Abstract

Agriculture lands and the habitats established on the hill sides of Iran mountainous regions, due to instabilities are being damaged each year. The studies show that different items including VEGETATION COVER and LAND USE changes as the two important factors play a great role in changing MORPHODYNAMIC of hill sides. In this research the mountainous basin of Ahaar at the north part of Tehran has been reviewed for this purpose as a case study. Development of human activities in the recent years with different aims in this basin has increased the risk of HILLSIDES’ movement. In order to study the MORPHODYNAMIC process of HILLSIDES, the photos of land sat 5& 7 satellites (ETM+, TM) have been used and analyzed in Geomatica-Pca software as the main tools of research. Then the map of VEGETATION COVER and LAND USE of the area has been derived from the said photos. The technique used for this research was time comparison of VEGETATION COVER changes by the said photos and drawing the map of these changes. In order to control the obtained changes through indirect visit, a great deal of field works has been performed and the situations were controlled and compared with GPS unit. The results obtained from comparing the map of changes intensity incurred in VEGETATION COVER and LAND USEs and its comparing with dispersion map of hillside movements indicates that the frequency of slope instabilities have a correlation with the areas exposed to VEGETATION COVER and LAND USE changes. Construction activities particularly with the aim of residing and second houses around Tehran, also the increase of rural population has developed rapidly during the recent years. This development has caused the great use of HILLSIDES or trenching, leveling and disturbance of their balance in order to decrease the slope and consequently removal of VEGETATION COVER have been the main cause of instabilities during the recent years.
