Abstract

This study was carried out to understand the effect of climate on the vegetation community of GORGAN PLAIN and to identify the vegetation types of the area. The vegetation types of eastern area of the Caspian sea inside of Turkiministan would be identified with this study as well. Simeteorological data of the GORGAN PLAIN area and one from the Tukimin side were analysed for a ten year period (1355-1365). As a result from the analyses, an isolite map of data collected from the seven meteorological station was produced. The climate of this area was determined by four methods (Embreget, Koppen, De Martonne, and Gaussen). The altitude of this area vary from -20 to 45 meters with hilly and low land topographies and vegetation growing on all four aspects. Vegetation study was carried out by using structural phsiognomic methods on the basis of geomorphologic units. Spatial and temporal distribution of rainfall and its regimes were calculated too. The highest rainfall is in December and Feburary months and the lowest rainfall is in June and August months. The average rainfall is 230 mm which is originated from graphic, cyclonic and convective regimes. The climate type is MEDITERRANIAN semi-arid for this area. Climate and geographical aspects were the major parameters which affected on the plant communities. The rainfall is high in the western and northern parts but it is low in the southern and eastern parts of the studied area. The vegetation regrowth of this area is in winter months specially in Esfand. The depth of the hills' soil in this area is low because these soils are sensetive to erosion and they are very dry. The most dense plant species are growing in the northern aspects are Poa bulbosa and Artemisia herba alba. The plant species that are growing on the southern aspects are Stipa capansis and Suaeda maritima.The climate and topography of southern part of Turkiministan are the same as the studied area in Iran and is expected that the vegetation would be the same, also. It seems that the co-project between the two countries' scientists to study the climate, vegetation and geobotany is necessary for this area.
