration of these landslides occasionally brings about other death tolls and financial lost originating from earthquakes. Some of the factors affecting this phenomenon are as follows: the alteration of the slope amplitude, geotechnical and litho logical circumstances, earthquake and trembling, tectonics motions, structural alterations, pluvial effects and snow thawing, the extermination of the vegetation, land utilization alteration. The zone under studied is prone to landslide due to various reasons such as possessing special geological conditions and special geographical position.

  • Active Tectonics of Tehran Area, Iran
    J. Basic. Appl. Sci. Res., 2(4)3805-3819, 2012 ISSN 2090-4304 Journal of Basic and Applied © 2012, TextRoad Publication Scientific Research www.textroad.com Active Tectonics of Tehran Area, Iran Mehran Arian1 *, Nooshin Bagha2 1Associate professor, Department of Geology, Science and Research branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, Iran 2Ph.D.Student, Department of Geology, Science and Research branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, Iran ABSTRACT Tehran area (with 2398.5 km2 area) extended from the east of Damavand volcano to the west of Karaj city. This area is a major part of Tehran province and according to geologic division is a minor part of Alborz zone. This area is under compressive stress and shortening that caused by Arabia – Eurasia Convergence. This situation has confirmed by dominant existence of folded structures and thrust fault system. We have investigated geologic hazards of Tehran area, because this area is the most strategic part of Iran. The major faults have been investigated and have not been found any evidences to existence of north and south Rey faults. In the other hand, active tectonic of this area has been investigated and Mosha fault has been introduced as the most active fault. The high seismic potential has been distinguished by integration of structural geology and active tectonic studies. The evaluation of movement potential of the main faults in the current tectonic regime shows the North Tehran fault has % 90 potential to movement. In addition the hazard potentials of landslides, settlements, volcanism and dams have been introduced. Finally, geologic hazard map has been prepared and has been divided to10 zones with one to four ranking of risk.

  • “Planning Eye Health Services in Varamin District, Iran: a Cross
    Katibeh et al. BMC Health Services Research (2015) 15:140 DOI 10.1186/s12913-015-0797-0 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access “Planning eye health services in Varamin district, Iran: a cross-sectional study” Marzieh Katibeh1,2*, Karl Blanchet2, Shadi Akbarian1, Sara Hosseini1,3, Hamid Ahmadieh3 and Matthew J Burton2 Abstract Background: A recent survey of avoidable blindness in Varamin District, Iran, identified moderately high levels of visual impairment (10%) and blindness (1.5%) in people >50 years. This study aimed to define current provision, identify gaps and suggest practical solutions for improving eye health services in this area. Methods: The World Health Organization (WHO) framework for analyzing health systems has several key components: service delivery, health workforce, information system, medical products and technologies, financing, and governance. We used this structure to investigate the strengths and weaknesses of the eye health system in Varamin. All public and private eye care facilities and a random selection of primary health care (PHC) units were assessed using semi-structured researcher-administered questionnaires. Results: Varamin has 16 ophthalmic clinics, including two secondary hospitals that provide cataract surgery. There were ten ophthalmologists (1:68,000 population), two ophthalmic nurses and five optometrists working in Varamin district. There were no eye care social or community workers, ophthalmic counsellors, low vision rehabilitation staff. Although the Vision 2020 target for ophthalmologists has been met, numbers of other eye care staff were insufficient. The majority of patients travel to Tehran for surgery. The recent survey identified cataract as the leading cause of blindness, despite the availability of surgical services in the district and high health insurance coverage.

  • Taghipour M., Soltanzadeh H., Afkan K. B., 2015 the Role of Spatial Organization in the Typology of Shiraz (Iran) Residential Complexes
    AES BIOFLUX Advances in Environmental Sciences - International Journal of the Bioflux Society The role of spatial organization in the typology of Shiraz (Iran) residential complexes Malihe Taghipour, Hossain Soltanzadeh, Kaveh B. Afkan Department of Architecture, College of Art and Architecture, Islamic Azad University, Tehran Central Branch, Tehran, Iran. Corresponding author: H. Soltanzadeh, [email protected] Abstract. The purpose of this study is to understand space organization, its different schemes, and its effect on the formation of residential complexes. This study was based on typology since typology can influence the classification of various organization schemes and since many other studies are also based on typology. The combined approach was implemented using library resources and comparative methodology. For this purpose, those residential complexes in Shiraz which complied with the project requirements were studied. Various residential complexes were classified in terms of scale and height by studying their aerial photographs, satellite maps and GIS pictures. Field visits were also conducted for this purpose. Based on the conducted studies, it was observed that the following organization schemes were implemented in Shiraz: 1) individual, 2) centralized, 3) clustered, 4) linear, and 5) mixed.

Esula with about 480 species is one of the most diverse and complex lineages of the giant genus Euphorbia . Species of this subgenus are usually herbaceous and are mainly distributed in temperate areas of the Northern Hemisphere. Th is paper updates the taxonomy and distribution of Euphorbia (subgen. Esula ) sect. Helioscopia in Iran since the publication of ‘ Flora Iranica ’ in 1964. We provide a key, species descriptions, illustrations (for most species), distribution maps, brief characterization of ecology as well as relevant notes for the 12 species of this section occurring in Iran. As a result of this revision, E. altissima var. altissima is reported as new for the country, and a new species from northern Iran, Euphorbia mazandaranica , is described and illustrated. With the exception of E. helioscopia , a widespread weed in temperate regions worldwide, the remaining species occur in the Alborz, Zagros and northwestern regions of Iran. Euphorbia L.
