Abstract

The phenomenon of DUST storm causes a number of damages such as aggravation of heart or lung disease, air and land traffic. Occurrence of DUST storm has been growing inrecent years and has created many problems in some cities of IRAN. DUST storms of IRAN arise either from internal or external sources. In this paper, Climatology of DUST storms in IRAN is compiled based on observational data of 112 meteorological stations from 1985 to 2005. Results show that the total number of DUST stormy days varies from 11 to 3833. Accordingly, we have identified five types of cities; 1- less than 492 days; 2- from 588 to 1153 days; 3- from 1243 to 1757 4 days; from 2007 to 2239 5 days; 5- more than 3832 days. Afterwards, we examined each of them separately. The first group is fixed. Cities of this group are located mostly in North, East and Center of IRAN. The second group contains three parts: First, an ascending trend to 1992 and then a descending part to 1998 and again, an ascending part to 2005. Cities of second group are located in the southern pasrt of the country. The third group contains four parts: First, a down trend to 1990 and then an ascending part to 1993 and again, a descending part to 1998 and finally, a branch of the ascending to 2005. Cities of the third group are located almost in the southwest. The cities of the fourth group are located in Sistan & Baloochestan province and are affected by the120-day wind. The occurrence of DUST storm in the fourth group is ascending. Finally, using GIS and interpolation systems, we have plotted DUST storm zone classification map of IRAN from 1998 to 2005.
