Abstract

Shoor river watershed has the area of 17000 km2, 42% of the watershed is plain and the rest is pediment. In investigation of the effect of GEOLOGICAL CRITERION on land degradation in geomorphological units, first a part of Shoor river watershed was selected on geological map in sucha way that different consolidated and unconsolidated geological materials which are effective on land degradation and DESERTIFICATION are included. After determination of the studied area, the maps of slope and land uses were prepared and overlaid and the map of homogeneous units was prepared. In this research, three indices consisting of ERODIBILITY, SALINITY and PERMEABILITY of rock units were chosen, by field and laboratory analyses and finally their classified maps were prepared, they were then overlaid and zonation map of the area according to the three indices were presented. Due to the fact that the determination of DESERTIFICATION intensity or potential in homogeneous units by using mathematical or statistical equations is not possible, therefore, the concept of FUZZY LOGIC was used for zonation that after determination of the weight or value of the factors, fuzzy algebraic sum, fuzzy algebraic product and fuzzy gamma were used. The results obtained from the comparison of maps prepared using different fuzzy operators with a control map and maximum and minimum measured DESERTIFICATION in the studied region, has shown that the most suitable fuzzy operator for DESERTIFICATION potential or intensity in the studied area is 0.8 gamma fuzzy function. Finally by overlaying the zonation map of DESERTIFICATION intensity with respect to GEOLOGICAL CRITERION and the geological map, different geological units were characterized based on their DESERTIFICATION effect.
